For property developers embarking on new construction, integrating a smart lock system from the ground up is a transformative opportunity. It’s about building an intelligent foundation that streamlines operations, enhances security, and creates a modern living experience. This guide outlines a strategic framework for planning and selecting a system, with a special focus on leveraging a turnkey platform like .
1. Define Your Project's Core Objectives
Begin by clarifying the strategic goals for the smart access system in your specific development.
automate the resident lifecycle (move-in, access changes, move-out), or to enhance the property's market appeal and operational efficiency.
water and electricity meters, providing a unified management dashboard for all connected devices.
2. Selecting Hardware & Communication Architecture with WisApartment
2.1 Hardware Specifications
The locks must be compatible with your chosen management ecosystem. WisApartment offers a complete solution that includes compatible door lock circuit boards and IoT modules. Key hardware considerations include:
Installation & Security: For new construction, mortise-style locks with high-grade security (ANSI Grade 1 or 2) are recommended.
Unlocking Methods: Ensure locks support multiple methods—mobile app, PIN codes, key cards, and a mechanical override—to cater to all residents.
Power Management: Choose models with long battery life and ensure the system provides proactive low-battery alerts to the management platform.
2.2 Communication Strategy: Flexibility is Key
WisApartment excels here by supporting multiple networking methods, allowing you to tailor the infrastructure to your project's layout and needs. The optimal choice depends on building structure and priorities:
| Communication Method | Best For | Considerations with WisApartment |
|---|---|---|
| 4G Cat.1 (Cellular) | https://www.kaisstar.com/Solution | https://www.kaisstar.com/Solution |
| Bluetooth-Only | Cost-sensitive projects where remote access management is not a top priority for the property manager. | Allows residents to unlock via smartphone at the door. Crucially, does not enable remote management, real-time access logs, or instant permission revocation by managers. |
| Bluetooth + Gateway | The recommended balanced approach for most new aprtment projects. Combines resident convenience with full management control. | .This is the core of a professional, scalable system. |
Our Recommendation: For a seamless blend of resident experience and operational control in a new build, the Bluetooth + Gateway model is superior. During construction, you can easily plan for gateway placement (e.g., in electrical rooms) and ensure strong network coverage throughout the property.
3. Leveraging the WisApartment Management Platform
The software is where efficiency is realized. WisApartment provides a unified cloud-based platform accessible via APP, mini-program, and PC management terminal.
Granular Role & Permission Management: This is a core strength. The system allows you to assign different access permissions and menu visibility to property managers, cleaning staff, and maintenance crews. You can restrict managers to specific buildings or floors, ensuring organizational clarity and security.
Full Lifecycle Access Control: Digitally manage the entire process: create temporary access codes for viewings, issue permanent credentials upon move-in, and instantly revoke all access when a resident moves out—all from your phone or computer.
Centralized Monitoring & Audit Trail: View the real-time status of all locks (online/offline, battery level). Receive instant alerts for forced entry attempts or other anomalies. Maintain a complete, immutable log of every entry event.
4. Implementation & Integration Roadmap
Early Engagement: Involve your smart lock and WisApartment solution provider during the design phase to plan for gateway locations and power requirements.
Professional Installation: Employ certified installers for bulk fitting and commissioning to ensure every lock is correctly registered on the WisApartment platform.
Staff Training & Resident Onboarding: Develop clear guides. Utilize WisApartment's multi-language support (including English, Russian, and others) for international resident communities.
Explore API Integration: For large-scale projects, WisApartment's open API allows for potential secondary development and deep integration with existing property management or finance systems.
