Gallagher Security releases Command Centre v9.40 – unlocking more doors, smarter maintenance, and future-ready architecture

Hamilton, New Zealand – Gallagher Security continues to deliver on its promise of future-ready innovation with the release of Command Centre v9.40, introducing powerful new capabilities for the Controller 7000 product range.

This release marks a significant leap forward for Gallagher’s award-winning site management platform, with enhanced scalability, performance, and proactive system management, reinforcing Gallagher’s commitment to supporting complex, high-density access control environments.

Mark Junge, Gallagher Security Chief Executive, says with Command Centre v9.40, Gallagher’s Controller 7000 product range, including the Standard, Enhanced, and High Security variants, now supports the optional licensing expansion of up to 24 doors per controller, more than doubling the previous limit of 10.

“This enhancement means larger installations can be managed with significant reductions in infrastructure costs and simplified system architecture,” says Mark.

“Importantly, even at full 24-door capacity, the Controller 7000 range maintains high performance and access responsiveness, even in the most demanding environments. 

“When we launched the C7000, we said it was the platform for the future. With v9.40, we’re delivering on that promise. This release is a direct response to our Channel Partner and End User’s need for greater flexibility and scalability – and it’s just the beginning.

“As part of Command Centre v9.40, we have boosted the number of HBUS readers supported, from 20 to 40, and increased OSDP readers from 16 to 32. V9.40 also increases the number of supported inter-controller communications from 60 to 100, allowing for larger and more complex controller networks without compromising performance or manageability,” says Mark.

Command Centre v9.40 also introduces Lock Cycle Counting, a new feature designed to support proactive maintenance strategies.

Gallagher Security Senior Product Manager, Jim Rayner says, “We know that when locks fail, they do it at the most inconvenient time - at the end of the day or afterhours. This results in costly callouts and expensive repairs. Proactively managing the life of a lock prevents these occurrences from happening, and ensures upgrades are proactive.”

Also available with v9.40 is Entra ID single sign on. The Command Centre integration with Microsoft Entra ID for single sign on, enables secure and seamless authentication using OpenID Connect.

Says Mark, “This integration allows customers to align with their organization's cloud-first identity strategy, reduce reliance on legacy AD infrastructure, and benefit from centralized access control, multi-factor authentication, and conditional access policies - all managed through Microsoft Entra. It simplifies user management, enhances security, and supports smoother migration to modern identity platforms.”

Command Centre v9.40 is available from 18 November 2025. For more information or to upgrade, contact your Gallagher representative or visit security.gallagher.com.
