PLUG AND PLAY KEY PERFECT FOR SMES
» » TRAKA 21, THE INNOVATIVE PLUG-
and-play key management solution for
small and medium-sized businesses,
is now offered by ASSA ABLOY Access
Control, a UK division of ASSA ABLOY, the
global leader in door opening solutions.
Designed to provide a simple, efficient
and affordable system to help users
manage their keys, Traka 21 ensures
organisations can trace business assets
at all times. The system individually locks
every single key or keyset stored in the
system in place, to help ensure business
operations are never jeopardised.
Claire Jones, Business Development
Executive at ASSA ABLOY Access Control,
explains: “While the technology for
commercial security continues to be
increasingly sophisticated, managing
critical keys remains a challenge for many
businesses. At best, these will be issued
from a security desk. At worst, these will
be hung from a hook in plain sight. Should
these critical keys become lost or fall into
the wrong hands, this could pose a huge
security risk.The premise behind Traka
21 is to help ensure the right keys are
available for the right people at the right
times. A state-of-the-art key management
system, Traka 21 is a standalone system
that authorises, secures and monitors
all of your keys, while also controlling
and recording when a key is used and by
whom.
“To operate the system, users simply
have to enter their unique PIN code
to access the cabinet. With all keys
and keysets individually locked by the
Traka 21 unit, those that the user has
permission to use will be indicated with
a green LED, while those lit by a red
LED are unavailable. When returning
keys to the system, an amber light will
indicate which position a key should be
returned to. For small to medium-sized
businesses seeking an intelligent but
easy-to-use key management system,
Traka 21 offers an effective solution.”
The key management system allows
users to trace and manage up to 21
keys or keysets, with access to keys
granted via a secure PIN. By controlling
and recording whenever a key is used,
security risks are minimised and a
business can trace who has accessed a
key at any given moment. This record
can then be viewed on the cabinet’s
display, or can be exported via a USB
pen drive.
Security Hat-trick With Third
Secured by Design Award
» » LOXAL SECURITY HAS BEEN
awarded a third ‘Secured by Design’
stamp of approval for its innovative Face
Fix Key Safe. All three of the products
feature Loxal’s unique IDACS (Intelligent
Digital Access Control System)
software.
The IDACS Face Fix Key Safe is the
ideal solution for temporary on-site
key management and access control,
Comments David White, Managing
Director of Loxal Security: “It is fantastic
news that our Face Fix Key Safe has
been recognised with a Secured by
Design Award, the third of our products
to achieve this.
“The common thread through all of
our products, is our IDACS software,
which sits behind all of our digital access
solutions, controlling the interface on
which end users can enter their personal
access code to gain entry or exit to sites
or premises.”
The Face Fix Key Safe can be
installed in a number of unique ways, it
can be installed traditionally into solid
substrates, through a entrance door
viewer/spy hole or most conveniently
of all with the S-Trap fitting. The S-Trap
sits on the hinge side of the door and is
locked securely in place when the door
is closed.
The S-Trap uses an ultra-strong flexible
webbing strap, so it can be installed on
all door types including PVC and fire
doors. In the event of fire, the sacrificial
strap will burn off meaning the key safe
does not interfere with the integrity of
the fire door.
The Face Fix Key Safe joins Loxal’s
other ‘Secured by Design’ key safes,
lock boxes and gate locks to provide
