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 yourSmartphone
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”.
2. Select “Setup Kisi Router”
3. 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

“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.
