ASSA ABLOY and Secured by Design (SBD) are celebrating the great success of their recent roadshow, which significantly raised awareness across the industry about the advantages of integrating security into building design from the outset.
Hosted throughout September, the roadshow attracted a diverse audience, including Design Out Crime Officers (DOCOs), Crime Prevention Officers (CPOs), and counterterrorism specialists. The events featured presentations from ASSA ABLOY business units Yale Retail, Yale DWS, Mila, Abloy, Mul-T-Lock, and Union. Attendees also participated in guided tours of the Group’s facilities in Cheltenham, Willenhall, Daventry, and Carlisle, with security testing, cylinder re-pinning and smart living demonstrations.
The presentations highlighted the importance of incorporating effective crime prevention strategies during the planning stages of new constructions and significant refurbishments, including by adhering to standards such as PAS24, TS007, and TS008 and harnessing the benefits of Smart Connected Devices (SCDs) and indicative tests.
ASSA ABLOY also showcased its market-leading, Secured by Design-accredited products. Among these were the Smart Security Ecosystem from Yale Retail, the Postmaster Professional TS008 Letterplate from Yale DWS, the ProSecure 1 star cylinder from Mila, eCliq from Abloy, the MTL™300 Break Secure® 3XP from Mul-T-Lock and StrongBolt from Union.
