ONE
5 Step Implementation
Process To Integrate KISI
With Your Current System

KISI Integrates With Existing Access Control Systems
● Kisi works with dry contact
inputs.
● It can work as either a
standalone system or
piggyback off an existing
access control system as a
supplement.

KISI Installs at the Office Door

or KISI Installs in your IT Room

Step 1:
Install the KISI App on your
Smartphone
Download the KISI app on your
smartphone by typing “Kisi” in the
search box on your respective
App Store.
The KISI App is available on:
● Google Play on Android
● App Store on iOS

Step 2:
Register Your Admin Email
for Access Oversight
The master admin will have the
ability to oversee all access for
your company. As the
administrator, this person will
have the ability to:
● Issue Keys to Employees
● Create Groups with Different
Access Levels
● Monitor Access Logs
● Appoint Sub-Managers

Once you receive your device in the
mail you will need to connect it to
power and WiFi. That process is all
done from within the app:
1. Open the Kisi App, sign in, and
select “Settings & Setup”.
1. Select “Setup Kisi Router”
1. Choose the wifi network you
want KISI to run on and enter the
network’s password.
Note: It must be a 2.4 Ghz
network and it must be
password protected!
Step 3:
Connect the KISI Device to
Power and WiFi

Next you will need to use the blinkup
process to configure the KISI device.
This is also done from within the KISI
app and is simple as pointing your
smartphone at the KISI device.
When you successful blinkup the
device:
● You will receive a pop up
message on your phone saying
the connection is successful!
● You are then given the option to
name your Kisi Router.
Step 4:
Teather the KISI Device to
the Admin Phone

Successful Blink Up Occurs
When The WiFi Chip Blinks Green!

“One of the most important variables for us was how many people could use a
lock. A lot of out-of-the-box consumer-grade systems for residential buildings only
allow up to 5 keys, which would never work for our customer base…”
“We wanted to set the bar
high and have more users in
our space, but we had a
problem with giving out so
many keys.
Danger!Awesome Access Control Scenario
- Dariush Nejad,
Product Lead

● High member turnover where physical key and key
fob management is unable to keep up
● Most access management systems lack back-end
usability
● Key card and RFID systems does not allow

issue temporary keys and
keep on any users who
