Product Innovation
and Connections
Combine at FIT Show
ERA will be using the 2019 FIT
Show (stand L30) to demonstrate
how it continues to drive the
innovation that underpins
home security.
» » VISITORS TO THE SHOW WILL BE ABLE
to see the company’s full range of hardware
and smartware products, including new
product developments, all backed up
by practical advice and wider customer
support to help fabricators and installers
grow their business. There will also be
an opportunity to find out about how to
sign up to a new installer scheme just
introduced by ERA.
One of the key areas of the stand will
be used to showcase ERA’s smartware
solutions including the HomeGuard Pro
alarm, a high specification cloud-based
alert and monitoring alarm system, the
first of its kind to combine security with
smart living. Using a smartphone app, the
HomeGuard Pro offers real time alerts,
the ability to protect multiple locations,
such as a house, office or holiday home,
all accessible literally anytime, anywhere.
Likewise, ERA’s WiFi video doorbell,
DoorCam, allows homeowners to view
all callers and talk to them in real time,
whether they are home or not. With ease
of operation in mind, once DoorCam is
wired in, the householder can simply plug
in the WiFi chime which comes as standard,
connecting up to four more chimes in the
home, all as part of the package. This
means a chime will sound in the house,
with adjustable sound, volume and light
function, eliminating the need to carry a
Smartphone around. Both HomeGuard Pro
and DoorCam will be demonstrated on the
stand, and visitors will also be given the
chance to try them out for themselves and
learn how to install them with ease.
Elsewhere on the stand visitors will be
able to see in operation ERA’s TouchKey,
a keyless smart lock bringing to life a
fully integrated suite of connected Smart
Security Products. Working in combination
52 MAY 2019
with ERA’s SureFire lock, the TouchKey also
offers a solution for multi-point locks on
PVCu and Composite doors. Developed to
be secure and simple to use and easy to
fit, SUREFIRE delivers effortless multi-point
locking: simply close the door to engage
the trigger and turn a key to deadlock.
No FIT Show would be complete without
ERA’s extraordinarily broad range of
Fab&Fix decorative hardware. The brand
celebrates over thirty years of heritage.
With three decades of real world testing
and featuring truly matching products, it
is no wonder that the brand has forged
a durable loyalty with many fabricators,
installers and their suppliers. With over 200
window and door products in the range,
and up to ten different finishes, Fab&Fix
is perfectly suited down to the last screw
and offers unparalleled flexibility. This lack
of restriction in suited style colour and
breadth of range is unique in the market.
The industry-renowned ‘Hardex’ surface
finish technology is only available on the
Fab&Fix range.
The show will also afford fabricators and
installers a chance to check out ERA’s 3*
BS Kitemarked Invincible Double cylinder,
which offers them great opportunities
for differentiating themselves from their
competitors, thanks to its unique features
and benefits. The cylinder, which has
five times the strength of conventional
options, is now available with a great range
of matching ERA compatible handles,
escutcheons and furniture.
The strength of the cylinder means it
offers maximum protection against attack.
In the face of bumping, lock-picking and
drilling it simply will not snap, thereby
providing an effective and secure solution.
The Invincible Door Security system can
withstand over 15 minutes of sustained
attack without the use of a sacrificial
section - so when the intruder has given up
and gone the key can still be used to open
the door. The Kitemark™ logo stamped on
the face of the cylinder provides assurance
to the end-user that the 3* Invincible
Cylinder meets BSI requirements, and
also acts as a visual deterrent to potential
intruders due to the unique, sturdy shape of
the cylinder.
