Physical Security

First time at housing exhibition

by Mark Rowe

ASSA, part of ASSA ABLOY Security Solutions, a UK division of ASSA ABLOY, the physical security product company, will be demonstrating its CLIQ Remote range for void properties at the National Housing Federation’s Annual Conference and Housing Exhibition.

The long running exhibition will run on September 21 and 22, at the ICC in Birmingham. ASSA, on stand 42, will be showcasing its CLIQ range for the first time at the housing show.

Its intelligent key and cylinder solution, CLIQ Remote, has recently been in use in the social housing market, notably in the securing of void properties. The system allows controlled key and access management without the complexity or cost of a hard wired system, the makers say. The CLIQ range has the functionality to create time defined user keys, allowing access for a specified time; outside of these time parameters access would be denied to the properties. This feature is useful for maintenance workers who may need to access properties outside normal opening hours.

Simon Wilson, National Sales Manager – CLIQ Remote, at ASSA ABLOY Security Solutions, said: “CLIQ Remote is a solution currently being used on social housing developments to improve security and protect empty buildings’ assets, whilst using budgets more efficiently. One such case has seen a time saving of approximately 40 hours per week and eliminating the need for shared keys. Crimes against empty properties are on the increase, partly due the rising value of metal and thefts of fixtures and fittings.

“The management of keys for access is not only time consuming, but also labour intensive and the associated costs can become very high. CLIQ Remote enables easy key management and helps alleviate these high associated costs, whilst delivering a 100 per cent key controlled environment. Improving security on a void property also helps keep the neighbouring environment in good condition – meaning happy and healthy neighbourhoods. We look forward to meeting the 2,000 plus housing professionals at this year’s show and hope to demonstrate the advantages that CLIQ Remote can bring to their properties.”
