Boosting Security, Streamlining Access: Trion Properties’ Success at Forty6Twenty

Trion Properties, a multifamily real estate owner and operator, was looking to enhance the value of their Forty6Twenty property, a stand-alone 28-unit apartment building located in Culver City, CA. The community recently underwent a full exterior renovation and interior upgrades, including upgrading the access control solution to bolster security and optimize resident access and visitor management. However, their new system was plagued with reliability issues, frustrating residents and visitors, and requiring frequent intervention from the property manager, Hari Deevi. Hari envisioned a smooth and secure entry experience for everyone, reducing on-site management efforts.

Solutions Implemented:

Trion Properties installed Rently’s Access Panel with Intercom at their main entrance. This system was chosen for its user-friendly interface, diverse entry methods, built-in intercom capability, and all from one hardware device. Residents now enjoy the convenience of personalized and trackable entry codes, while visitors and delivery personnel use a modern QR-code-based intercom that instantly connects the visitor to the resident via smartphones. This enables residents to visually and verbally verify visitors before granting entry, facilitating swift communication and remote unlocking. The result is a significantly streamlined visitor management process, enhanced security, and an improved resident experience.
