Barnsley based trade fabricator, Euroglaze, is now offering its complete range of composite doors with a new Smart Door option using ABS’ Black Xlock keyless cylinder system.

The system can be fitted on doors with a lever handle, escutcheon or pull bar and is available in six different finishes including black, white, brass, chrome and nickel to suit the style and colour of any panel.

The ABS Black Xlock uses keyless technology to allow users to lock, unlock and monitor the status of their door using either their phone, an xKey fob, XPad keybad, Wi-Fi bridge or NFC tag.

According to Euroglaze, the Black Xlock is ideal for homeowners and landlords because it allows users to either share the app directly with family, friends and trusted visitors, create temporary or limited access codes for anyone who needs to enter their property, or lock and unlock remotely.

Users get notifications about who has unlocked the door and, when they pair the app with a Wi-Fi bridge, they can control the Black Xlock from anywhere in the world.

Nicky Park, Euroglaze’s senior business development associate, commented:

“The Black Xlock is a simple and cost effective upgrade for our trade customers and gives them lots of opportunities to upsell their installations and increase their margins.

“It has all the physical and digital security protections required, with both facial and fingerprint recognition and full 128-bit AES encryption. And, for complete reassurance, it even comes with two traditional cut keys which can be used in an emergency.”

She added:

“Euroglaze may be Rehau’s longest serving UK fabricator with a distinguished 45 year heritage, but our success has always based on always looking forward and not back. Whether it’s introducing cutting-edge Smart Door systems like the Black Xlock keyless cylinder, pioneering advanced manufacturing techniques, or developing bespoke digital tools for efficient ordering and stock management, we have consistently led the way in technological innovation within our industry.

“Our team are highly trained and extremely knowledgeable, and can give specialist advice on these new products or on any of our service and support tools on the phone, online or in person.”
