ASSA ABLOY Launches Virtual Tour Demonstrating Security Solutions

ASSA ABLOY recently launched a 360° virtual online tour demonstrating access control and security and solutions to help higher education administrators address common challenges. According to a press release, the tour allows university decision-makers to visualize how these solutions can assist in creating a safe, sustainable and healthy educational environment.

The self-guided walkthrough tour demonstrates the importance of door security and access control on a university campus. The immersive experience vastly simplifies the process of determining which solutions are best suited for various degrees of problems.

“With the help of our 360° online tour, universities will be able to visualize how door security solutions can be used to address everyday challenges, from ADA compliance to classroom scheduling and residence hall security,” said Jeremy Saline, Senior Director of Business Development, ASSA ABLOY Opening Solutions Americas. “Our goal is to make it as easy as possible for universities to understand how they can improve safety and security on their campuses.”

The virtual tour is available online from any device with an Internet connection.
