PROVIDE OPTIMUM WFH SECURITY WITH ASSA ABLOY CODE HANDLE
» 85 PERCENT OF EMPLOYEES currently working from home say they would favour a ‘ hybrid ’ working pattern in the future [ 1 ] – a clear indication that WFH is here to stay . Unsurprisingly , however , many domestic spaces that were repurposed into offices during the pandemic are not equipped to provide the security or privacy that a workplace demands .
Craig Birch , Head of Product Management at the ASSA ABLOY Door Hardware Group , comments : “ With many companies and employees having now turned to a hybrid working model , it is clear that working from home is here for the long term – but it is vital that security is improved alongside this , especially for those employed in sensitive industries . After all , not every houseguest should be reading confidential company data that has been left lying around on a desk .
“ This is where Code Handle comes in . It provides an elegant and convenient way to put an effective barrier between the work environment and the rest of
the home – ensuring that confidential documents are as secure as they would be in a purpose-built office .”
A sleek and stylish handle with a built-in PIN-pad , Code Handle offers a convenient access control solution for those that need to keep home offices private . Access is granted to authorised individuals via a four- to six-digit code on the handle ’ s keypad , and the device automatically locks when a door closes for added security and peace of mind .
Unlike other costly access control systems , Code Handle can be quickly and easily installed or retrofitted . It is battery-powered and so requires no expensive wiring . Users can keep the current cylinder or lock and upgrade almost any interior door to Code Handle by simply securing it in place with two screws , making it easy for non-specialists .
“ The security and ease of use of Code Handle has led to it being trusted within medical surgeries , retail stockrooms , flexible workspaces and almost anywhere else a private door meets a public space ,” says Craig . “ It is perfectly adapted for upgrading a home study , basement , loft or spare room into an office , as it provides optimum security without the hassle of keys or an unsightly push-button device .”
