Two of Allegion’s smart technology brands are joining the Schlage access control product label. Allegion says the merger is to offer unified solutions to their customers for products using proximity, smart and biometrics technologies.
The two brands, aptiQ and XceedID, will have their logo and branding changed to Schlage. The 90-year-old Schlage range covers homes, multi-family properties, commercial and institutional buildings.
Jeff Bennett, Allegion’s Commercial Leader for the Middle East, Africa and Turkey, pictured, said: “Schlage has been securing buildings for many decades, by pioneering in both scalable and smart solutions. Our products can range from complex masterkey systems for the largest airports to smart electronic locks which work with the latest smart phone technologies. Allegion is now bringing together electronics locks, hand geometry readers, smart card readers and credentials all under the Schlage brand.”
aptiQ’s product range is mainly in smart technology, specialising in multi-technology readers and credentials. The readers are able to recognise magnetic stripe, proximity cards, smart cards and mobile credentials.
XceedID offers access control readers and credentials that can be integrated into legacy systems. Visit: http:/us.allegion.com/en/home/products/brands/schlage.html.
