ASSA ABLOY Secures BMCE Bank HQ with Aperio

ASSA ABLOY’s Aperio wireless locking technology has been installed at the headquarters of BMCE Bank in Casablanca, to provide an instant upgrade to an access control system, without compromising aesthetics.

BMCE Bank is one of the largest commercial banks in Morocco, with a network of 540 branches. As part of a complete overhaul of its headquarters security arrangements, ASSA ABLOY Access Control’s Aperio wireless locking technology was selected for 50 of its glass doors.

With Aperio’s flexible design and ability to work with RS485 protocol and Wiegand Interface, together with iCLASS, MIFARE Plus and DESFire RFID-technology credentials, there was no issue with it instantly connecting to the existing online access control system at BMCE Bank, with minimal modification to doors and premises.

“To have selected Aperio for such a prestigious building, where security is of paramount importance, is true testament to the abilities of this revolutionary technology.,” said Chris Bone, ASSA ABLOY vice president Access Control EMEA. “This installation really demonstrates how Aperio can provide end users in any market across the globe, with a simple and intelligent way of upgrading the controllability and security levels of their premises.”
