Transforming Access Control: PDK Integration with Aperio Wireless Locks



ProdataKey (PDK) is a cutting-edge mobile-first cloud-based access control solution that provides businesses with unparalleled security and convenience. PDK is designed to work seamlessly with mobile access, enabling users to control and monitor access to their buildings from anywhere in the world.


One of the most exciting features of PDK is the integration of Aperio wireless locks by ASSA ABLOY. ASSA ABLOY is a global leader in security solutions, offering a wide range of products to keep people, property, and assets safe. Recognized for their innovation and commitment to sustainability, ASSA ABLOY is a trusted provider for commercial, institutional, and residential security needs.


PDK's integration with Aperio offers robust wireless locksets with RFID technology that communicates with the central Aperio Hub to secure openings with the ability to connect up to 64 doors with Aperio Locks installed.


The integration of PDK and Aperio is made possible by PDK's powerful API. This allows for easy integration with other systems. This facilitates a seamless and secure access control experience, with all data and controls in one place. In addition, businesses can quickly expand and customize their access control systems as needed, ensuring that they always have the security and convenience that they need.



Aperio locks are known for their sleek and modern design. They are a perfect addition to any space that values both style and security. With a variety of finishes and designs to choose from, these locks can complement any aesthetic. The clean lines and minimalist look of Aperio locks make them a subtle yet elegant addition to any door.


Aperio's wireless connection to the hub is cost-effective by reducing the need for extensive wiring or drilling, which can lead to significant cost savings with labor hours and costly wiring, especially in large buildings or multi-level structures.


Ben Johnson of Hoosier Security, a seasoned veteran in the security industry, said

“To the end user, an Aperio lock appears and functions just like any traditional door in PDK making it easy for them to control and manage. As an integrator, I can reduce hardware and labor costs while providing my customer with a solution to secure doors, cabinets, and lockers without affecting the aesthetics of the building or door opening.”

Aperio locks are praised for their versatility and unique applications. One of the unique applications is the KS100 series server cabinet lock. This lock is specifically designed for secure server cabinets and data center applications. It ensures that cabinet doors are closed and locked while providing real-time monitoring of the locked state. This ensures that the data center is always secure, and in case of any security breach, the facility management will be alerted in real-time.


The ES100 series wireless electric strike also offers a unique application, an ideal solution for retrofitting an existing building with access control. The K100 series cabinet lock is perfect for secure storage solutions, such as lockers, drawers, and cabinets, controlling access and providing real-time monitoring of the locked state. Additionally, the IN100 lock is suitable for controlled access to high-security areas, such as a laboratory or research facility, and R100 with Aperio wireless technology can be installed on glass, stone, granite, or marble entryways, while still being able to connect wirelessly to the hub.

In summary, ProdataKey and Aperio are the perfect combinations for businesses looking for a powerful, versatile, and secure access control solution. With PDK's mobile-first cloud-based platform and API, businesses can easily control and monitor access to their buildings from anywhere in the world. And, Aperio's wireless access to the hub is cost-effective by reducing the need for expensive wiring or drilling, saying goodbye to unnecessary labor hours. Businesses can ensure that their buildings are always secure, providing a more convenient and secure access control experience.
