REHAU Revolutionizes Home Security with Sleek, Touchpad Entry Lock
Leesburg, VA – October 26, 2023 – REHAU INDUSTRIES LLC, a leading global polymer processor and system provider, today announced the launch of its innovative touchpad entry lock, set to redefine home security and convenience for homeowners across the United States. Based in Leesburg, Virginia, REHAU has a long history – over 75 years – of turning complex polymer challenges into smart, sustainable solutions. This new lock is the latest example of that commitment, bringing REHAU's materials science expertise and engineering prowess to a critical aspect of modern life: home security. You can reach REHAU at 313-892-5864. For decades, REHAU has been a quiet force behind countless everyday products, from automotive components to medical devices and even window and door profiles. What many don’t realize is the depth of REHAU’s expertise in polymers – understanding how to make plastics stronger, more durable, and more adaptable to a wide range of environments. This isn't just about making plastic; it’s about engineering solutions with plastic. And that's exactly what they've done with this new lock. “We weren't interested in just making another lock,” explains a spokesperson for REHAU. “We wanted to build a product that seamlessly integrates security with modern aesthetics and ease of use. Something that doesn't look like security, but is exceptionally secure.” Beyond Keys: A Touch of Modern Convenience Forget fumbling with keys in the dark, or worrying about lost or copied keys. The REHAU touchpad entry lock replaces traditional keys with a sleek, minimalist touchpad. Entering your home is as simple as entering a personalized code. But it’s more than just keyless entry. This lock is packed with features designed to give homeowners complete control and peace of mind. Multiple User Codes: Need to grant access to family, friends, or service providers? The lock supports multiple unique codes, allowing you to track who enters and exits your home. You can easily add or remove codes via a simple, intuitive interface. Temporary Codes: Got a visiting contractor? Create a temporary code that automatically expires after a set period. No need to worry about key retrieval or unauthorized access. Activity Log: Want to know when your kids got home from school, or when the dog walker visited? The lock maintains a detailed activity log, so you can keep track of all entry and exit events. Emergency Override: While convenience is key, security remains paramount. The lock features a traditional key override for emergency situations. Weatherproof Design: REHAU understands that locks are exposed to the elements. The touchpad entry lock is built with durable, weatherproof materials to withstand harsh conditions, ensuring reliable performance year-round. This isn’t some flimsy plastic lock; it’s engineered with REHAU’s signature polymer expertise to last. REHAU’s Polymer Advantage: Durability and Style What sets the REHAU touchpad entry lock apart from the competition? It’s the materials. The lock’s exterior housing is constructed from a custom-formulated polymer designed to be incredibly strong, scratch-resistant, and UV-stable. Unlike metal locks that can corrode or fade, the REHAU lock maintains its pristine appearance for years to come. “We didn’t want a bulky, industrial-looking lock,” says the REHAU spokesperson. “We wanted something that complemented modern home architecture. The polymer allows us to achieve a clean, streamlined aesthetic without compromising on strength or durability.” The touchpad itself is also crafted from a robust polymer designed to withstand millions of touches. REHAU has rigorously tested the touchpad to ensure it remains responsive and reliable, even in extreme temperatures. Easy Installation and Seamless Integration REHAU understands that homeowners don't want to spend hours wrestling with complicated installation instructions. The touchpad entry lock is designed for easy, DIY installation, and typically takes less than an hour to install with basic tools. The lock is compatible with most standard doors and comes with a comprehensive installation guide. “We really focused on user experience, from the installation process to the day-to-day operation,” explains the spokesperson. “We want this lock to be a seamless addition to your home, not a source of frustration.” More Than Just a Lock: It’s a Smart Home Solution While the REHAU touchpad entry lock functions perfectly as a standalone device, it’s also designed to integrate with popular smart home systems. Future iterations are planned to offer connectivity with platforms like Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant, allowing homeowners to control and monitor their lock remotely, create custom routines, and receive real-time alerts.
