MLA EXPO PREVIEW
Squire launches smart
electronic security
at MLA Expo
» » THE NAME BEHIND THE WORLD’S
strongest production padlock will launch
its new generation of Bluetooth key
security for padlocks and cylinders
on Stand H1.33 at MLA Expo 2019.
Security specialist Squire is presenting
its new range of high security electronic
technology padlocks, cylinders and
locksets being marketed under the
company’s Inigma brand, Squire’s new
digital security system.
Designed and engineered by
Squire, Inigma electronic technology
takes lock security to the highest
level. The advanced Inigma system
provides convenient, secure access
control for remote locations, from
just one user to thousands of users
- for offices, substations, mobile
and modular buildings, data storage
cabinets, electricity panels and student
accommodation to healthcare facilities
and medical cabinets. It enables users
to control access from a smartphone
via the Inigma app, and what makes it
stand out is that just one system can
control multiple cylinders and padlocks.
Using Bluetooth BLE communication, the
Inigma wireless access control system
works by connecting the smart locks to
a secure cloud server via a clever, smart
key.
Just one key can open over 10,000
locks, and it can record over 10,000 locks
visited. Lost or stolen smart keys can
be blacklisted or deleted, and there is a
multi-function LED (green, red, orange)
with low charge indicator. The key works
in tandem with a smartphone to provide
near-real-time functionality, including key
re-validation and permission changes, all
co-ordinated from the Inigma app. And
the key is rechargeable, it only needs to
be recharged every three to four months
based on normal use.
Features of the Inigma system - which
is Android and Apple IOS compatible
- include ultra-secure end-to-end AES
34
256-bit, an easy-to-use
interface and extremely
flexible scheduling
and grouping, enabling
the implementation of complex
security schemes. It also provides a
comprehensive audit trail of locks visited,
enables access to be given or revoked
easily, and it supports online and remote
programming.
User-friendly and easy to use, all
the owner needs is the smart key and
smartphone. Low cost and easy to
install, it requires no hard wiring or
expensive authorisers.
Inigma is available across a range of
Squire products including euro cylinders
and Squire’s formidable high security
Stronghold® range of padlocks, the
HLS50 high security lockset and Marine
range.
Inigma security cylinders are
available as double Euro profile and Kik
cylinders, they are rechargeable using
a USB connection and feature a low
warning indicator light on the key. The
electronics are located on the inside of
the door for extra protection.
Features of the Inigma Stronghold®
padlock range, which comes in many
sizes and shackle variants, include
solid hardened steel lock body,
electrophoretic anti-corrosion finish,
hardened boron alloy steel shackle,
anti-drill protection and high corrosion
resistance for harsh environments. The
integration with Stronghold® brings
added reassurance that the padlocks
themselves have been tested in-house,
as proof they can withstand the harshest
of attack.
Plus, most of the extra high security
Stronghold® range has the added benefit
of being CEN tested and approved.
Squire will also show its mechanical
LPCB approved Stronghold® padlock
range, which is testament to the
company’s reputation for long lasting
toughness. Today, Squire is recognised
for some of the technologically
advanced products in lock making,
such as the new ultra-high security
SS100 padlock, designed as the world’s
strongest production padlock. This
outstanding dual cylinder padlock is
100mm wide and is the only padlock
ever to achieve LPCB SR4 rating (not as
a set).
Available as open and closed shackle
versions, the SS100CS features a mega
4.3kg solid steel lock body which is
capable of a tensile pull of over 24
tonnes, equivalent to the weight of four
African elephants. It is ideal for perimeter
gates, warehouses, outbuildings,
commercial vehicles, shipping containers
and heavy machinery.
The Squire name has been at the
forefront of lock making since 1780,
with a great British history carried down
through eight generations, unrivalled
in its experience. Squire manufactures
some of the most advanced lock
designs on the market for home,
commercial and mobile security -
cylinders, padlocks, combination locks,
multi-purpose lock and chain sets,
security cables, bolts, hasps and staples,
and security accessories.
And its range of top security products
are tested to global security and fire
safety standards to ensure the finest
tolerances, reliability and outstanding
performance.
