Door Prop Alarms for Multi-Tenant Housing

At Security & Life Integrations, we understand that maintaining the integrity of your access control system is crucial to ensuring the security of your property. Door prop alarms play a vital role in this, helping to ensure that doors are properly secured and alerting you when they’re not. Our door prop alarms are designed to enhance your existing security measures, providing comprehensive protection for your property.

A Propped Fire Door Is a Liability, Not Just an Inconvenience

A laundry room door propped open with a trash can or a stairwell door held for move-in day feels harmless until it's a fire exit that failed inspection or an unsecured entrance a stranger walked through. When that happens, the liability falls on you, the property manager, not the tenant who propped it open. Door prop systems catch this the moment it happens, at the exact locations where it happens most.

Laundry Room Doors: Propped open for convenience during peak hours and left that way long after.
Stairwells: Held open during move-ins and move-outs, then forgotten.
Parking Garage Access: Propped by residents unloading groceries, leaving a vehicle entrance unsecured.
Service Entrances: Left open by vendors and maintenance crews between trips.

From Alert to Action

A door prop alert on its own just tells you a door is open. Paired with your cameras and access control, it tells you the whole story: you get notified, pull up the camera on that door, and decide in seconds whether it's a resident carrying groceries or something that needs someone sent out.

You Get Notified: An alert hits your phone or the cloud portal the moment a door has been held open too long.
You Check the Camera: Pull up the live or recorded view for that door without leaving your desk.
You Decide the Response: Close it out if it's nothing, or send maintenance or security if it isn't.
