TimeLox begins installation of their proprietary One-Card Solution locking system at Wynn Las Vegas Resort
RICHARDSON, TX | Matthew Mrowczynski, Vice President of Marketing and Branding for ASSA ABLOY Hospitality, Inc., has announced that installation of the TimeLox One-Card Solution locking system has begun at the Wynn Las Vegas Resort. The resort is currently under construction on the north end of the famed ”Vegas Strip” and is scheduled to open in April 2005. It is located on the site of the legendary Desert Inn Resort and Casino, across the street from two of the nations’ largest convention centers. Once fully developed, the 192-acre property will feature 2,701 guestrooms in a 45-story tower with a 514-foot glass tower. Amenities will include 18 restaurants, a 2,000 seat showroom, 75,000 square feet of retail space, 200,000 square feet of convention space and a massive 111,000 square-foot casino. An 18-hole golf course, Ferrari and Maserati dealerships, and an art gallery are also planned.
With a project of this magnitude, the management team at Wynn Resorts Limited knew they would need a security and locking system that is just as revolutionary as the resort itself. The system they chose is the TimeLox One-Card Solution. This exclusive locking solution was specifically developed by TimeLox with the unique security needs of large resorts and gaming properties in mind. A proprietary player tracking system feature allows guests to use their guestroom keycards for access to multiple areas and services, such as game tables, slots, POS outlets, in-room safes and mini-bars. Properties with Player Clubs may allow guests to retain the cards for use on their return visit. This system also allows the property to track guest expenditures, making it easy to customize services and optimize marketing opportunities.
The One-Card Solution is based on the TimeLox DC-One IR5 (infrared) online locking system and operates on a dual platform that reads both magstripe and smart cards for maximum system flexibility. It utilizes advanced infrared communication technology, developed in partnership with INNCOM International Inc., to create a cost efficient online solution. The system offers a host of convenient features, including the ability to relocate guests or extend stay times without the need to re-encode their keycards. It also detects door ajar conditions and immediately cancels lost staff cards without visiting the locks. Other features include sequential and roaming intruder alarm, low battery/maintenance needed notification, instant staff locator and an all-inclusive event list with real-time data transfer.
“Wynn Las Vegas is destined to be a Las Vegas landmark, and we are very excited to be involved in helping them maximize both their security and operations," said Mrowczynski. "The TimeLox One Card Solution and DC-One IR system go far beyond locks to add a whole new dimension to guest security and hotel operations."
