TORONTO—Alfred International, a manufacturer of smart lock solutions, has unveiled its new Interconnect Kit that it says, enables any Alfred smart deadbolt to function as a code-compliant interconnect lock with single-motion egress functionality.
The company says that its latest product can be used for retrofit and new installs, and the company suggests the new Interconnect Kit makes Alfred’s entire smart lock lineup viable in multi-family, single-family, rental, and commercial properties where locks with single-motion egress are a requirement, not an option.
“The Interconnect Kit represents a breakthrough in multi-family access control,” says Brad Cook, head of product integration at Alfred International. “We’re enabling property managers to modernize their access control without compromising on safety or breaking their budget. This innovation opens up smart access to millions of units that were previously limited by code requirements and extremely limited options.”
Interconnect Kit Solves Common MDU and Rental Property Security Issues
According to Alfred, property managers have always faced the challenge of choosing between very limited smart access control options and fire code compliance. Through the release of the Interconnect Kit the company boasts the product eliminates this trade-off with a solution that transforms any Alfred smart deadbolt into a code-compliant interconnect lock.
Alfred says by using the new kit allows property owners to upgrade security without replacing entire lock systems to help maintain technological continuity across properties regardless of property type or regional building code requirements.
Engineered to meet the demands of both commercial and residential applications, the Interconnect Kit is designed for quick and easy installation in standard prepped doors. Featuring multiple lever options, a sleek profile, and finishes that match Alfred’s smart locks, the Interconnect Kit is designed for modern security needs.
