Stockholm — Vingcard, an ASSA ABLOY company and provider of advanced technologies for the hospitality industry, is proud to unveil the latest advancement in hotel security access innovation with the launch of its Vingcard R-Series door reader. Combining sleek elegance with robust performance, the Vingcard R-Series reader is set to provide the enhanced flexibility needed to adopt the newest room entry protections and features across a wide array of onsite areas. 

Ideal for both indoor and outdoor use, Vingcard R-Series provides the opportunity to deploy high quality security for locations where installing traditional door locks is not feasible. Examples include being suitable for revolving doors, parking garage barriers, elevators, sliding doors, gates and more.

With hoteliers able to select either a wide or narrow model to better fit precise needs, Vingcard R-Series notably features compatibility with Vingcard’s cloud-based Vostio Access Management system. This ensures that each unit continues to operate with the latest credential encryption protocols via Vostio Access Management’s ability to receive automatic software updates at no additional cost.

Compatibility with Vostio Access Management along with its built-in Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and Near Field Communication (NFC) functionality also means that the Vingcard R-Series can support the latest mobile key technology. The solution also offers the ability for guests to store keys within digital wallets and gain access to building entrances and other areas with just a tap of their personal device. Guests can even receive and use mobile keys without first having to download a separate app. 

Properties have a responsibility to ensure a safe environment but they also have to balance that task with providing convenient and seamless room or building entry options for their guests. The Vingcard R-Series allows hoteliers to fully deliver on both priorities regardless of entrance type or where a property needs to manage and control access. Thanks to the solution’s robust durability and ability to support compatibility with the latest technologies, we look forward to providing our customers with the ability to extend heightened security and elevated guest experiences throughout their premises.

Able to withstand both prolonged indoor use and extreme outdoor weather conditions, Vingcard R-Series readers are also ideal for both new construction or retrofit projects.
