Allegion US is poised to unveil its latest interoperable electronic access control solutions and integrations from Schlage, Zentra™, and Gatewise™ at NAA Apartmentalize, occurring from June 17–19. This annual gathering of multifamily housing professionals offers insights into the latest industry trends and best practices, with Allegion showcasing its offerings at Booth #2307.
John Goodwin, Allegion's GM and VP of multifamily access, observes, “Multifamily property operators have historically struggled with a visibility gap, often remaining unaware of an access issue at a door until a resident or staff member reports it.”
Access Control Solutions
By integrating Zentra™ and Gatewise with Schlage XE360™ Series via RealSync™, property teams can now achieve real-time visibility and control from perimeter gates to apartment doors without additional hardware. “That’s a complete solution and the kind of software impact that genuinely changes how a building runs," Goodwin added.
Visitors to the booth can engage with Allegion's security consultants for detailed discussions on seamless access, while exploring innovations unified by software platforms with integrated hardware and support services for multifamily complexes.
Real-Time Connectivity
This strategic partnership facilitates seamless, centralized access to Allegion's RealSync™ technology
Zentra and Gatewise are preparing to enhance their multifamily offerings through an impending integration with Allegion's Yonomi™ Platform. This strategic partnership facilitates seamless, centralized access to Allegion's RealSync™ technology, offering uninterrupted connectivity via a property's existing Wi-Fi. This setup allows managers to swiftly send commands and verify lock status without extra gateways or wiring costs.
Real-time connectivity is delivered by the Schlage XE360™ Series, now expanding with a new deadbolt featuring an interchangeable FleX Module™. This allows easy selection between offline Bluetooth® or Wi-Fi-enabled RealSync™ modes, supported by Zentra and Gatewise.
High-Maintenance Physical Intercoms
Zentra and Gatewise are redefining guest access by merging Zentra’s cloud access control with Gatewise’s Guest Access, thus eliminating high-maintenance physical intercoms. Guests can scan a QR code to access a digital directory and contact residents, who can remotely grant access via smartphone. This collaboration provides a streamlined, hardware-light entry process spanning from gates to apartment doors.
Amit Sherman, Allegion's VP of multifamily access solutions & operations, noted, “At Allegion, locks and hardware are just the starting point. Through partnerships with innovators like Zentra and Gatewise, we are redefining what’s possible in property security.”
Improving Resident Experience
Show-goers can enjoy live games, demonstrations, and food at Allegion’s booth
Allegion is also promoting its Campus-to-Community experience—an integrated, mobile-first ecosystem designed to connect the student journey on and off campus. It combines hardware, mobile credentials, top-tier software integrations, and expert services, reducing friction for operators and enhancing resident satisfaction.
This initiative not only provides a seamless mobile-access journey for students but also reduces service calls and operational complexity for professionals. Backed by Allegion’s extensive history and partnerships, the Campus-to-Community approach enables operators to confidently scale their student housing solutions.
Show-goers can enjoy live games, demonstrations, and food at Allegion’s booth. For those unable to attend the event, Allegion offers online resources, including the Solving for Multifamily Podcast and an array of digital materials and virtual training sessions.

Access control solutions
“Integrating Zentra™ and Gatewise with Schlage XE360™ Series with RealSync™ gives property teams real time visibility and control from the perimeter gate to the apartment door, with no extra hardware required. That’s a complete solution and the kind of software impact that genuinely changes how a building runs.”
Show attendees can join Allegion security consultants at booth #2307 for in-depth conversations around seamless access and have an up-close look at the latest innovations in access control solutions unified by software platforms with integrated hardware and support services for multifamily properties:
Real-time connectivity
Zentra and Gatewise are soon to expand their capabilities in the multifamily market through an upcoming integration with Allegion’s Yonomi™ Platform. This strategic collaboration empowers property managers utilizing either software platform with seamless, centralized access to Allegion’s groundbreaking RealSync™ technology. Utilizing Zentra's Access Core™ to bridge these systems, both Zentra and Gatewise customers can now experience persistent, real-time connectivity via a property's existing Wi-Fi infrastructure, allowing operators to send commands and verify lock status in seconds, without the need for additional gateways, hubs or investments in wiring.
This powerful, real-time experience is delivered through the proven Schlage XE360™ Series, which is expanding its multifamily hardware lineup with a sleek, highly anticipated new deadbolt option. Like the rest of the XE360 family, the new deadbolt features an interchangeable FleX Module™ that allows properties to easily choose between offline Bluetooth® or the Wi-Fi-enabled RealSync™ mode supported by Zentra and Gatewise.
High-maintenance physical intercoms
Zentra and Gatewise are combining forces to deliver a modern guest access experience solution for multifamily properties. By bringing together Zentra’s robust cloud access control and the Gatewise Guest Access, this joint offering eliminates the need for expensive, high-maintenance physical intercoms. Guests simply scan a QR code at the entrance to access a digital directory and call the resident, who can then grant access remotely right from their smartphone. Together, Zentra and Gatewise provide a frictionless, hardware-light entry experience that enables securing the property from the perimeter gate all the way to the apartment door.
“At Allegion, locks and hardware are just the starting point,” said Amit Sherman, Allegion VP, multifamily access solutions & operations. “Through partnerships with innovators like Zentra and Gatewise, we are redefining what’s possible in property security. With every integration and enhancement, we’re focused on empowering multifamily professionals to adapt quickly, optimize workflows and maintain the highest standards of security and convenience.”
Improving resident experience
Allegion is also highlighting its newly announced Campus-to-Community experience. This is the first unified, mobile-first ecosystem that connects the entire student journey—on campus and off—eliminating fragmentation and improving resident experience.
By bringing hardware, mobile credentials, best-in-class software integrations and expert services together into one connected platform, it eliminates the friction that slows operators down and frustrates residents. Students gain one seamless mobile-access experience wherever their day takes them, while operators benefit from fewer service calls, smoother turnovers, and dramatically reduced complexity.
Multifamily housing professionals
Backed by Allegion’s century of trust and a broad ecosystem of software and integration partners, Campus-to-Community delivers a secure, modern student housing experience operators can confidently scale.
Show attendees can round out their day-of experience with live games, demos and food at the booth. Multifamily housing professionals who will not be attending the show in person this year can utilize Allegion’s online resources including the Solving for Multifamily Podcast and a wide array of digital resources and virtual trainings.
