Seen for the first time at the Essen Security trade show in Germany, the new Storm-AXS S60 Keypad-reader will be featured on the Storm-Interface stand.
This access control keypad has been developed for use in exposed outdoor locations, where typically there is limited space available for installation of a keypad-reader. Restricted installation space is often a problem in buildings with glass, or polished stone exterior walls where installation into the door frame is the only practical option, says Storm. These installations require a keypad-reader with a narrow, vertically oriented format.
The challenge; to achieve this narrow format without compromising mandated accessibility requirements or compliance with the new UL294 standard. The keypads also feature HID iCLASS contactless reader technology providing dual technology authentication and elevated levels of security, the product company adds. As the latest addition to the Storm-AXS range of weather resistant and toughened access control devices, the S60 will be offered by Storm’s distribution partner ADI Global Distribution, in the UK, Germany and emerging European territories. Planned are social media and targeted email campaigns and a poster campaign in ADI Global Distribution sales centres.
Joseph Davies of ADI Global Distribution said: “Increasing demand for frame mounted keypad-readers is emerging as expensive glass and other high-tech finishes are specified by architects and their clients. ADI Global Distribution are committed to meeting the specific requirements of architects and other system designers.”
