The integration is available and supported worldwide and is applicable for all industries.

Aperio is easy to install, with no structural alterations required. The system provides audit trails online, to allow for the real time monitoring of doors. 

In addition, the Gallagher and Aperio systems have been developed to operate with the same data on an access card, allowing for a tighter, seamless integration.
