We Return After Some Setbacks
The past 3 months have been very challenging for us. We have suffered from financial and mechanical setbacks that almost shut us down forever. We are slowly clawing our way back and working to rebuild after a monumental catastrophe forced us to close our doors for almost 8 weeks, This couldnt have happened at a worse time, considering the country is deep in the throes of a pandemic/health crisis and the false economy on main street vastly differs from the corporate world which has access to government subsidies that many/most small business do not.
We take this opportunity to thank our many clients and colleagues for their faith in us and sticking with us during these unprecedented times.
We live to serve. It is our passion to provide solutions to your issues and problems surrounding physical security products and door repair needs. Please remember us, next time you have a need to fix that door, repair that lock, service your patio sliding door, install high security key control system.
We look forward to serving you and making your life and your families lives easier and more pleasured.
Thanks

PullBolt - By D&D Technologies
You may be familiar with D&D Technologies, a rather well known Australian manufacturer of the worlds most sought after gate hinge and superior locking technology specified widely, the world over for securing swimming pool gates, commonly known as the Magnalatch.
Another product that has been a central tenet of the shopfront security market for many years is the PullBolt, expertly produced by D&D and has been available in some countries for many years.
As seen in the video above, the product is very straightforward to install and very strong.
Featuring:

- Wont Rust, Corrode or Stain
- Resistant to Hacksawing or Tampering
- Fits Left and Right Handed Doors and Gates
- Face Mount or Side Mount Models available
Key operated and lockable open or shut, this small yet incredibly strong security product offers fabulous security for it's competitive cost.
It can be supplied keyed alike, keyed to differ, master keyed and with the key cylinder removeable, you can replace it with a high security key cylinder from a range of different manufacturers.
I have personally installed a number of these during my 35+ years in the locksmith industry and can attest to their strength and usability, first hand.
Available primarily in Australia, we are trying to become a distributor for this enticing product in North America.
Stay Tuned.

Many consumers need and want better or more advantageous products and methods that contribute to making their lives easier and the Accuride products by Hafele, certainly do just that.

The product shown here is a range of cabinet hardware where a cabinet door opens and then slides into a pocket to enable a more efficient use of space. The product contributes to better aesthetics (interior design and look), while being not too complicated to install.
The product uses some unique hardware as shown here. With not too many parts, a talented tradesperson can install them in about an hour or two.
There is no reason a DIY'er could also install, provided they have the necessary tools and follow the instructions correctly.
The diagram here displays a breakdown of how the product is attached. It doesnt appear too complicated.
A video of the product and installation is included below.
Available in differing sizes, the product is worth considering to help increase usable living space in a residence or office or hospital or anywhere that quality cabinetry is desired.

Contact-Less User Interfaces Are Becoming A Part Of Our New Future - Part 2
The impact that voice-recognition technology is having on our daily lives, is becoming more prevalent, given the current pandemic and quantity of smart-speakers currently available.
The above video we shared in a post we wrote almost a year ago and while it is somewhat comical in it's presentation, it does perhaps highlight a potential future that awaits us.
The article we wrote last year, portends that perhaps there are issues with smart-speaker technology today that we are yet to perfect. Given the current times, I suggest that the uptake of more voice recognition technologies may become an even greater part of our lives, that our article did not recognize at the time.
In March 2018, we also wrote about the integration of Amazon Alexa into new housing constructions in Sydney Australia. Perhaps this kind of technology is not too distant from us any longer?
I'm curious to know other people opinions about this subject.
Contact-Less User Interfaces Are Becoming A Part Of Our New Future - Part 1
We decided to share a new post to discuss some contact-less options that already exist in today's world and articles that we have written over the last 10 years or so.
Voice control is one area that we have embraced in recent years with the advent of Google Voice, Home, Amazon Alexa, Echo etc among other offerings.
Below find a number of articles that we have written, that provide some interesting reading about some of the options already available to us. Some of the products listed below do not exist anymore but talented researchers are constantly creating new and improved products that might help us progress through this new world...

Verroo - Unique Security Products For The Worlds New Normal Amid Coronavirus Pandemic
At this lecture he gave a rather interesting expose into the security and perception of security of Knox Boxes, which are used and required predominantly by fire departments across the USA to allow authorized first responders to gain access to private and public dwellings without the need to employ destructive entry methods.
The video is about 20 minutes long and may be of interest to locksmiths. security industry technicians, sales people, maintenance technicians, first responders, home owners, apartment complex managers, basically anyone who might see or have these type of key boxes on or near their properties.
It is especially interesting when you consider the security offerings by various vendors concerned more with selling you their products as opposed to offering you a system that actually offers to protect and secure your property for real. (For some unscrupulous vendors, it's not about your security protection - it's only about profits)
We have written about some of the subjects he talks about in the video....

Further to this conversation is my recently acquired knowledge about an Australian company that is the merge between KJ Ross Security Locks, Marget Engineering and Direct Connections in 2015. That new company is called RMD Innovations (you can see their site in the source below).
KJ Ross, I have personally known for about 35 years now, having worked with their safe lock products, their Rosslinear Battery Operated Electric Strike and other lines in their specialty ranges.
RMD have now created significantly improved products for the high security market that update the older Rosslinear Strike (as seen above) and also have begun offering some additional products including a battery-operated strike for rim locks, panic exit devices. standard mortise and cylindrical entry lock-sets. among other products
I am especially interested in these updated product offerings, given the current predicament the world is experiencing with the Coronavirus Pandemic, that has dramatically altered our states of life.
