Why Does the Nokē Storage Smart Entry Mobile App Need Tenant Location?
Location services play a crucial role in ensuring the security and functionality of your smart facility with Nokē Storage Smart Entry. Here's how it works and why it matters for both tenants and facilities:
Enhancing Security with Location Verification
When a tenant arrives at the facility and opens the Nokē Storage Smart Entry mobile app, location services ensure that:
- Credential Verification: The app confirms the user's identity and permissions.
- Facility Presence: The system verifies the user is physically at the facility before granting access.
- Digital Key Download: A secure digital key is issued to the user’s device for seamless access.
This process happens instantly, acting like a virtual security guard at the entrance, ensuring:
- Only authorized users gain access.
- Entry complies with facility schedules and payment status.
Understanding Digital Keys
After location-based verification:
- The digital key allows the tenant's device to connect via Bluetooth to entry points and units, bypassing the need for data or Wi-Fi.
- The key expires daily at midnight, ensuring:
- Daily re-validation of credentials.
- Updates for changes like account delinquency, shared access revocation, or move-outs.
This daily refresh keeps the facility secure while maintaining a smooth user experience.
Why Location Services Benefit Tenants
For tenants, location services provide additional safeguards:
- Prevent Pocket Dial Unlocks: The app ensures users cannot accidentally unlock units when not at the facility.
- Seamless On-Site Access: Once the initial location check is complete, the app no longer requires location services during the visit.
- Enhanced Facility Monitoring: Managers can track users’ locations (e.g., gates, units) for security and accountability.
Talking Points for Tenants
If tenants inquire about location services, highlight these points:
- Safety First: Location services ensure the user is at the facility before unlocking units or entry points, preventing unauthorized or accidental access.
- Quick and Convenient: After the first entry point is accessed, the app recognizes the device is on-site and stops requiring location services.
- Daily Revalidation: The system keeps the facility secure by refreshing credentials every day.
By leveraging location services, the Nokē Smart Entry mobile app offers a perfect balance of security and convenience, ensuring tenants and facilities are well-protected.
