Traka Enters Mechanical Key Systems Market

Traka Automotive, a UK electronic key management solution provider for automotive dealers, has expanded its product portfolio by launching Trakamec, a mechanical key management range.

Trakamec is an affordable new addition to Traka Automotive’s extensive range of solutions, designed to meet the needs of dealerships and services centres that are not yet requiring fully networked and integrated electronic key management systems. Trakamec is available in two systems; Trakamec Supreme as tested to LPS1175 and EN14450 standards, and Trakamec Lite for a simpler and more low cost solution.

“Latest statistics show nearly a third of Brits are now looking to prepare to return to regular commuting, purchasing a car to limit their exposure to other members of the public and avoid public transport where possible. Dealerships, large and small across the UK, need to be up and running as efficiently as possible to meet demands," says Paul Smith, Director Traka Automative. “Trakamec has been launched as a cost effective solution to help those aspiring to move to an electronic system as they grow in this new working environment. Traka Automotive is already the market-leading electronic key management solution provider amongst larger franchise and prestige dealerships brands. With the launch into mechanical, we’re making the upgrade path very easy and attractively-priced for dealerships to advance at their own pace.” 

Each Trakamec Supreme cabinet is built with the highest quality Union Assa Abloy components including force resistant, anti-drill, anti-pick and anti-saw BS 5-lever mortice deadlocks for extra peace of mind and security. Additionally, each Supreme cabinet comes with a modern electronic Code Handle from Assa Abloy which can be programmed with nine different user codes.

Trakamec Lite is a low cost key management solution, designed to meet the needs of dealerships with less stringent security specification demands than Trakamec Supreme provides. Trakamec Lite cabinets are available with 50, 100 or 150 key capacity.

Smith concluded: “Trakamec customers can be assured at an uncertain time of getting the best of many worlds. They will receive a solution designed, made and supported by Traka; the global leader in access solutions dedicated to satisfying end user needs for security, safety and convenience. At the same time benefit from a highly cost-effective, outstanding quality mechanical product designed specifically for automotive customers that can be scaleable to suit individual dealership requirements.”
