Kenricks has announced that Silent View Windows has become the latest launch partner for its AK Touch Secure smart door lock.
According to a company statement, the AK Touch Secure has been designed to “revolutionise” door security and offers “a seamless blend of smart technology and high-quality security credentials”. It is compatible with any door handle fitted with a Kenrick 3 Star Locking Cylinder.
Rose Evlat, marketing executive at Silent View Windows, said: “One of the most exciting features of this smart lock is its ability to be retrofitted onto existing doors. This opens up a whole new market opportunity for homeowners who want to upgrade their security without replacing their entire door. It’s a game-changer in terms of added value, convenience and ease of installation.”
The AK Touch Secure operates using touch-sensitive technology, a secure keypad, encrypted key fob, or voice commands via Google Home or Alexa. There’s also a manual override option, meaning the door can always be opened with a key.
Using the AK Touch Secure app, users gain features such as remote locking and unlocking, a status check and access logs. They can also give temporary, timed access, making it invaluable for Airbnb properties or where contractors need access to a building.
Andy Laird, area sales manager at Kenricks, added: “AK Touch Secure reflects our commitment to offering advanced hardware solutions that meet the evolving needs of today’s fast-moving market. We are delighted to have Silent View Windows on board and confident of the new opportunities it will deliver for the business.”
Rose said: “As a business, we pride ourselves on being at the cutting edge of market trends. The introduction of AK Touch Secure will further enhance our commitment to delivering the highest standards of security and technology to our customers.”
