CANTON, GA - Award-winning global security manufacturer, Gallagher Security is excited to announce the launch of the new ASSA ABLOY IP lock integration, delivering simplified installation of access control in challenging environments.
Launched today, the solution reduces the high costs and complexity of traditional wired access control, by removing the need for extensive cabling and door controllers. It simplifies installation, particularly in retrofit or hard-to-wire locations.
The integration is particularly suited to US higher education environments, including residence halls, classrooms, and research spaces, where mixed online and offline operation, flexibility, and ease of deployment are essential. The solution is also applicable to government facilities, enterprise campuses, and institutional and healthcare environments that need reliable security across distributed sites.
Gallagher Security, Executive Vice President – Americas Matt Butts says, "This integration reflects a shared vision between Gallagher and ASSA ABLOY to make security more accessible, flexible, and effective for our customers. By combining best-in-class door security with enterprise-grade access control, we're delivering a solution that reduces friction and empowers facilities with greater insight, faster response times and the confidence of connected technologies working together.”
The integration supports ASSA ABLOY IN120 battery‑powered Wi‑Fi locks and IN220 PoE IP locks, which connect directly to an organization’s on‑premises IP network. Access privileges, credentials, schedules, and overrides are managed centrally in Gallagher’s Command Centre, streamlining day‑to‑day operations while maintaining visibility across the site.
Local intelligence at each lock enables independent access decisions, ensuring continued operation during network outages, which is critical for environments such as residence halls, labs, secure offices, and remote buildings.
Security and IT administrators benefit from full visibility into events, alarms, battery status, audits, and device health directly within Command Centre, enabling proactive management and faster response to issues.
The Gallagher Security and ASSA ABLOY IP Lock integration is available now in the United States. For more information, contact your local Gallagher Security representative.
ASSA ABLOY’s Head of Digital Access Solutions, Angelo Faenza says, “Our collaboration with Gallagher brings together two leaders in access control to solve a real‑world challenge for our customers. By integrating our IP‑enabled locks with Gallagher’s Command Centre platform, we’re delivering a streamlined, modern approach to securing doors across complex facilities. It’s a powerful example of how open, interoperable solutions can elevate both security and operational efficiency.”
