The safety and security product manufacturer, Allegion, has moved the offices of its UK operation to Aston. The multi-national PLC was based in Walsall, West Midlands, has now moved to new and modern premises in Birmingham. The relocation has been in response to its growth through numerous acquisitions within the last two years, the firm says.
Allegion products cover markets including education, healthcare, hospitality, commercial and residential. Their product range focuses on security around the doorway and beyond, the company says: everything from residential and commercial locks, door closers and exit devices, to electronic access control.
The premises will feature a new ‘Security and Safety Learning Centre’ designed to showcase its market solutions and electromechanical product packages. Allegion partners will be able to learn best practice from ‘in-house’ staff in choosing door hardware and electronic access control solutions for their application, and ensure it is fitted and maintained correctly. The Learning Centre will also host a photo booth which will allow 360–degree photography, allowing a complete view of products from all angles.
Suzanne Taylor, Marketing, Communications & Brand Leader EMEIA (UK, MEA & Turkey) at Allegion says: “This is an incredibly exciting time for the business. The dynamic and modern space lends itself to a more collaborative and innovative culture which will only enhance our service and customer experience.”
