Fabricator Smart Glaze has become the latest company to offer the AK Touch Secure™ smart locking solution from Kenrick.
Neema at Smart Glaze said: “Smart Glaze is synonymous with innovative technology, which makes the AK Touch Secure™ an exciting addition to our offer.”
Andy Meakin, Sales and Marketing Manager at Kenrick, said: “Smart Glaze works with trade builders, renovators and property developers. The AK Touch Secure™ offers an innovative way for them to add value to their projects.”
Two particular features of the AK Touch Secure™ stood out for Smart Glaze. The first was the ease of fitting, especially retro-fitting.
The lock is compatible with any door handle or escutcheon fitted with a Kenrick 3 Star Locking Cylinder and can be fitted without any major hardware modifications.
Neema noted: “We installed the AK Touch Secure™ on an existing lever/pad door handle in our showroom. It was fitted and active in a matter of minutes, which was very impressive.”
The second feature is the restrictive entry facility, which is available via the AK Touch Secure™ app. Neema commented: “The feature is perfect for holiday rental owners or landlords who want to give contractors temporary and timed access to a property without someone needing to be present. For our target market, these are significant advantages.”
The AK Touch Secure™ means doors can be locked and unlocked using touch-sensitive technology, a secure keypad, an encrypted key fob, or voice commands via Google Home or Alexa. There’s also a manual override option, meaning the door can always be opened with a key.
As well as the restrictive entry facility, the AK Touch Secure™ app also gives users features such as remote locking and unlocking, a status check and access logs.
