News Releases

MILWAUKEE, Nov. 1, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Master Lock, the global leader in security, will introduce the all-new Master Lock Vault Enterprise property access management solution to real estate professionals at the 2018 REALTORS® Conference & Expo, November 2-5 in Boston. With the option to fully integrate with ShowingTime, Master Lock Vault Enterprise provides real estate professionals one convenient solution to manage the entire property showing process, from scheduling to accessing properties.

By integrating easy-to-use software, a mobile app and Master Lock's Bluetooth®-enabled lock boxes, Master Lock Vault Enterprise provides a smart, simple and secure way to manage access to properties – without long-term contracts or monthly data-usage or shared-access fees.   

"The Master Lock Company has supported the real estate industry for nearly two decades with our expanding line of innovative lock box solutions," said David Claar, vice president of engineering and new product development. "With Master Lock Vault Enterprise, we're combining end user insights, our security expertise, and the latest technology to make it easier for agents to focus on selling properties while also reducing costs for themselves and their firms."

With Master Lock Vault Enterprise, administrators at real estate firms can share access quickly and easily with showing agents and trusted partners such as contractors, inspectors and homeowners. The ability to efficiently manage many locks and many users means that only authorized users can access lock boxes. Smartphone access eliminates the security risk and hassle of manual code management.

• Conveniently schedule temporary, permanent or future access – Administrators can assign Bluetooth credentials by time, date, user or group. Optional temporary codes ensure access can be changed or used on a limited time basis.
• Increased security – Web interface provides access to robust data and audit trails, so firms know who accessed which property and when, increasing accountability and ensuring property security.
• Enhanced reputation – Associations and agents benefit from improving the uniformity of listings, enhancing their businesses reputation for service and innovation, all at a lower cost.

SHOWINGTIME INTEGRATION

The Master Lock Company and ShowingTime, the leading real estate showing and scheduling management provider, have partnered to offer one fully integrated system to manage the entire property showing process. This end-to-end solution drives efficiencies by enabling agents to access appointments in ShowingTime and unlock the listing's lock box through a simple in-app button. Real estate firms gain peace of mind with increased security because access is granted only within the confirmed appointment date and time and all activity with each lock box is tracked, providing granular reporting of who accessed which properties and when.  

The Master Lock Company invites real estate professionals to stop by its booth (#856) for hands-on demonstrations. Master Lock Vault Enterprise and Bluetooth Lock Boxes are available for purchase now. To learn more and request additional information, visit: MasterLock.com/Solutions/Vault.
