No gateway or network settings required. Realize remote control just by installing it
Glamo Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Toshima-ku, Tokyo, President and CEO: Isao Goto, hereinafter referred to as Glamo) has launched Japan's first smart lock equipped with LTE-M (Cat.M1) communication function, "Glamo Smart Lock for LTE-M". ” has been developed.
Sales will begin for BtoC and BtoB from February 2019 (scheduled).
This product will be exhibited at the "12-17" booth at the "AI/Smart Housing EXPO (Tokyo Big Sight)" held from the 36th of this month.
With the recent increase in IoT housing needs, smart locks, which serve as the entrance to a home, are becoming increasingly important.
On the other hand, problems were the poor construction workability of installing a gateway to connect to the Internet, and the high degree of difficulty in setting up a network with a router.
The "Glamo Smart Lock for LTE-M" developed by Glamo is the first in Japan to have a communication function that allows direct connection to the LTE-M line provided by a mobile communication carrier, and is available in areas where mobile phone LTE radio waves are available. It can be used in almost all areas.
This eliminates the need for fixed internet lines, gateways, complex network settings, etc. that were previously required, and at the same time, after installing a smart lock, you can immediately download the app and read the QR code attached to the smart lock. It becomes possible to issue and delete a PIN code, lock and unlock the door remotely from a smartphone or management system.
In addition, "Glamo Smart Lock for LTE-M" is powered by four AA alkaline batteries and does not require any door modification, so it can be installed anywhere.
Challenges of installing LTE-M in smart locks
Although LTE-M communication technology has low power consumption when the function is dormant, it consumes high power during communication, making it difficult to perform frequent communication with ordinary dry batteries.
For this reason, by widening the communication interval, the timing for updating key information becomes extremely long, which poses the problem of reducing convenience.
"Glamo Smart Lock for LTE-M" uses Glamo's proprietary technology to achieve a battery life of up to two years using four AA alkaline batteries, and at the same time, it can instantly reflect the key information issued by the server. is now possible.
Please note that a patent application is pending for this technology.
Glamo Smart Lock for LTE-M app
This is a simple-to-use smartphone app that consolidates the functions of "Glamo Smart Lock for LTE-M".
You can check the lock/unlock status of the key, issue a PIN, delete the key, check communication history, battery status, etc.

About LTE-M (Cat.M1)
"LTE-M" is a communication method for IoT that utilizes existing LTE networks and enables long-distance communication with low power consumption.
Although it limits communication speed, it consumes low power, making it possible to run on-board devices on batteries and connecting directly to the LTE network, so it is expected to be used in a wide range of applications.
In Japan, KDDI, Softbank, and NTT DoCoMo have started providing services this year.

“Glamo Smart Lock for LTE-M” Other features
``Glamo Smart Lock'' is a strong smart lock product with a replaceable cylinder type that can withstand large-scale operation, unlike general smart lock products that are easily replaceable. This is a smart lock product with a new concept that guarantees the durability and reliability required of a basic "key," but also realizes advanced functions linked to a network, and has an extremely high affinity with IoT.
Manual type + electric type
If you forget to lock the door, you can use remote electric locking, or you can normally lock and unlock the door manually.
(Depending on the settings, it is also possible to operate only electrically.)
→Achieve longer battery life
→You can adjust the force yourself to deal with poorly installed doors.
→ Longer life of moving parts such as motors
Cylinder exchange type
By replacing the entire cylinder, you can reduce the time and cost of replacing cylinders when you move out.
It also prevents picking. Of course, there is no need for any processing such as drilling or screwing the door.
Card/PIN code compatible
In addition to the PIN code input method using the numeric keypad, smartphones and IC cards equipped with NFC and FeliCa can also be used. You can use it even if you don't have a smartphone.
Issuance of one-time locks with expiration dates
Since it is possible to issue multiple one-time locks, it is also possible to issue keys that can be used temporarily by a third party.
Advanced security features
In addition to encryption of the communication route and anti-counterfeiting of the NFC card, we have adopted an extremely strong design for both software and hardware security, such as the metal casing.
Additionally, if an attempt is made to forcefully unlock the Glamo Smart Lock, or if an abnormal temperature rise due to a fire is detected, an alert can be issued and a notification can be sent to a specific recipient.
Remote management of key information
The key information of "Glamo Smart Lock" is linked to a cloud-based management system, and can be used to update keys when moving in and out of rental housing remotely, and to issue temporary keys to previewers and maintenance companies. Correspond.
Since there is no need to replace the cylinder or visit the site, it is possible to significantly reduce key management costs.
Material
The outdoor side is made of metal and the indoor side is made of reinforced plastic, making it a strong structure.
Differences from general smart locks
There are many cases where problems occur with smart lock products introduced to reduce costs and improve convenience, resulting in increased costs.
"Glamo Smart Lock" is a product that is intended to be installed and managed in large-scale properties, and focuses on reducing problems that occur after installation.
Manual type + electric type
If you forget to lock the door, you can use the remote electric lock, or you can normally lock and unlock the door manually. This method has the following advantages:
(Depending on the settings, it is also possible to operate only electrically.)
→ Realizes longer battery life
→ You can adjust the force yourself to deal with doors that are poorly installed.
→ Longer life of moving parts such as motors
Fixed method
By firmly fixing the cylinder part instead of pasting it with double-sided tape, it prevents tampering, falling off, and malfunction.
Cylinder exchange type
By replacing the entire cylinder, you can reduce the time and cost of replacing cylinders when you move out. It also prevents picking.
Card/PIN code compatible
In addition to the PIN code input method using the numeric keypad, smartphones and IC cards equipped with NFC and FeliCa can also be used. You can use it even if you don't have a smartphone.
