Saflok ELECTRONIC ACCESS: Controlled by Security Access Manager software, Saflok’s electronic access system programs keys with computer chips embedded in them. For example, keys can be set up to work only in certain areas or during specified times. Even if keys are driven over or fall into water, they’ll still work, the company says. All communication between keys and locks is stored centrally, and key making activity can be tracked. The software is Microsoft Windows-based.

There are no horizontal joints to block or filler strips to cut and install. In hurricane zones, this can reduce the number of metal straps the builder needs to install. And when installed with an engineer-approved nailing pattern, Windstorm satisfies uplift and shear requirements in areas with building codes for up to 140 mph winds.
