and access solutions manufacturer, Mul-T-
Lock took home one of the most coveted
awards at the inaugural National Locksmith
Awards this month, for Product of the Year.
The National Locksmith Awards (NLA)
is the UK’s most complete industry awards

rewarding them for all the hard work that
so often goes unnoticed.
Mul-T-Lock was victorious in the Product
of the Year category and was also awarded
as runner up in the Keyless Entry Company
of the Year category,
due to its innovative
eCLIQ technology – the
advanced system which
allows organisations to
both grant and remove
access permissions
remotely.
eCLIQ technology
offers a cost-effective and easy way to assign
new access rights, no matter how many
times they need changing. More durable,
more secure and more efficient than

Welcomes
Derrick Purvis
Steve Stewart and Nick Dutton, CEO’s
of Brisant-Secure, are delighted to
welcome Derrick Purvis to the team.
» DERRICK HAS TWENTY
years in marketing and
product management roles;
fifteen with Avocet Hardware,
and has worked with high
profile clients, managing
projects for the likes of B&Q,
Wickes and Homebase. His
experience with product
development, marketing,
promotions, launches and
brand development are all
skills that Brisant-Secure will
welcome into the team.
Derrick said, “One of the
main things that attracted me
to Brisant is that they strive
to produce products that
make them stand out from the
crowd and provide the tools
their customers need to help
them sell more. In an industry
that often looks to produce
hardware that just meet the
standards, Brisant looks to
exceed and set new standards.
I have been seriously
impressed with the rise of
the Ultion lock brand which
positions itself as a market
leader. And I also expect the
2020 Sweet hardware range
will soon follow the same
path.”

and compact electronic locking cylinder
together provide higher security.
