Pat Jefferies, Commercial Director at Abloy UK, is presenting the seminar, and is retained by BSI and CEN as the UK’s Electric Locking Technical Expert. He will also cover implementing the requirements of the ‘Construction Products Directive’ applicable throughout Europe within the seminar. Pat commented: “If you or your business supply, specify, or install access control locking or blocking as part of a security system, you cannot afford to miss this seminar. I’ll be explaining the minimum performance criteria, and the implications of getting the specification wrong.” ISEC 2017 is a free event - Taking place on the 26th & 27th of April 2017 in the Conference Centre, Citywest, Dublin. www.isec.ie LOOKING TO THE FUTURE » » YALE’S CONNECTED smart locks are now fully compatible with RISCO smart home systems, making traditional keys a thing of the past.
