Camlock
System used
in fast food
kiosks
»»THE LOCKING EXPERTS,
Camlock Systems Ltd., is
proud of its long-standing
relationship with Evoke
Creative Ltd.
Recently, Evoke designed
and manufactured selforder kiosks for the world’s
largest chain of fast food
restaurants.
Camlock got involved at
an early stage and Evoke
chose the Series 31 cam
lock to secure the kiosks.
Evoke’s touchscreen
kiosks allow customers to
browse through the menu,
to order and to pay for their
food.
Camlock researched the
application of the lock and
where it would be used,
carefully analysing the
security risks the kiosks
will be exposed to. Evoke
required two locks for each
kiosk; one to protect the
door of the ticket printer that
gives easy access to the
printer roll, and another one
to protect the components
inside the kiosk.
During the consultation,
different types of locks,
security levels and prices
were considered. Camlock
Systems provided CAD
files and samples to enable
Evoke to test the lock.
Evoke decided on the
Series 31 die-cast 10-disc
tumbler cam lock. The keys
of this lock were ideal for
strength and heavy usage.
They are also able to offer
easy to insert due to their
double-entry design. A
master key solution was also
supplied.
Neil Clark, Commercial
Director at Evoke, says:
“Camlock’s expertise was
essential throughout the
entire process of finding a
suitable locking solution for
our kiosks, understanding
our requirements, during
the development process
as well as after the
installation.”
Security and Price
Stability in an
Uncertain Market
»»SINCE THE BREXIT
result in June, there
has been international
uncertainty concerning
the UK’s future trading
position. Uncertainty
brings speculation,
resulting in the dramatic
decline of the value of
the British pound against
both the euro and the U.S.
dollar.
The pounds decline
has already forced
many UK suppliers and
manufacturers dependent
on goods supplied
from Europe or China
to increase their prices,
often with a double digit
percentage.
Neither the UK hardware
and security market
in general or ABUS in
particular are immune from
these issues. ABUS UK is
reliant on supply of quality
products supplied in euros
from Germany, and in U.S.
dollars from the companies
factories in China.
LOCKSMITHJOURNAL.CO.UK | SEP/OCT 2016
While the current
British pound vs euros
and U.S. dollars is cutting
very deeply, ABUS and
its parent company, fully
support the ABUS brand in
the UK.
‘Uncertainty
brings speculation,
resulting in the
dramatic decline
of the value of the
British pound’
Therefore, with ABUS
Group support, ABUS UK
is pleased to confirm that
its 2016 pound RRPs will
remain in place till April
2017; 15 months after the
January 2016 RRPs were
confirmed.
