Providing dealers with a new line of products that deliver a range of security options to multifamily (MDU) buildings, Allegion Americas has introduced its new Zentra brand of access control solutions.
“We could not be more excited to launch Zentra as part of Allegion’s portfolio,” says Dave Ilardi, senior vice president and president of Allegion Americas.
“With Zentra, our company is taking another step forward toward our vision of seamless access and a safer world. It enables properties to establish and strengthen their electronic access capabilities and modernize, benefiting both residents and property owners.”
A security and solutions provider, Allegion’s portfolio focuses on security around doors and adjacent areas. Its brands include CISA, Interflex, LCN, Schlage, SimonsVoss and Von Duprin.
According to Allegion, Zentra’s suite of solutions were developed to provide simple, smart and secure property access to MDUs.
Zentra explains the brand’s offerings are unified by a single software platform with integrated hardware and support services to enhance back-end efficiency for property managers and improve the overall resident experience.
Allegion Americas also emphasizes that its new Zentra brand was created with operators, residents and MDU integrators in mind to help provide all those parties with the security that fits their specific needs.
“Residents’ lives are full of movement, constantly accepting deliveries, coordinating in-home or on-location services, welcoming visitors and so much more,” adds John Goodwin, vice president and general manager of multifamily access of Zentra.
“Zentra is focused on simplifying the whole experience of selecting, installing and using smart access solutions for multifamily buildings to drive higher adoption in the market and deliver increased return on investment for property managers and owners. Coming from Allegion, a trusted name in security, provides added confidence for users and channel partners.”
