In this episode of PropTech Pulse, George and Bec of EVVA join host Nick Bouris to discuss their wire-free access control system EVVA AirKey and how it is revolutionising home locking systems.

With security a core concern for any home, George and Bec will share how their technology, which would see a home locked and unlocked from a smartphone app or computer, compares with the security of a more traditional key lock system.  They will unpack their extensive history in locking systems, the costs involved in implementing the technology and the benefits of a security system which offers immediacy when allowing or revoking someone’s access to a property.

Addressing concerns surrounding the system being technology based, George and Bec will discuss the mechanical option that they offer and tackle the question of “what happens if my phone goes flat?”.
