Customer:

Opening to residents in 2021, Ascott Thonglor Bangkok is a luxury serviced residence with an unbeatable location on Sukhumvit Road, Bangkok’s upscale and lively neighbourhood. With access to a variety of top tier eateries, lifestyle venues, international schools, multinational corporations and other city attractions, the property offers easy access to the city’s major highways and public transportation. Ascott Thonglor Bankok boasts 451 spacious studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom and three-bedroom apartments, and it is ideal for both short-term and extended stays.

Challenge:

At the center of Thailand’s largest city, Ascott Thonglor Bangkok identified enhanced security and service as a leading factor in successfully meeting resident needs. The property desired a leading solution that could always ensure resident and staff safety while providing convenient access to a seamless property environment.

Solution:

Desiring an industry-leading security solution that is as convenient as it is secure, Ascott Thonglor Bangkok chose ASSA ABLOY Global Solutions to install 451 VingCard Essence locks and implement Mobile Access features. A global leader in property security, ASSA ABLOY Global Solution’s VingCard Essence solution allowed for the property to implement the industry’s latest data encryption abilities that prevent unauthorized key cloning and a potential breach in security. Designed with a minimalistic, customizable approach, VingCard Essence is also capable of blending in seamlessly with Ascott Thonglor’s décor, concealing its hardware within the door and instead showcasing only a sleek RFID/BLE reader. By simply adding the Signature RFID reader to existing door hardware, the property immediately gains advanced encryption abilities that prevent the unauthorized cloning of keycard data.

The future-proof design of VingCard Essence allowed Ascott Thonglor to activate Mobile Access technologies, which allows residents to utilize a digital key on their mobile device, eliminating the need for a physical key. Once received, the digital key information is stored on a secure communication channel, allowing for instant authorized access.
