Allegion (formerly Ingersoll Rand Security Technologies), will be demonstrating its range of Electronic Access Control (EAC) systems at IFSEC International from Tuesday to Thursday June 17 to 19, at the ExCeL in London. At the three day event, Allegion will be demonstrating products from its Schlage range of biometric security products.
The Handkey II will be among the products on stand – an access control reader which uses hand geometry technology to map and verify the size and shape of a hand in less than one second the firm says. Each Handkey II can be used as a stand-alone security solution or it can form part of networked system. It offers door control, providing door lock operation, request for exit, and alarm monitoring. A version is also available to use for time and attendance purposes to link into HR and workforce productivity systems.
The stand will also feature the latest TBS 3D touchless finger scanner, which can reconstruct the three-dimensional features of the human finger by capturing the finger geometry, ridge and valley detail at resolutions up to 1000 dpi.
Visitors can also take a closer look at the latest models in the PegaSys wireless intelligent access product from Allegion. PegaSys offers a choice of electronic and mechanical entry components, based on RFID technology, and it provides a way to upgrade traditional mechanical doors to a fully electronically-controlled access system.
Allegion aptiQ multi technology readers will also be showcased. Using an open architecture design, the readers are capable of interfacing with most systems and accommodate most manufacturers’ proximity cards. They are also compliant with Near Field Communication (NFC), ensuring users are able to migrate to mobile credentials. The aptiQ reader allows mutually encrypted communication between the card, reader and diversified keys, which protect data integrity and prevent unauthorised access. And as an added benefit, aptiQ contactless smart credentials come with a variety of data storage options and highly impressive data transfer rates.
Paul Taylor at Allegion said: “IFSEC has undoubtedly become a must-attend event for the security industry and, as a world leader in access control, Allegion (UK) Ltd has been gearing up to showcase an exclusive selection of products from its key Electronic Access Control brands at this year’s exhibition. With the likes of PegaSys, aptiQTM and Schlage, as well as its Briton and CISA ranges of mechanical hardware products, Allegion is uniquely positioned to supply mechanical, electro-mechanical and electronic security solutions from cutting-edge biometrics, through to networked and stand-alone electronic access control systems and mechanical locks and cylinders. The team is looking forward to being on stand at IFSEC and making the most of this prime opportunity to demonstrate this comprehensive range of products.”
