Storable Access Control: Contactless Entry App (Mobile Entry)

The Contactless Entry app is an application for Access Control customers. The app allows customers to enable facility access for their tenants. This contactless entry solution eliminates the need to remember gate codes, cards, and fobs, providing a seamless experience to open facility gates.

SiteLink facilities using Access Control can opt-in to the Mobile Entry App if they want their tenants to have access to the Contactless Entry application. Tenants can use the app to enter the facility if their device is within 0.5 miles of the facility. 

 

How to Turn On Contactless Entry (Mobile Entry App)

Note: Before granting Contactless Entry access, please ensure your tenants have an email address in their tenant accounts. Without a valid email address, tenants cannot access the app. If tenants add an email after Contactless Entry is turned on, the app will not work until an internal data sync is performed (typically at midnight).

1. Click on the Access button in SiteLink Web Edition.

How to Send Bulk Invites to Existing Tenants

1. From the Settings screen, click Send Invite Email to All Accessors.

 

Note: This will opt-in all tenants that have an email address on file; it does not send invite emails to non-tenant accessors. Non-tenant accessors require an email address entered into a tenant's profile during the opt-in process.

How to Send Invites to Individual Tenants

8. The tenant is able to view any access points or gates they are able to open.

 

Note: Clicking Open within a 0.5 mile range from the facility will open the gate device. Only devices with a compatible relay can be opened.

9. If the tenant gets a Location Undetected error code and is within the 0.5 mile range, they are required to turn on location services for their phone's website browser. After turning on their location, they have to close out of their app and re-open. If it still does not work then they will need to delete the bookmarked page on their phone and repeat steps 1-5.

10. If the tenant receives a Too Far Away From Storage Facility error, they are outside the 0.5 mile range.
