Allegion and BadgePass have expanded their offering of credentials, readers and wireless electronic locks Allegion, a global security products and solutions provider, has announced that Schlage® NDE wireless locks now seamlessly integrate with BadgePass™ Access Manager – offering a suite of security and identity management solutions. The two companies have expanded their offering of credentials, readers and wireless electronic locks. Allegion NDE wireless locks “We are extremely excited about adding Allegion’s NDE wireless locks to the BadgePass portfolio,” said Lindsay Martin-Nez, Executive Vice President of marketing and indirect sales at BadgePass. “We have had tremendous success with the AD-400 wireless locks, but the new NDE wireless locks provide our customers the opportunity to expand their access control implementations to more doors than ever before, at an extremely competitive price point.” Like the AD Series, NDE wireless locks are built on an open architecture platform to conveniently pair with access control systems such as the BadgePass Access Manager. The latest integration offers a greater range of applications for customers from a single BadgePass managed solution. Users will experience broader features and capabilities as this system is designed to be customised and adapt as needed. Scalable solution for security needs "NDE wireless locks are easy to install, connect and manage -without the need to modify existing doors" “Customers who are looking for an integrated security system will value the Schlage NDE wireless locks using BadgePass Access Manager,” said Brad Aikin, Electronics Portfolio Leader at Allegion. “Together, the two provide a scalable solution to meet varying security needs. And for customers looking to upgrade their hardware, NDE wireless locks are easy to install, connect and manage – without the need to modify existing doors.” The BadgePass software offers two controllers for managing the new Schlage NDE Locks: the BadgePass BAC042500 controller can manage up to 64 NDE locks and the BadgePass EP-1501 (IP/PoE) can manage up to 10 NDE locks. As more and more facilities implement wireless access control, Allegion and BadgePass are proud to offer a variety of options available through the AD series and NDE wireless locks.
BadgePass Visitor Manager was implemented to allow for easy registering and tracking of visitors Little River Casino Resort in Manistee, Michigan has been a customer of Richardson Business Solutions for over 12 years. The casino has long been using traditional player’s club card personalisation equipment and peripherals, including BadgePass SmartReg enrollment software. During an annual review meeting, Richardson inquired about the current access control system at the casino. When they learned that the company providing service to the current system was offering slow service, obsolete parts and older technology, Richardson suggested Little River take a look at other product offerings. The casino had 35 doors controlled by a previous access control system and interest in adding additional doors of electronic access. Richardson Business Solutions conducted a serious of walk-throughs and security assessments before proposing a solution. “Ultimately we really wanted to focus on finding the right fit for the customer. We knew they had an experience that was less than stellar in the past and we didn’t want them to relive that again,” explained Kier Breckon, President of Richardson Business Machines. “We highlighted the benefits of the fully integrated badge issuance process with BadgePass Identity Manager and Access Manager and they absolutely loved that.” Once Richardson got approval for installation, the system roll-out was extremely easy. Little River Casino Resort converted their previous 35 doors of access control to BadgePass and decided to add an additional 15 doors as well, bringing their door count to 50. They replaced a previous badging software and now issue customised badges printed on 40-bit smartcards from Identity Manager to each of their employees. “We highlighted the benefits of the fully integrated badge issuance process with BadgePass Identity Manager and Access Manager and they absolutely loved that” Once they had accomplished electronic door access, visitor tracking was the next security hurdle. BadgePass Visitor Manager was implemented, to allow for easy registering and tracking of visitors. Now, when visitors arrive, the system is used to scan their Driver’s License and printing them a temporary badge. For those guests who need access to secure areas of the casino during their visit, QuickPass cards are assigned with temporary access privileges that are automatically revoked as soon as they check out. Now that the BadgePass system is fully operational, secure areas of the casino and resort are restricted and monitored with electronic door access and web-based reporting, new employee badges are easily issued and assigned access via Identity Manager, and guests enjoy fast and efficient registration through Visitor Manager. Best of all, the customer couldn’t be happier with their fully integrated, user-friendly system. “The system is so user-friendly from both an IT management and daily operations side,” said Jason Skaggs, Network Operations Administrator at Little River Casino Resort. “We are so happy that our long standing relationship with Richardson Business Solutions resulted in such great support and an excellent system implementation that we’ll undoubtedly still be adding to for years to come.”
