Case Study: The Student Housing Company achieves real-time, centralized access control and improved student safety with SALTO KS

The Student Housing Company - Customer Case Study

The Student Housing Company, part of the Global Student Accommodation family, operates four Australian properties housing over 1,600 students and needed secure, flexible access control to support its brand promise of safety and peace of mind for students and parents. They required real‑time monitoring of individual room and communal space access (including time- and gender‑restricted areas), the ability to revoke lost credentials quickly, and safer after‑hours procedures — challenges they addressed by deploying the cloud‑based SALTO KS access control system.

SALTO KS gives The Student Housing Company centralized, real‑time management across all properties, with mobile/tag credentials, configurable access groups, instant notifications and remote door‑opening. As a result, staff can see when a student last accessed a room, receive alerts when students return, allow cross‑property access (e.g., gym access at another site), revoke lost credentials instantly, and reduce in‑person contact while improving response times — all supporting efficient management of their four properties and 1,600+ residents.
