Smart Upgrade for a Hospitality Venue
A venue-wide smart upgrade for a St Kilda bar, combining access control, CCTV, smart lighting, locks, and network redesign to improve security and operational oversight.
The brief
How the project started
The venue needed stronger after-hours protection and easier day-to-day management, without adding friction for staff or compromising the atmosphere of the space.
Our approach
How we shaped the solution
Austrend deployed keyless access control with mobile credentials and centralized management, eliminating the need for physical keys while giving the owner remote oversight of access permissions and staff movement.
The upgrade also introduced a 16-channel commercial CCTV system with intelligent alerts, partial smart lighting control, upgraded office smart locks, and a redesigned network infrastructure for reliable site-wide performance.
Project overview
The finished system supports hospitality operations with better visibility, tighter access management, improved security response, and more stable connectivity across the venue.
