Access Intelligence

Real‑World Lockstep Deployment Scenarios

From storage facilities to remote field infrastructure, LynkD enables granular, auditable, low‑maintenance access without radios or persistent apps.

5–8 yrs
Battery Design Target
≤4K LOC
Firmware Size
Cage → Rack → Locker
Granularity
60s / 1h / 24h
Windows
Self‑Storage & Asset Yards
Granular, code‑based control across hundreds of units without wiring or radio enrollment.

Challenges

  • • Traditional rekey costs & tenant turnover overhead
  • • Inconsistent audit trails across mechanical + digital mixes
  • • Radio locks drain batteries & require app coordination

Solution

  • • Deploy padlocks on every unit – provision in minutes via QR
  • • Windowed codes per tenant; revoke instantly without visiting site
  • • Offline hour/24h codes for limited connectivity zones

Impact

  • • Cut turnover labor 40–60% vs rekeying
  • • Reduce battery service cycles (years not months)
  • • Unified audit: who / what / where / when

Logistics & Fleet Staging
Secure gates, trailers & cages in distributed yards with deterministic offline capability.

Challenges

  • • Keys shared among shifts – no accountability
  • • Cellular dead zones block app‑based unlocking
  • • High maintenance for BLE / telematics combos

Solution

  • • Assign driver / contractor time windows (shift or route)
  • • Pre‑generate codes for off‑grid segments
  • • Audit trail feeds analytics for yard dwell & access density

Impact

  • • Shrink unauthorized access incidents
  • • Improve dwell visibility for high‑value assets
  • • Lower device maintenance visits

Rental & Hospitality Turnovers
Frictionless guest & cleaner scheduling without forcing an app install.

Challenges

  • • Keys hidden / lost; smart locks require app & Wi‑Fi onboarding
  • • Overlapping bookings create credential confusion
  • • Battery & connectivity failure risk during peak seasons

Solution

  • • SMS / email delivery of valid stay window codes
  • • Cleaner sub‑windows automatically inserted between stays
  • • Offline resilience for network / ISP outages

Impact

  • • Reduce guest access support tickets
  • • Automate cleaner scheduling windows
  • • Eliminate physical key courier trips

Field Service & Contractors
Temporary, auditable access for rotating crews and service vendors.

Challenges

  • • Shared mechanical keys – no per‑tech attribution
  • • Complex badge provisioning for short engagements
  • • Radio credential sync delays

Solution

  • • Issue shift‑length or task‑length code windows
  • • Layer geo or time MFA (premium) for sensitive zones
  • • Auto‑expire & revoke without on‑site collection

Impact

  • • Shorten onboarding to minutes
  • • Increase attribution coverage to 100%
  • • Cut lost key incidence to near zero

Remote / Off‑Grid Infrastructure
Deterministic windowed codes provide continuity when networks vanish.

Challenges

  • • No reliable cellular for cloud handshake
  • • Technicians carry bundles of physical keys
  • • Risk of lockouts during disaster scenarios

Solution

  • • Pre‑stage hour / daily windows for mission period
  • • Local event buffering until sync returns
  • • Centralized post‑op audit & exception surfacing

Impact

  • • Reduce physical keyset size dramatically
  • • Maintain access continuity during outages
  • • Faster post‑event forensic review

Utilities & Telecom Cabinets
Scalable granular access to distributed cabinets & shelters.

Challenges

  • • Key duplication risk across subcontract layers
  • • Truck rolls to rekey after personnel changes
  • • Radio updates difficult across large geos

Solution

  • • Provision per‑technician windows (geo fenced optional)
  • • Bulk revoke instantly without physical visit
  • • Tamper / low power insights (premium)

Impact

  • • Slash rekey truck rolls
  • • Increase cabinet visit attribution
  • • Extend battery replacement intervals

Why It Wins Versus Legacy Smart Locks

Legacy Radio Model
  • • BLE / Wi‑Fi enrollment
  • • Battery drain from chatter
  • • App dependency & updates
  • • RF attack vectors
Mechanical Keys
  • • No attribution
  • • Costly rekey cycles
  • • Key loss / duplication risk
  • • No remote revoke
Lockstep Model
  • • Deterministic windows
  • • No radios / hubs
  • • Granular deployment
  • • Unified audit trail
