ASSA ABLOY PRESERVING BRITISH
CANALS AND RIVERS
ASSA ABLOY Security
Solutions has supplied
products to the Canal &
River Trust, which takes
care of 2,000 miles of
waterways in England and
Wales.
The charity is responsible
for maintaining canals and
rivers that are often over
200 years old, as well as
protecting the network of
bridges, embankments,
towpaths, aqueducts, docks
and reservoirs.
Lincoln Security specified
UNION and ASSA products,
to be fitted throughout pump
houses, front gates and
meeting rooms, to provide
controlled access to the
facilities across England
and Wales, ensuring that
the canals and rivers are
open and safe for visitors to
enjoy.
UNION’s euro-profile
StrongBOLTTM lock case was
supplied, which is ideal for
first or retrofit installation,
as its design eliminates the
need for tooling to avoid
spoiling the aesthetics of
doors. UNION has a range
of StrongBOLTTM products
including Euro and Oval
profile cylinders lock cases
that could be suited across
the entire installation.

ASSA’s Twin Combi 5800
cylinders were also installed
to provide high security and
resistance to any known
method of picking, the
cylinder also allows for
master key systems to be
integrated for continuity of
key management. ASSA’s
3088 deadlock was also
supplied and connected to
the intruder alarm, to allow
the system to be set when
the key triggers the switch.
Sean Falkinder, Sales
Development Manager
at Lincoln Security, said:
“Some of the Trust’s
buildings are listed, so
we had to come up with
a solution to allow the
entrances to be on the new
masterkey system, without
unnecessary mortising to
the precious doors. So, we
designed surface fitting
housings to accept UNION’s
horizontal cases and the
ASSA cylinder, so any marks
left on the door would be
covered.”
Paul Johnson, Commercial
Manager for ASSA ABLOY
Security Solutions, said:
“Canals and rivers are a
national asset of intrinsic
value, reflecting Britain’s
emergence as the first
industrial nation. So it
is fitting that UNION, a
heritage brand that still
manufactures in the UK,
has been able to provide a
solution to help protect and
conserve Britain’s waterways
for future generations to
enjoy.”
