Dormakaba Saffire Electronic LX-L RFID Privacy Cylindrical Lockset with Thumbturn, Bluetooth

Dormakaba Saffire LX-L Electronic RFID Privacy Cylindrical Lockset

The Saffire LX-L combines sophisticated RFID contactless reader technology with Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) in a contemporary cylindrical lockset designed for multi-housing applications. Property managers gain a single platform to manage resident units, common areas, amenity spaces, and perimeter entries — while residents enjoy the convenience of mobile, fob, wristband, or keycard credentials.

Key Features

• Bluetooth Mobile Access: BLE technology lets residents use a smartphone via dormakaba's BlueSky mobile access app, in addition to RFID fobs and keycards.
• Intuitive Access Management: Managed by dormakaba Community software (sold separately) — a single platform for residences, amenities, common areas, and perimeters with no additional software required.
• Low Maintenance Operation: Fully sealed contactless reader; battery life up to 2 years under normal use; low battery indicator for proactive maintenance.
• No Touring Required: New credentials automatically cancel prior credentials when presented to the lock — no need to visit each lock to update access.
• Customizable Key Levels: User-defined key groups for residents, leasing, maintenance, services, and vendors.
• Audit Trail: Stores the 4,000 most recent access events with real-time date/time stamp; automatically adjusts for daylight saving time.
