LiftMaster partners with RemoteLock

OAK BROOK, Ill. – LiftMaster, Chamberlain Group's brand of professionally installed access control solutions, has partnered with RemoteLock to bring the Smart Lock experience to the myQ Community platform.

With this integration, LiftMaster said the myQ Community is the only platform that integrates from community gate to in-unit lock for a seamless experience for residents of apartments, condos and gated communities. RemoteLock works behind the scenes in the myQ Community cloud-based platform to enable control of leading smart lock brands like Yale and Schlage, creating a seamless and uninterrupted self-access experience for community residents that extends from a property's perimeter to a resident's front door.

"LiftMaster takes pride in creating complete smart access control solutions with enhanced access management capabilities that make living in and managing multifamily communities more convenient and secure," said Jenny Lytle, general manager of Commercial Emerging Business. "By integrating with RemoteLock to control in-unit Smart Locks, we are now able to provide one solution to securely manage all of a property's access needs. Whether it's access to the front gate, front door of the property, the mailroom, pool, gym, or a resident's apartment, myQ Community can now be used at every entrance of any community type."

Through the myQ web portal, property managers can remotely issue or revoke access credentials during a changeover in apartment tenants and monitor and control all Smart Lock activity across every access point of the property. Smart Locks also enable in-unit self-guided tours, providing prospective tenants with a temporary access code that can unlock an apartment unit's front door.

"We are excited to partner with LiftMaster to bring the flexibility of RemoteLock's platform into the myQ Community solution through our Platform API," said Barclay Friesen, SVP of partner sales for RemoteLock. "With this integration, LiftMaster can now provide even more access control capabilities to multifamily properties that improve both the resident and property management experience."

The myQ Community web platform and resident app are also compatible with LiftMaster Smart Video Intercoms and Smart Readers. Residents gain access to one-way video calling and two-way video voice communication to identify guests before granting access.
