As strong, heritage brands in the high security and rail industries, CLCS, ILS and Kaye each offer their own specialisms and sector expertise. By bringing these well-known brands together under one new group, ASSA ABLOY Opening Solutions UK & Ireland will provide a stronger, more comprehensive offering to different sectors.

High security locking solutions

Each brand enjoys its own areas of expertise, with CLCS a prominent supplier of high-security locks to custodial, secure healthcare, government and secure education environments. ILS is a global manufacturer of high security locks for safes and vaults, providing solutions to the banking, construction, leisure and jewellery sector. Kaye is a globally renowned in design and manufacture of highly 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.

Utilising the strength of the brands, the quality of the products and their experience in these areas, ASSA ABLOY Opening Solutions UK & Ireland now has a dedicated Group covering the specific needs of high security and safety customers.
