Company to showcase PROTEC2 CLIQ™ Connect mobile app, Super Weather Proof padlock

Irving, TX – November 11, 2019 – Security administrators looking for high security locking solutions designed to meet the rising demands of the Critical Infrastructure market will find what they need in the ABLOY USA booth (#2124) at ISC East. ABLOY will showcase the PROTEC2 CLIQ Connect mobile app and PROTEC2 Super Weather Proof (SWP) padlock at the November 20-21 event, taking place at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center in New York City.

”These two solutions were well received at the GSX Show in Chicago two months ago. Many of the people who visited our booth said both exceeded their expectations,” remarked Jerry Burhans, Managing Director of ABLOY USA.

”PROTEC2 CLIQ Connect and the SWP padlock are the type of solutions that will redefine physical access for secured properties. Many people who attend ISC East were not at GSX and the Javits Center is a great venue. We think it is the perfect opportunity to meet with key decision makers and other representatives looking for breakthrough Critical Infrastructure security products.”

The ABLOY PROTEC2 CLIQ Connect is an access control mobile app that improves a large organization’s security and efficiency levels. It gives facility managers the power to control access rights to assigned keys, and an audit trail for both locks and keys. Using CLIQ Web Manager software allows them to update, amend, renew or revoke access rights remotely that saves time.

Mobile workers open the app for updated access permission that is transferred to their programmable CLIQ key via Bluetooth. Lost keys can be activated without the need for mechanical keying.

”The capabilities of the CLIQ Connect app makes it a very good fit for a wide range of industries with Critical Infrastructure security needs,” continued Burhans. ”Utilities, rail transportation, gas and energy companies, municipal water treatment facilities and others have demanding federal regulations and guidelines to meet. Those with critical assets can benefit from using CLIQ Connect.”

The ABLOY PROTEC2 Super Weather Proof padlock is best suited for high risk and high value industry sectors such as critical infrastructure, government, and defense end users. It provides superior protection from the elements and is quickly earning a reputation as the world’s toughest electromechanical locking solution.

”SWP is designed to assure that you have the ultimate protection against forcing, picking and vandalism, and the case hardened boron steel shackles offer true reliability. You realize how strong a product it is when you hold it in your hand,” said Burhans.

”SWP has passed every test for hot and cold conditions, as well as dirt, grime and moisture. At GSX, we kept one submerged in a fishbowl in our booth all three days. Everyone was impressed with how it opened right away. Our customers who have experienced it in the field know. They feel the same way.”
