An overview of ARRONE ’ s padlock offering
» GLEN BUTLER , SALES Centre Manager at HOPPE UK , gives a comprehensive overview of the key things that locksmiths need to know about ARRONE padlocks .
ARRONE was established in the UK in 1988 and , as a HOPPE brand , benefits from HOPPE ’ s 40 years of experience in the door and window hardware industry . Building on this industry knowledge and insight , ARRONE launched two padlock series - the AR85 and the AR90 / 54 - to offer locksmiths a wider range of styles and functionality .
Brass padlocks
The range contains three different size brass padlocks – 30mm , 40mm and 50mm – all with hardened steel shackles . Brass padlocks are resistant to rust making them suitable for high moisture applications and outdoor use . With such versatile applications , brass padlocks are a popular choice for both domestic and commercial use at a cost-effective price point .
The padlocks are available with two different keying options : keyed to differ or keyed alike . Padlocks that are keyed to differ can only be opened by the keys supplied in the box . Keyed alike is ideal for users that need to use several padlocks but doesn ’ t want to have multiple keys . Rather than having to switch keys to open each padlock , this keying method allows a single key to be used , saving time and reducing the risk of lost keys .
Fingerprint padlocks
For those who are looking for a digital option without complex functionality , there is also the AR90 / 54 padlock series . This padlock can be unlocked using just a fingerprint and respond to recognised prints in less than a second .
The Zinc housing and steel alloy shackle provide enhanced tamper and corrosion resistance . The padlock can be used indoors and outdoors , making it suitable for securing lockers , sheds and bicycles . With a long-lasting , rechargeable battery , the FingerScan Padlock can be used for up to 200 days from a single charge and uses a standard USB power cable to recharge .
