Mechanical locking systems are the foundation of organisational building security. A combination of electronically controlled security technology creates all-encompassing security solutions.
EPS keys can also be supplied as combination keys, which serve as devices carrying identification technology, such as Mifare, Legic and iButton. This transforms the mechanical key into an electronic identification medium.
Motorised cylinders can be integrated into an EPS locking system. These cylinders can be locked and unlocked using an electronically motorised knob.
Mechanical locking systems are very often used in combination with electronic access control units. This means that different types of door can be equipped with suitable security technology according to their required level of protection.
Due to the robustness and stability of mechanical locking systems, they are often required for use in emergency service buildings (e.g. fire brigade) as mechanical emergency locks (overlocks) for electronic systems.
