Gallagher Security has unveiled its new collaboration with ASSA ABLOY, featuring an innovative IP lock integration designed to streamline access control installations in demanding environments.
This newly launched solution promises to lower installation costs by eliminating the need for extensive cabling and door controllers, especially in retrofit and hard-to-wire settings.
Enhanced Access Control for Diverse Environments
The Gallagher and ASSA ABLOY integration is particularly beneficial for US higher education institutions, including residence halls and classrooms, that require a mix of online and offline operations, flexibility, and easy deployment. It is equally applicable to government facilities, enterprise campuses, and healthcare environments that demand robust security across multiple locations.
Matt Butts, Executive Vice President – Americas for Gallagher Security, stated, "This integration reflects a shared vision between Gallagher and ASSA ABLOY to make security more accessible, flexible, and effective for our customers. By combining best-in-class door security with enterprise-grade access control, we're delivering a solution that reduces friction and empowers facilities with greater insight, faster response times and the confidence of connected technologies working together.”
Reliable Operation and Connectivity
The solution supports ASSA ABLOY's IN120 battery-powered Wi-Fi locks and IN220 PoE IP locks
The solution supports ASSA ABLOY's IN120 battery-powered Wi-Fi locks and IN220 PoE IP locks, which integrate directly with an organization’s onsite IP network. Managed centrally via Gallagher’s Command Centre, the system oversees access privileges, credentials, schedules, and overrides, simplifying daily operations while maintaining comprehensive site visibility.
Each lock possesses local intelligence, enabling independent access decisions during network outages, which is crucial for critical areas like residence halls, labs, and remote buildings.
Proactive Security Management
Security and IT administrators gain full visibility into events, alarms, battery status, and device health through the Command Centre, facilitating proactive management and quicker issue resolution. The Gallagher Security and ASSA ABLOY IP Lock integration is currently available in the United States. For further details, interested parties are encouraged to contact their local Gallagher Security representative.
Angelo Faenza, Head of Digital Access Solutions at ASSA ABLOY, commented, “Our collaboration with Gallagher brings together two leaders in access control to solve a real-world challenge for our customers. By integrating our IP enabled locks with Gallagher’s Command Centre platform, we’re delivering a streamlined, modern approach to securing doors across complex facilities. It’s a powerful example of how open, interoperable solutions can elevate both security and operational efficiency.”
