Traka 21 from Mul-T-Lock

Mul-T-Lock UK now offers the Traka21, stand-alone key management system. Traka21 combines innovative RFID technology and robust design for locksmiths to offer small and medium sized businesses intelligent management of up to 21 keys or keysets in an affordable plug and play unit.

Traka21 authorises, secures and monitors all keys, automatically controlling and recording when a key is used and by whom - information which is made available either through the cabinet's display or by exporting on a USB pen drive.

Easy to operate, the user can simply enter a unique PIN code to gain access to the cabinet, with green LEDs indicating those keys to which this user has access. The user cannot remove keys highlighted by the red LEDs, which continue to remain locked in place.

To return the key, the user enters their PIN to access the cabinet again, and an amber light indicates the return position. Simple reports can be reviewed on the screen, and exported data such as audit trails can be viewed and manipulated on a computer using Excel or similar.

Kevin Menzies, Sales Manager for Mul-T-Lock UK, said: "Although commercial security is becoming increasingly sophisticated, there is still a lack of management when it comes to business critical keys.

"In some cases keys are often left in open view or unsecure locations, meaning they can easily get lost or taken by unauthorised persons. This creates the risk of losing security of access to buildings, facilities, secure areas, equipment, machinery, lockers, cabinets and vehicles.

"Traka21's market-leading, innovative plug and play system is a simple, efficient and cost-effective solution for locksmiths to offer, helping trace and account for every key or keyset, to ensure security is not jeopardised."
