Chubb Locks Custodial Services (CLCS), Intelligent Locking Systems (ILS) and Pickersgill-Kaye (Kaye) have formed as the High Security & Safety group, a new division of Assa Abloy Opening Solutions UK & Ireland, to provide a stronger, more comprehensive offering to different sectors.
Each brand enjoys its own areas of expertise, with CLCS a supplier of high-security locks to custodial, secure healthcare, government and secure education environments. ILS is a manufacturer of high security locks for safes and vaults, providing solutions to the banking, construction, leisure and jewellery sector. Kaye is a designer and manufacturer of robust, specialist door locks for the architectural and railway industries.
The CLCS, ILS and Kaye divisions will continue as distinct brands within the High Security & Safety Group, which will sit alongside Assa Abloy Opening Solutions UK & Ireland’s other specialist business units. These include the Door Group, Door Hardware & Access Control Group and the Project Specification Group.
Simon Teagle, Managing Director, High Security & Safety Group, said: “The creation of the new High Security & Safety Group will help signpost our specialist high security, safety and rail brands to the market, giving them one point of contact and access to a wider range of products, as well as a more tailored solution.
