Abloy UK at UK Security Expo 2017

Abloy UK is inviting visitors to stand L19 at the UK Security Expo 2017 to see access control technology and how compliant escape solutions can contribute to dynamic lockdown. The expo runs on November 29 and 30, 2017 at London’s Olympia Centre.

As Abloy says, access control alone really works if all elements of the solution work together including the basic door function, otherwise security and safety can be compromised especially if a non-compliant locking device is used.

Steve Wintle, Head of CNI at Abloy UK, will be leading a seminar on ‘Mitigating Risk using Innovation and Technology’, and visitors are invited to the Technology Workshop Theatre at 12.45pm on day one of the show, Wednesday, November 29 to hear about solutions to the challenges faced in achieving dynamic lockdown, and products available.

These include Abloy’s range of compliant locking solutions, including low energy electric locks, LPCB-rated padlocks, and its PROTEC2 CLIQ Connect system. As a cloud-hosted security management solution it allows for the remote management of diverse or large electronic master-keyed sites at any time, from anywhere.

The system provides audit trails on cylinders and padlocks, recording who used each key, where and when, with the ability to remove permissions for lost or stolen keys from the system, thereby providing secure key management at all times, the product company says.

The latest version of the system – CLIQ Connect – uses an encrypted online management system that uses Bluetooth 4.0, enabling users to update keys wirelessly from their smartphone.

Steve Wintle said: “The risk of terrorism is higher than ever before, with threats ranging from unsophisticated and random individuals to pre-meditated terrorist groups. The danger may be located directly at a premises and/or in the surrounding vicinity, so its vital areas can be zoned off to prevent the attackers from accessing them, and also stop people moving into zones that may be dangerous.

“Abloy has a range of different systems available that not only aid with dynamic lockdown, but also allow for easy egress in the event of a terror attack.”
