Fargo, N.D.’s KVLY-TV has an
interesting report on the future of electronic access to buildings and
multifamily communities. Spurred by an investigation the news station launched
earlier this year, the story highlights a growing concern about the safety and
security of physical, keyed locks. Namely, reporters were able to take a
picture of a co-worker’s keys, send the picture in to a key copying website,
and then use the copy they got back to unlock the co-worker's door and walk into the home. Those kinds of nefarious capabilities, as well as the cost of electronic
access systems dropping nearly 70 percent in recent years, according to the
report, have led to increased adoption by many businesses in the station’s
viewing area, including several multifamily properties. Again, stay tuned for
our own special report on electronic access systems, coming soon. Watch and
read the full KVLY report here.
