Bret Tobey, product manager for Intelligent Openings Business Development at ASSA ABLOY Americas, talks about a new set of locks he calls “near online.” These locks are similar to off-line locks of the past except they include some network components that remove some of the manual tasks associated with some older off-line locks.
“Now we have something that gives you all the offline capability at the offline price point but now you get the add benefit of not having to visit the lock and when it gets to an unknown states … the lock can go back and make an inquiry to make sure they’re valid,” Tobey says.
