How RemoteLock Makes Managing Multiple Properties Easy

Managing multiple multifamily properties can be a complex operation, but it doesn’t have to be overwhelming. RemoteLock offers a powerful set of tools to simplify access control, streamline operations, and enhance security for property managers overseeing any number of locations.

The background features shelves with decorative items, books, and wicker baskets, as well as a sofa with colorful cushions, creating a comfortable and organized environment.

One of the biggest challenges for property managers handling multiple locations is staying on top of everything without being physically present. RemoteLock’s centralized dashboard solves this problem, offering a unified view of all your properties, doors, and locks — even if those locks feature a variety of access types. Whether managing five properties or fifty, you can oversee everything from a single platform, making it easy to stay organized and responsive. 

The dashboard also includes robust filtering options, enabling managers to focus on specific locations or regions. For example, a regional manager can configure their view to include only their assigned properties, streamlining their daily operations. This remote management capability saves valuable time and eliminates the need for costly site visits.

Streamline Operations with PMS Integration

RemoteLock’s seamless integration with the leading property management systems (PMS) is a transformative feature for multifamily managers juggling numerous responsibilities. By syncing resident and staff access with the PMS, RemoteLock eliminates the need for manual entry of access credentials, reducing errors and saving time. This integration allows property managers to automate key tasks such as scheduling maintenance, assigning cleaning staff to empty units, and handling the logistics of move-ins and move-outs, ensuring a smooth experience for both residents and staff.

Multifamily managers benefit significantly from this streamlined approach, as they can efficiently oversee high-occupancy properties with multiple access points. Combining access control with essential property management tasks like leasing and maintenance further enhances operational efficiency, creating a unified and effective workflow.

Simplify Access Control with Door Groups

Door groups are a standout feature that sets RemoteLock apart from other access control solutions. This innovative concept allows property managers to assign access to specific sets of doors with a single action, reducing repetitive tasks and ensuring consistency across multiple properties. For instance, you can create a “delivery group” that grants access to service entrances, garages, and freight elevators across several buildings. You could also set up a door group of model units, allowing you to offer self-guided tours to prospective residents.

Once the group is configured, it can be reused at multiple locations, eliminating the need to recreate settings for each property. Door groups are particularly useful for managing access to amenities like pools or VIP areas, as they allow property managers to assign privileges based on resident or guest profiles. This feature simplifies what would otherwise be a time-consuming task and ensures access is managed efficiently across your portfolio.

Effortlessly Manage Common Doors

In properties with shared spaces such as lobbies, gyms, or parking garages, common doors play a critical role. RemoteLock makes managing these areas straightforward by enabling you to treat common doors as part of broader door groups. This approach allows property managers to seamlessly integrate shared spaces with the rest of their access control strategy. 

For example, you can set up a parent-child relationship between individual units and shared spaces, ensuring that residents and guests can access common areas without compromising security. This functionality is invaluable for maintaining convenience while enforcing clear access boundaries within multifamily properties.

Tailored Access for Every User

Flexibility is at the core of RemoteLock’s approach to access control. Property managers can assign access based on user roles, tailoring permissions to meet specific needs. For instance, delivery drivers may only need access to service areas and certain elevators, while residents require access to both their private units and shared amenities. 

Time-sensitive access codes further enhance this flexibility by automatically expiring after a set duration, ensuring that only authorized individuals have access at any given time. This level of customization not only improves security but also reduces the administrative workload for property managers, making it easier to oversee multiple properties.
