DYNAMIC ELECTRONIC DOOR LOCK CONTROL SYSTEM

摘要

A method of controlling access to a real estate property includes installing a dynamic electronically-controlled lockset on an exterior door of a real estate property, maintaining, at a remote location, a reference device adapted to present a value of a second dynamic access code to one or more users located in the real estate office, receiving, at the real estate agent location, a request from a user for a current value of the second dynamic access code, examining the reference device to determine the current value of the second dynamic access code, and providing the current value of the second dynamic access code to the user for input into the electronically-controlled lockset. The lockset is adapted to unlock upon receiving a value corresponding to a first dynamic access code programmed therein. The second dynamic access code is time-synchronized with the first dynamic access code programmed in the electronically-controlled lockset.

1. A method of controlling access to a building, comprising:
installing an electronically-controlled lockset on an exterior door of a building, wherein a locking mechanism of the electronically-controlled lockset is disposed in an operable relationship with a door frame in which the exterior door is installed and the state of the locking mechanism controls whether the exterior door may be opened, wherein the electronically-controlled lockset is configured to release the locking mechanism upon an access code being entered into the electronically-controlled lockset, wherein the access code is valid for releasing the locking mechanism for a predetermined window of time; maintaining a reference device at a separate location that is located remotely from the building, the reference device being configured to generate a current value of the access code, wherein the current value of the access code is time-synchronized with the electronically-controlled lockset; and providing the current value of the access code to a user in response to a request from the user for the access code to access the building.
