Heartland Payment Systems® Advances Access Control Offering with Schlage Locks
Campus OneCard and Schlage AD-Series electronic locks provide scalable access and security solutions for colleges and universitiesPrinceton, NJ ― October 21, 2009 — Heartland Payment Systems’ (NYSE: HPY) Campus SolutionsSM division has enhanced its access and security offering by integrating its Campus OneCard System with Schlage AD-Series electronic locks. The Campus OneCard is a multi-functional campus card that can be used for access control, on- and off-campus purchases, financial aid disbursement and more. Schlage is a brand of Ingersoll Rand Security Technologies, a leading global provider of products and services that make environments safe, secure and productive.
The modular design of the new Schlage AD-Series locks lets higher education users customize door openings by credential reader (magnetic stripe, proximity, mifare, etc.), networking, finish and levers. Yet, without replacing the lock or even taking it off the door, they can upgrade readers and network modules to change credentials or go from an offline to networked solution. Additionally, the system is built on an open architecture platform, allowing for seamless integration with OneCard software. By combining these products, Heartland provides campus administrators with flexible security solutions they can tailor to their campuses and easily upgrade as their needs and industry technologies evolve.
“This integrated platform built for scalability ― not obsolescence ― will accommodate the changing needs of campuses in the short term and in the long run,” said Fred Emery, vice president and general manager, Heartland Campus Solutions. “Heartland and Ingersoll Rand Security Technologies have a long-standing, synergistic relationship that enables both companies to leverage their expertise in the access control and security spaces to bring added value to our clients.”
In addition to this integration, the Campus OneCard Access and Security System helps administrators keep their campuses safe with centralized and automated security controls, wired and wireless networking options, campus-wide notification, video surveillance and analytics, and
more. For more information on the Campus OneCard System, visit HeartlandPaymentSystems.com/Campus .
