Assa Abloy unveils new suite of Ecliq key options

London, UK

All three new Ecliq programmable keys are IP67-rated with a long battery life

Assa Abloy has released a powerful new suite of programmable Ecliq keys, designed to provide even more robust, longer-lasting performance. An IP67 rating against water and dust ensures new Ecliq Basic, Ecliq Professional and Ecliq Connect keys can handle any weather.

Connect keys can handle any weather. Durability is ensured with up to a 10-year lifetime from a single, standard battery for the Basic and Professional keys. All three new keys are compatible with new and existing Ecliq wireless access control systems — and can be used alongside existing Ecliq keys.

By deploying new Ecliq keys, facility managers gain the flexibility to operate access control exactly how they choose. Both Ecliq Basic and Ecliq Professional keys can be updated at the desktop, via wall readers or with mobile programmer. The Professional key adds acoustic feedback to the Ecliq Basic’s LED key feedback.

A third new member of the family, the new Ecliq Connect key will be released soon and may also be paired with a smartphone app to update access rights from anywhere. A security administrator simply updates the system; the keyholder transmits new access permissions from phone to key via an encrypted Bluetooth connection. A key battery typically lasts two years or up to 2,000 connections.

More than just simple and convenient, an Ecliq Connect Key also saves time, money and fuel wasted on unnecessary journeys to update a credential. In this way, issuing contractors and mobile workers with Ecliq Connect keys can help businesses to reduce their environmental footprint as part of an overall sustainability strategy.

Powerful, flexible, wireless, key-based electronic access control

A fully electronic extension of Assa Abloy’s award-winning Cliq access control system, Ecliq is built around precision-engineered wireless locks and high-end microelectronics. A standard battery inside each programmable electronic key powers the Ecliq cylinder or padlock — and encrypts data transfer between lock, key and system.

The Ecliq cylinder range brings almost any opening into an access control system. Robust, durable Ecliq locks can secure lifts, machines, mailboxes, cabinets and more, with the same control as sensitive doors. Available in multiple sizes and formats — Ecliq cylinders help maintain security across an organisation.

Managing Ecliq is fast and flexible. Existing keys are programmed with the same easy-to-use software and hardware as the three new Ecliq keys. Security managers have a choice between a local software installation (Cliq Local Manager) or cloud-based Cliq Web Manager.

Because Ecliq keys are powered by standard batteries, they can extend powerful electronic access control anywhere — far beyond the reach of electric cabling. Cylinders and padlocks operate safely between –25°C and 85°C, indoors and outdoors, in almost any environment, however harsh.
