SmartRent Access Control is a software‑driven access management solution designed for multifamily residential properties. It provides centralized control over doors, gates, and entry points using connected hardware and cloud‑based software. The system allows property teams to manage access permissions remotely, replacing manual keys and fragmented access processes. The solution integrates access control into broader property operations, enabling consistent workflows for staff, residents, vendors, and prospects. Access rights can be created, modified, and revoked digitally, supporting both permanent and temporary credentials. SmartRent Access Control is built to operate at scale across large portfolios. It supports real‑time visibility into access activity, reduces reliance on on‑site staff for access tasks, and improves operational consistency while maintaining security and auditability.
