HID Global®, Irvine, Calif., announced that parent company ASSA ABLOY’s Aperio® wireless lock family now can deliver all of the benefits of the Genuine HID value proposition including interoperability with Seos credentials from HID Global and ASSA ABLOY, and with the HID Global iCLASS SE reader platform. Aperio enables doors to be integrated into an access control system without having to install wiring, make any structural changes to the doors, or modify existing access control credentials or system software.

Aperio lock technology allows organizations to wirelessly link mechanical door locks to new or existing access control systems so that the doors can be opened with RFID cards rather than keys. As a certified Genuine HID Technology, Aperio now also supports HID Global’s iCLASS SE platform, which includes Seos credentials for improved security, privacy and portability. Additionally, Aperio locks support iCLASS®, MIFARE® and DESFire®, as well as low-frequency 125 kHz HID Prox and EM410x technologies.

“Aperio products with Genuine HID Technology will enable a wide array of revolutionary new security solutions for our customers,” said Chris Bone, vice president, Access Control with ASSA ABLOY EMEA. “Aperio’s Genuine HID Technology certification gives customers the assurance of an exceptionally high level of quality and service, and extensive options for creating an access control infrastructure that includes wireless electronic locking technology, among other current and future capabilities.”

Aperio wireless locks are now listed in the Genuine HID Technology-enabled product matrix featured in access control locks at www.hidglobal.com.
