Managing Areas and Sub-Areas for doors

CISA AERO allows you to organize doors using a two-level grouping structure: Area and Sub-Area. This helps to better manage and navigate your facility’s doors.

Doors will be displayed according to this grouping both on the AERO X Home page, and when you select them to program a credential.

Example:
Area: MyHotel
Sub-Areas: Floor 1, Floor 2, Floor 3, Utilities

Assigning Doors to Area and Sub-Area

When editing a Door, a dropdown list allows you to select the Area and Sub-Area the door belongs to.

Each door can be assigned to only one Area/Sub-Area combination.
