Livly and SALTO integration streamlines smart access for CA Ventures
For CA Ventures multifamily properties such as 270 Hennepin, managing keys for everything from move-ins, to guest visitors, vendors, packages, and amenity spaces was daunting. The team needed a solution that was operationally easy for staff to adapt to while providing more convenient access control to residents.

Background
Greystar currently manages 270 Hennepin, a 346-unit building located in the heart of downtown Minneapolis, with sophisticated, modern architecture and design. This thoughtfully designed urban living space offers upscale amenities, yet was missing a smart access control solution to meet the caliber of the rest of the resident experience.
The original need: Package management
When 270 Hennepin opened for residents, there was not a solution in place to easily manage physical keys, unwanted visitors, guests, and vendors for its hundreds of residents. CA Ventures needed a smart access control solution to streamline the check-in experience for residents and staff conveniently and safely. The solution would also need to be operationally easy for staff to take ownership of and implement rules and permissions.
The solution: Livly & SALTO’s smart access integration
CA Ventures turned to Livly & SALTO System's integrated digital key solution to help them tackle their smart access control. The Livly Resident Mobile app offered smart access integration with SALTO's digital smart access for residents, which significantly reduced the time spent for operations to create and manage keys and guest access.
Residents could easily and securely use their phones to access everything from the main entrance, to amenity areas, and the package room, while staff could also easily manage outside services to the building including dog walking, dry cleaning, and delivery services. In addition, the Livly Resident mobile app provided a simple and streamlined, and easily deployable solution for the staff at 270 Hennepin to quickly adapt and in turn, also provide value as an amenity to residents.

Opportunties for Future Integrations

Customer Feedback

“When we look at access control, we think of it as an amenity. The integration with SALTO and Livly has unlocked a ton of new features for us. Residents can now use their phone to get through the building; front door, the gym, their unit. We're also are given the ability to bring in outside services like dog walking, dry cleaning, house cleaning and services that are more available, because access control is less of a pain point.”
"SALTO Systems and Livly have partnered to deliver a best-in-class multifamily platform", says Preston Grutzmacher, SALTO's Residential Business Leader for North America. "Once integrated, buildings become easier to operate, more attractive to prospective tenants and residents enjoy a better experience."
