Digital locks are becoming an increasingly popular method of restricting entry. A major contributing factor is that there are no keys to worry about.

Finding the right equipment and installing it at the right price requires familiarity with many different products and manufacturers. A non exhaustive list of brands we have worked with is:

Electronic keypads This is the solution for heavy indoor and outdoor use, or where looks really matter.We can supply and fit a range of electronic keypads to suit your budget, with a choice of locking device. It's very easy to set and change codes.

Swipe cards and key fob systems An ultra-secure system that is already used by most banks, hospitals and government offices. Add a computer link and you will be able to monitor exactly who entered, when and through which entrance. These systems can be tailored precisely to match your own needs.

The Unican 1000 This substantial mechanical digital lock is designed for heavy duty traffic. Easily installed by our engineers, it features a strong locking device and easy-to-change code setting.

The Unican 7000 The Unican 7000 is ideal for low to medium indoor use. It can be fitted to any wooden multi-use door and is commonly used for conference and storage rooms, cash offices and similar locations. The entry code is very simple to set and change.

Lockey locks These are ideal for low to medium indoor use. Its smart appearance and easy operation make this a success wherever there's a need to restrict casual entry.

LOCKING DEVICES ^

Magnet locks Door-locking magnets are, defying intuition, incredibly hard to force open. Without much noise and without any easily worn-out moving parts, they are in all a very secure locking device. A magnet will only lock if it is 'powered-up', i.e. if current runs through it. Should the power supply be disrupted, a magnet can continue to operate if fitted with a back-up battery.

Electric releases Electric releases are the most widely used way of electronically giving access to a door. Generally, a mechanical lock simply locates into a release fixed onto the door frame. Via, for example, a keypad code or an intercom handset, the release flap can be made to let go of the lock, so as to allow the door to be opened. Generally, electric releases are considered a means of access control, but less burglar resistant.

Other electrical locking devices The bestseller in this category is the Cisa electric lock, often used to work on communal or main entrance doors with intercom systems, where that extra bit of security is required. The lock is also seen on gates and all sorts of commercial applications.

The solenoid bolt (left), or the Abloy motor lock for double-action doors are just two examples of the multitude of products available at the high end of the market.
