IQ - Intelligent Key Management Alternative

The IQ Key management system is a robust and superior key control and access management system similar to the Traka product that is used widely by many automobile dealerships and hospitals.

Simple to configure and competitively priced to Assa-Abloys product, the IQ system offers an alternative that concerned security management controllers should look into to compare possibilities.

The video (after the jump) shows how simple the system is to use. It includes options for proximity card access and/or PIN access control.




Systems like these are being sought by key management departments of real estate agents, department stores, schools as well because many of these companies have difficulty in accurately tracking whom has taken or borrowed important keys in a key controlled system




The beauty of this product is in it's versatility. Banks and locked box safe storage facilities are liking these new systems to replace the common safety deposit box systems used widely for most of the last century.

As a locksmith, I have been contacted periodically to open safety deposit boxes at banks where the client has lost their issued key. The common method of entry is to perform a destructive entry technique and simply replace the selected lock.

With the IQ system, it becomes unnecessary to issue the user a key at all. Management could issue a proximity card if needed or simply get the customer to create their own electronic PIN code and have the manager swipe their proximity card before they enter their PIN to retrieve the key for their box.

No more safety deposit box destruction, no more lost keys, accurate tracking and logs of entry times by authorised PIN holders. The service and maintenance costs are reduced over the life of the product.
