Battery-powered wireless lock technology for extending compatible access-control systems to interior and specialty openings.
Products and selection guidance
Aperio locks, cylinders, exit-device trims and hubs are selected by door format, host PACS integration, credential technology, online/offline behavior and radio layout. Aperio is not a standalone brand promise that every lock works with every access platform; verify hub, firmware, credential and integration certification.
- Wireless mortise/cylindrical and IN-series lock choices

Site-specific design
Boston High Tech inventories existing equipment and validates current manufacturer compatibility before specifying reuse, migration or replacement. Qualifications may be confirmed privately when needed; license numbers, certificate copies and named certificate-holder details are not published.

How to compare and specify this product family
For ASSA ABLOY Aperio Wireless Locks and Hubs, the right model and architecture depend on the site, existing infrastructure and operating policy. A proposal should clearly document the following electronic lock and door-hardware system decisions before equipment is ordered:
- Opening type, handing, frame and door condition
- Fire rating, egress, accessibility and code constraints
- Fail-safe or fail-secure operation and emergency release
- Credential, reader and controller compatibility
- Battery, wireless gateway and offline behavior
- Mechanical key override, maintenance and lifecycle support
Installation, testing and handoff
Each opening is surveyed as a complete assembly. We verify the door, frame, handing, existing prep, latching, closer, egress hardware, power path and the required emergency behavior before specifying a lock. Installation includes alignment and mechanical correction within scope, cable and power testing, credential enrollment, door-state and request-to-exit tests, and failure-mode verification. The owner receives opening schedules, administrator guidance and maintenance requirements; private credential data and certificate details are not published.
Frequently asked questions
Questions about extending an existing access-control system to interior and specialty openings with Aperio wireless locks and hubs.
Will Aperio locks talk to the access system we already run?
Only where that specific pairing is certified. This page states that Aperio is not a standalone brand promise that every lock works with every access platform, so name your host system and its version, then verify hub, firmware, credential and integration certification for that exact combination before any lock is ordered.
Which openings are these wireless locks meant for?
Interior and specialty openings that a compatible access-control system needs to reach without a home run of cable to each door. The page lists wireless mortise and cylindrical locks, IN-series choices, cylinders, exit-device trims and cabinet or specialty options. Door format decides which applies, so handing, prep, latching, the existing exit device and the frame condition are recorded opening by opening.
How many hubs will a floor need?
That comes out of the radio plan, not a door count. The Aperio hub and real-time wireless topology are laid out from the actual building: wall construction, distances, shafts, metal partitions and where each lock sits relative to a hub position. Nothing on this page states a hub capacity, so the equipment list follows the survey drawing rather than an assumption carried from another site.
Is there any wiring at the lock itself?
Aperio is battery-powered wireless lock technology, so the network and power work concentrates at the hub locations instead of at every door. A proposal documents Aperio hub and real-time wireless topology together with network, power, standby battery and outage behavior, and places battery replacement inside administrator training, backup, documentation and maintenance. Door format, handing and frame condition still govern what is fitted at the opening.
What do these doors do when the host system is unreachable?
Each door does what its specified online/offline behavior calls for, which this page lists as a selection criterion beside door format, host PACS integration, credential technology and radio layout. Write the required outcome for every opening into the sequence of operations before ordering, then prove it at commissioning with the host taken offline. Free egress and fire-alarm requirements are unchanged by the radio path.
Can a door with an exit device be included?
Yes. Exit-device trims are among the Aperio formats listed here, alongside locks, cylinders and cabinet or specialty options. Which trim applies depends on the existing device manufacturer and function, so that device is identified during the survey rather than at install. Door, lock, free-egress, accessibility and fire-alarm requirements are checked first, since the mechanical exit path has to remain as approved.
