Services
Switchlocks
Robust switchlocks provide restricted access to critical functions in EV charging units, machinery, and alarm panels. Features include reprogrammable key combinations and waterproof designs for durability in harsh environments. Advanced security mechanisms like radial pin technology balance flexibility with attack resistance.
Pushlocks
Spring-loaded pushlocks prevent lateral movement in sliding doors and enclosures. Available with patented Octagon mechanisms or traditional pin systems, these locks offer tamper-proof solutions for cabinets, street furniture, and gaming equipment with options for key-to-lock/unlock functionality.
Access Control
Wireless access control systems enable remote management through mobile apps and telemetry integration. Solutions include data logging, time-limited permissions, and compatibility with existing hardware to enhance security while reducing key management burdens.
Custom Solutions
In-house design teams develop tailored locking systems through 3D modeling and prototype testing. Services include product modifications, patent-protected mechanisms, and integration with OEM specifications to address unique security challenges across industries.
Cylinder Locks
Mid-to-high security cylinders use axial pin tumbler technology for manipulation resistance. Options include patent-registered key systems, cross-suitable designs, and attack-resistant brass/steel constructions for commercial and industrial applications.
