VingCard Elsafe to Unveil New Electronic Lock @ HITEC 2012

On 26 June 2012, VingCard Elsafe is expected to introduce an entirely new locking concept, designed to solve a variety of hotel security system challenges, including those involving design, installation and maintenance.

The new minimalistic electronic lock concept will make its worldwide debut to the hospitality industry during HITEC 2012, which will take place 25-28 June 2012 at the Baltimore Convention Center.

“With the development of our newest electronic lock concept, we believe that we have now achieved the maximum expression of minimalistic design,” said Tim Shea, president of Assa Abloy Hospitality. “Our goal was to make many of the challenges that face hoteliers today simply disappear - challenges such as aesthetic design, technology integration, electronic lock installation, and system maintenance issues. Our new lock will make all those challenges “vanish”, and we look forward to formally introducing it to the hotel industry next week!”

This latest product introduction continues a long tradition of innovation that began in 1979, when VingCard introduced one of the world’s first recodable locks, and Elsafe the electronic in-room safe. Since that time, the company has remained an industry leader, developing a series of firsts, such as the introduction of the Signature Series in 2005, which set a trend in minimalistic electronic locks with the flexibility to adapt to different hotel styles. The company has also been quick to adopt contactless RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) and wireless RF-online technologies.
