Along with their Building Partnership Program, Allegion is pleased to provide several other services, including a door hardware schedule writing service to the New Zealand and Australian building industry. Whether it is a refurbishment or new project, small or large, the service is available to you at no cost.

Other supports provided specification and schedule development for tender and supply, sample product for approval and Master Key system design and development. With the increasing technical complexity of buildings, and compliance to standards and fire and disability codes, it is now more important than ever to specify the appropriate products. Allegion has the expertise and world-class products and brands to provide you with total solution security.

Residential Construction Keying or RCK systems involve a single key, replicated to be used by tradesmen for all homes during the construction phase. Building companies will be supplied 25 keys free (additional keys by negotiation), which can be reused on future houses/apartments. Each building company receives a personalised RCK system, so no two building companies have the same keys. When the new homeowner takes over the house, they are presented with their own keys, which when used automatically resets the lock cylinder,making the RCK inoperable and providing the homeowner with their own unique combination.

Similarly, Master Keying is a method of controlling access through a building. A key schedule is prepared from provided floor plans. Includes a key tracking system which locates keys and locks and keeps a secure procedure on what keying has been undertaken. Security is based on a system where one lock has its own key. This key will not operate any other locks in the system however where all locks are in the same system the locks can be operated by the one
master key.

With the ever-increasing complexity and range of door hardware solutions available, Allegion believes in a culture of continuous individual development to enable educated choices. Allegion is committed to providing product training to not only its internal team members but extends this offer to their channel partners and end users, so for more information on keypad locks, electronic door locks and front door locks please go to https://www.allegion.co.nz.
