Traka Automotive enters mechanical key systems market with launch of TrakaMEC

TrakaMEC is an affordable addition to Traka Automotive’s extensive range of solutions, designed to meet the needs of dealerships and service centres that are not yet requiring fully networked and integrated electronic key management systems.

Presenting a highly secure mechanical key management solution, TrakaMEC is available in two variants: TrakaMEC Supreme as tested to rigorous LPS1175 and EN14450 standards, and TrakaMEC Lite for a simpler and more low cost solution.

Paul Smith, director at Traka Automative, commented: “The latest statistics show that nearly a third of Britons 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 right across the UK now need to be up-and-running as efficiently as possible in order to meet the expected demand.”

Smith continued: “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 a leading electronic key management solution provider among larger franchise and prestige dealerships brands. With the launch into mechanical, we’re making the upgrade path easy and very attractively-priced such that dealerships can advance at their own pace.”

High quality components  

Each TrakaMEC Supreme cabinet is built with Union ASSA ABLOY components including force-resistant, anti-drill, anti-pick and anti-saw BS five-lever mortice deadlocks for extra peace of mind and security. Additionally, each Supreme cabinet comes with a modern electronic Code Handle which can be programmed with nine different user codes to improve security.

TrakaMEC Lite is a low-cost and effective 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.

In conclusion, Smith told Security Matters: “At what is an uncertain time, TrakaMEC customers can be assured of receiving the best of many worlds. They will receive a solution designed, made and supported by Traka. At the same time, they’ll benefit from a highly cost-effective and quality mechanical product designed specifically for automotive customers that can be scalable to suit individual dealership’s requirements.”
