Foundation of your property’s security 

High-quality locks have been manufactured and installed in Finland for more than 100 years. Even the best locking systems require regular maintenance and updating. Even if an old lock still works, the level of key security can deteriorate significantly over the years. Keys are lost, more keys are made and the knowledge of key holders deteriorates. This is always a security risk. 

Mechanical locking systems will continue to function and be cost-effective as long as key security is in order and key patents remain valid. If the patent of the key system has expired, keys can be ordered anywhere without the ability to control the number of keys or their holders. This is the reason for the increasing popularity of electromechanical and programmable systems over the last 20 years. In addition to mechanical security, these systems also offer digital security, which means that locks and keys can be reprogrammed without having to replace locks. 

Our product range is among the most extensive on the market and offers solutions suitable for locations ranging from summer cottages to shopping centres.

Locking as a service 

Our advanced service enables housing companies and properties to renew and maintain their locking systems as a monthly service. 

Content of the service: 

 

  • Updating an existing locking system
  • Preventive maintenance service and periodic maintenance of locks in communal areas
  • Fault repairs and devices during normal working hours
  • Storage of the key folder in a classified space

The locking system should always be renewed when keys are lost or at least every 10—15 years. This helps manage the risk of lost keys and an outdated locking system and improves security.

Frequently asked questions about locking solutions

What are the differences between a mechanical and a digital locking system?

A mechanical locking system is based on traditional keys, while a digital locking system uses electronic credentials and allows access rights to be managed remotely. A digital system is more flexible and quicker to update, making it cost-effective in the long term.

Who are smart locking solutions the most suitable for?

Smart locking solutions are suitable for companies, properties and housing companies that require flexible access control. They enable keyless access, real-time changes to access rights and integration with other systems such as access control and surveillance cameras.

How is the cost of a locking solution determined?

The costs depend on your chosen solution and service level. While mechanical locking is often cheaper to purchase, a digital locking system offers savings in maintenance and access management. A fixed maintenance agreement makes costs predictable.
