Smart Lock Access Control
As companies evolve and user expectations change, smart lock solutions can help create a better experience for staff, facility managers, and security professionals. Adding smart lock access control can simplify day-to-day access, improve response times, and give teams more control over who can enter specific areas and when. With better visibility, easier updates, and more flexible credential options, organizations can improve convenience without losing sight of security, accountability, and operational efficiency.
InstaKey delivers a modern approach to key control by combining rekeyable mechanical hardware with smart access options that can scale across a single facility or an entire portfolio of locations. Instead of choosing between mechanical keys and electronic access, you can design a blended program that uses restricted, serialized keys where they make the most sense and smart lock access control where you need it. This integrated strategy helps you move away from reactive lock-and-key issues and toward a proactive, data-driven access program that is easier to manage, more secure, and better aligned with how your teams actually operate.
Fewer Physical Keys to Manage
If your key system covers many locks in a campus environment or needs to open multiple locations, a master key system can help reduce the number of keys in circulation. The fewer keys in circulation, the better your control. Electronic key restrictions and unique serial numbering enhance key holder accountability and help reduce the need for rekeying or core swapping a door. For customer-facing doors, smart credentials, PINs, QR-code workflows, BLE hubs, and key override options can further reduce associate interruptions while preserving a secure path for employees and service teams. In the LPRC retail restroom trials, stores reported time savings from providing access less often, completing fewer incident reports, and cleaning or checking restrooms less frequently.

Last Lock
Last Lock Core is a compact, self-powered smart lock module designed to embed into a wide range of OEM lock formats—including mortise, rim, euro, cam, and more—helping manufacturers bring next-generation access solutions to market faster. Built for streamlined integration, Core combines up to 10 years of battery life, solar harvesting, and an integrated backup battery with modular hardware that adapts to diverse mechanical lock bodies. It supports multiple credential technologies in a single SKU, including RFID, NFC, BLE, UWB, Apple Wallet, HID Prox, and emerging standards such as Aliro and Matter, making it ready for both current and future access needs. With Seamless Link and a unified API, Last Lock Core also connects easily with new or existing access control systems for simplified credential management, automation, and visibility.
FreedomGo
FreedomGo is a self-service smart access solution designed to help retailers and commercial facilities improve restroom security, reduce incidents, and create a better customer experience. Customers can securely request access from their mobile device using a QR code, reducing the need for employees to manually unlock doors while improving convenience and operational efficiency.
The solution combines cloud-managed smart lock technology, BLE-enabled communication, and InstaKey’s lock provisioning, installation, and service support to create a scalable access platform for retail environments. FreedomGo was developed to address restroom misuse, theft activity, vandalism, prolonged occupancy, and labor inefficiencies identified in retail stores. However, deployment is also applicable for fitting rooms. Research trials with major retailers showed significant reductions in restroom-related incidents, improved restroom conditions, and measurable labor savings from fewer incident reports, reduced monitoring, and less frequent cleaning interruptions. The platform also supports smartphone access, PIN credentials, physical key override, and optional remote management capabilities while maintaining customer privacy safeguards.

Spirit Series gives facilities a flexible, modern way to upgrade access control with smart lock options that fit a wide range of openings, including deadbolts, cylindrical locks, mortise locks, interconnected locks, and exit device trim. Designed for quick installation, Spirit Series locks support multiple credentials including smartphone, RFID, PIN, and mechanical key, while helping teams schedule access, track events, manage users, monitor battery status, and enable features like auto lock/unlock, privacy modes, and localized lockdown on select models. With BLE communication, AES 256 encryption, standalone or online capability, and app-based management for multiple devices, , the Spirit Series delivers a practical balance of convenience, security, and control for office buildings, schools, healthcare facilities, multi-family properties, retail restrooms, fitting rooms, cash offices, MDF server rooms, back entry doors and other demanding environments. When paired with a BLE Hub, Spirit Locks can support cloud-managed workflows and QR-code access experiences.
