NEW — SoftKey smartphone access control is now available
Meet SoftKey
Your smartphone is now your door key.
Secure Bluetooth access for apartment blocks, workplaces and shared entrances — without keys or fobs.
Works without a data connectionWorks with existing systemsFlexible digital access
More than a digital fob
The right door. The right person. The right time.
Every SoftKey can be given exactly the access its user needs. Residents can have permanent access, cleaners can be restricted to particular days, contractors can be given access for a defined period and visitors can be issued a key that works just once.
PermanentOngoing access until changed or removed.
Time BasedAccess for a defined period.
RecurringAccess on selected days and times.
One TimeA SoftKey for a single use.
No AccessKeep the user set up without current access.
SoftKey administration portal
One portal.
Every property.
Manage a single entrance or a whole portfolio from the same web portal. An administrator can manage as many sites as required, with doors, users and SoftKeys organised separately for each property.
Multiple sites
Keep every property together in one account.
Doors & users
Manage access individually for every site.
Plan by site
Choose the administration model that suits each property.
Your SoftKeys don’t stop working.
Subscriptions pay for the level of administration you need — not for the right to open the door. If a paid administration period ends, existing SoftKeys continue to operate and the site reverts to its non-subscription administration state.
Live demonstration
Don’t just read about SoftKey. Try it.
Open our live demonstration portal and explore it for yourself. Add users, manage doors and issue SoftKeys just as an administrator would on a real site.
Then take it a step further: download and register the SoftKey app on your own phone, add yourself to the demo portal and issue yourself a SoftKey.

Temporary access made simple
No keys to collect. No fobs to return.
Give contractors, cleaners, maintenance staff and other temporary users access for exactly as long as they need it. Their SoftKey can expire automatically when the permitted period ends.
Works with what you already have
Add smartphone access without replacing your existing system.
SoftKey complements existing door entry and access control systems and can be added to suitable existing installations as well as incorporated into new Entryphone systems.
SoftKey Standard
See how SoftKey is being used.
For busy sites, Standard adds visibility as well as unlimited users. Administrators can see who used their SoftKey, which door they used and when — with 30-day use history and CSV export.
Use Logs
Review SoftKey activity across the site: user, door and time, with records available for export.
Notify
Select a particular user and receive an email alert when that person’s SoftKey is used — useful when you want to know that an expected contractor or occasional user has arrived.
Flexible administration
Pay for administration to suit each site.
A small site need not carry the same cost as a busy apartment block. Choose the most appropriate model independently for each property you manage.
