INSOMNIAC SmartLock R

Graphic SmartLockO FeatureCallout IoE Aug2024 04

Retrofittable on a variety of hasps and doors

Designed for easy installation on most flat and corrugated doors, the SmartLock R and O retrofit over your unit doors’ existing hasps in minutes, whereas the SmartLock S replaces the hasps completely. If you are unsure which model would work best for your facility, reach out to your Business Development Team.

Built for extreme security and durability

Rated to an impressive IP56 for durability, the SmartLock’s robust steel construction is resistant to drilling and can withstand heavy usage, varying weather conditions, and tamper attempts — and still look as good as the day you got it. It is also resistant to severe weather, including hurricanes and even tsunamis, and is rated for outdoor temperatures of -40 ºC to 85 ºC.

Extended Battery Life

SmartLocks are powered by standard AA batteries to make maintenance simple and cost-effective, with built-in power redundancies to prevent lockouts or system failure. Extend your devices’ battery life with disposable alkaline batteries that last 6+ years, without the risk of fire or explosion that comes with the Lithium-ion batteries that power many competing solutions. 

Prevent Unauthorized Access to Units

With a tamper-resistant design, SmartLocks leverage built-in alarms and provide remote visibility into the unit and lock status that you can monitor from the IoE Control Center. This, coupled with the lock’s durable design, helps detect and prevent break-ins and gives your tenants peace of mind that their property is protected.

Self-Healing Wireless Network

SmartLocks operate on a standalone wireless network that will continuously function regardless of interference or device fault, so your system is always online. Electronic locks were designed with security in mind, with data encryption to safeguard customer info and system integrity.

 

Easy Upgrade, Easier Access Management

SmartLocks give your tenants options with flexible access methods that do not require a live internet connection: The tenant locks they already use, a keypad, and a mobile app that opens the device via Bluetooth. The locks also have clear instructions printed on the face that explain to tenants how they can access their unit or pay a bill if they are delinquent, erasing the friction that may come with new technology.
