In the world of high-performance work, every second of friction matters. When you arrive at your office ready to execute on a major project, the last thing you want is to stand in the hallway fumbling through your bag for a keycard or digging into your pocket for a smartphone. At Brick & Mortar, we believe the transition from your car to your desk should be as seamless as your best workflow. That is why we utilize frictionless office access powered by Kisi.
The Magic of the “Wave to Unlock”
The standout feature of our access system is the “Kisi Wave.” For our members, it feels like a modern convenience designed for the way we actually live. Think of it like checking into a hotel and tapping your keycard against the reader instead of hunting for a physical key — except here, your own phone is the key.
You don’t need to wake your phone or open an app. Simply hold your phone in your hand and give it a wave in front of the door reader — the reader recognizes your encrypted digital signature instantly, and the door unlocks. And if you wear a smart watch, it’s even easier: no need to reach for your phone at all. A quick wave of your wrist does the job. It’s the ultimate solution for the professional on the move, ensuring that your hands stay free and your focus stays intact.
Why Frictionless Access is a Productivity Tool
It might seem like a small detail, but removing the “micro-friction” of entry sets the tone for your entire workday. High-performers know that staying in a state of flow is about removing distractions before they start. By eliminating the physical barrier of keys and fobs, Brick & Mortar ensures that your mental energy is reserved for your work, not your commute.
This system also empowers our 24/7 access model. Because there is no “gatekeeper” or front desk to check in with, you have total autonomy over your schedule. Whether you are arriving for a deep-work session before sunrise or finishing a late-night strategy shift, the experience is the same: a simple wave, and you’re in.
More Than Just the Front Door
What many members don’t realize is that Kisi doesn’t stop at the front entrance — it grants seamless access to every space you use inside Brick & Mortar.
Take the team of four running their growing business out of a private office. Each teammate comes and goes on their own schedule, walking straight into their dedicated office for deep-focus work or spontaneous collaboration, without a separate key or code to manage. Or consider members with a client-facing business who rely on professional meeting spaces. When they book a conference room — even at a different location than their home base — Kisi access is already set up and ready, with buffer time built in on either side so they can transition into and out of the space without missing a beat. Step away from the kitchen island, give the wave, and lock in for the call — no fumbling, no front desk, no interruption to your flow.
Secure, Sophisticated, and Close By
Security is never sacrificed for convenience. The technology we use utilizes end-to-end encryption, ensuring that our spaces remain a safe, professional sanctuary for all members. We don’t believe you should have to sacrifice modern tech just because you’ve traded the downtown commute for a professional office close by.
