Brivo, an esteemed name in AI-driven, cloud-native physical security solutions, has introduced the Schlage® XE360™ Series equipped with RealSync™ lock to its Brivo Security Suite. This latest offering promises round-the-clock Wi-Fi connectivity for commercial doors, potentially reducing costs per door by up to 70% compared to traditional wired systems.
Transitioning electronic access control to secondary or interior doors, which make up about 75% of doors in a typical facility, has often been hindered by financial constraints due to the need for extensive cabling, external power solutions, door controllers, and significant labour. The innovative Schlage® XE360™ Series with RealSync™ diverges from conventional systems by maintaining a constant connection to the cloud through the building's existing Wi-Fi setup. This enables swift execution of remote commands and access updates, typically within 10 seconds.
Key advantages of Schlage® XE360™ series integration
The integration with Brivo's system offers several benefits, such as:
- Continuous 24/7 connectivity, which allows for immediate remote lock and unlock actions, on-demand access to audit logs, and instant door event alerts, eliminating the delay from interval synchronisations.
- Efficient infrastructure requirements by connecting over existing Wi-Fi networks, doing away with the necessity for dedicated control panels and complex wiring systems.
- Substantial cost reductions, making access control economically feasible for all facility doors.
- FleX Module™ Architecture, which allows for easy upgrades from offline to online locks by changing an internal module.
- Enhanced battery performance, providing a year-long battery life using standard AA batteries while maintaining network connectivity.
- Centralised security operations management through the Brivo Security Suite interface, integrating perimeter hardwired openings, wireless interior doors, video intelligence, and visitor management.
Securing interior spaces
This latest offering promises round-the-clock Wi-Fi connectivity for commercial doors
Steve Van Till, Founder and President of Brivo, remarked that the traditional approach to hardwired access control limited which doors security managers could protect, as it did not scale adequately across complete facilities.
He stated, “The Schlage® XE360™ Series with RealSync™ integrated with the Brivo Security Suite eliminates the cost and infrastructure, making real-time visibility and policy enforcement achievable for every single door opening.” This advancement supports security integrators in approaching security more comprehensively, thereby facilitating the protection of critical internal areas like IT closets, administrative offices, and utility spaces.
Operational advancements for security integrators
Mike Ridgeway, Business Development Manager for Action Security Group Inc. in Canada, described the Brivo-Schlage® XE360™ integration as a significant operational leap forward. Ridgeway noted, “The Schlage® XE360™ Series with RealSync™ gives us a new way to extend enterprise access control to more openings without the infrastructure and complexity traditionally required. For Action Security Group and our customers, it means faster deployment, greater flexibility, and a scalable path to bring more of the facility into the Brivo ecosystem with real-time visibility and control.”
The Brivo integration with the Schlage® XE360™ Series is currently available and will be demonstrated at the GSX show in Atlanta from Sept. 14-16. Visitors are welcomed to visit booth 3525 to experience the demonstration and connect with a Brivo expert.
Brivo, the AI innovator and pioneer in cloud-native physical security, announces the Schlage® XE360™ Series with RealSync™ lock is available within the Brivo Security Suite, delivering continuous, 24/7 Wi-Fi connectivity across all commercial doors at up to 70% lower cost per door than traditional hardwired systems.
Historically, bringing electronic access control to secondary or interior openings—which account for approximately 75% of doors in a typical facility—has been cost-prohibitive due to extensive cabling, external power supplies, door controllers, and labour.
Traditional hardwired systems
Unlike conventional wireless locks that rely on periodic, scheduled "check-ins" or proprietary gateways, the Schlage® XE360™ Series with RealSync™ maintains a continuous cloud connection using existing building Wi-Fi infrastructure. Remote commands and access updates execute in less than 10 seconds.
Benefits of Brivo - Schlage® XE360™ Series with RealSync™ integration include:
- True 24/7 Persistent Connectivity: Delivers instant remote lock and unlock execution, on-demand audit logs, and immediate door event alerts (such as forced or propped doors) without waiting for interval syncs.
- Streamlined Infrastructure: Connects directly over existing Wi-Fi networks, eliminating the need for dedicated control panels, proprietary wireless gateways, or expensive wiring runs.
- Up to 70% Cost Savings Per Door: Reduces upfront capital costs and installation complexity, making full-facility access control for every door economically viable.
- FleX Module™ Architecture: Easily upgrade existing doors from offline to real-time online locks by replacing the internal module rather than the entire lockset.
- Industry-Pioneering Battery Performance: Full year of battery life on standard AA batteries while remaining continuously connected to the network.
- Unified Security Operations: Centralises management of perimeter hardwired openings, interior wireless doors, video intelligence, and visitor management within a single Brivo Security Suite interface.
Critical interior openings
“For decades, security managers have had to compromise on which doors to secure because traditional hardwired access control simply didn't scale across an entire facility,” said Steve Van Till, Founder and President of Brivo. “The Schlage® XE360™ Series with RealSync™ integrated with the Brivo Security Suite eliminates the cost and infrastructure, making real-time visibility and policy enforcement achievable for every single door opening.”
The integration empowers security integrators to approach facility security holistically, transitioning clients away from securing only primary entrances toward securing all critical interior openings—such as IT closets, administrative offices, and utility spaces.
Major operational advancement
Mike Ridgeway, Business Development Manager for Action Security Group Inc., an Alberta, Canada-based security integrator serving commercial and institutional organisations across Western Canada through its Accesio division, calls the Brivo-Schlage® XE360™ integration “a major operational advancement for both integrators and facility managers.”
Adds Ridgeway, “The Schlage® XE360™ Series with RealSync™ gives us a new way to extend enterprise access control to more openings without the infrastructure and complexity traditionally required. For Action Security Group and our customers, it means faster deployment, greater flexibility, and a scalable path to bring more of the facility into the Brivo ecosystem with real-time visibility and control.”
Available now, the Brivo integration with Schlage® XE360™ Series with RealSync™ will be exhibited along with other Brivo Security Suite products and features at the GSX show in Atlanta Sept. 14-16. Attendees are invited to stop by the Brivo booth 3525 to see a demonstration and meet with a Brivo expert.
