With Unloc through SØBO

  • Access that follows the change of ownershipOwners are read from BBL Pivotal every night. A new owner gets access on their move-in day, and the old one loses it after moving out.
  • Share access in secondsThe board and residents give access to family, tradespeople and couriers from their phones, and remove it as easily.
  • Upgrade the intercom with DoorbellVisitors ring from their own phone, on the intercom you have. No new hardware or name lists to keep up to date.
  • Within the operating budgetA one-off cost for the doors and a running service, which most boards can approve without a general meeting.
Automatic change of ownership

When a flat is sold, access moves with it.

Unloc reads owners and addresses from BBL Pivotal, which already knows who lives where. The board picks once which doors each address gets. The rest runs by itself.

Covers the shared doors, such as the entrance, garage and storage.

  1. Every night

    Owners are read

    Owners and addresses are synced, so nobody keeps a list up to date by hand.

  2. Move-in day

    The new owner is in

    Access to the doors of their address, and the right to share it with family and tradespeople.

  3. The night after moving out

    The previous owner is out

    Access is removed after the move-out day, so nobody is left without it mid-move.

  4. New board

    The board keeps up

    Board members get and lose access to Unloc Control by their dates on the board.

How a cooperative gets started

  1. 1

    Get in touch

    Fill in the form with your cooperative and its number of homes. It goes straight to Bosør, who follows you up.

  2. 2

    Site visit and quote

    A certified installer looks at the entrances, garage gate and storage rooms, and you get one quote for the building.

  3. 3

    Installation and go-live

    The installer connects the doors. Residents get access in the Unloc app, and ordinary keys keep working.

Questions

Do we have to buy Unloc through Bosør?

No, but if you do, owners are read from BBL Pivotal, so access follows the change of ownership by itself. Buy directly, and the board adds and removes residents itself.

What does it cost?

A one-off cost to connect the doors, plus a running service. For most, both fit in the operating budget, so the board can decide on its own.

What if someone doesn’t want to use a phone?

Entirely optional. Ordinary keys work as before; nobody has to change their habits.

Which doors can be connected?

Entrances, garage gates, storage rooms, barriers and shared rooms, on most of the lock and access systems found in Norwegian housing cooperatives.
