Smart And Not So Smart Both On Offer

VBH’s iQ range of multipoint door locks and security window espagnolettes come ready to be turned ‘smart’. The company has now launched an identical range for firms that do not want to offer that smart potential.

Q-Bolt is aimed at fabricators and thus installers, who do not want to offer a Kubu upgrade on an individual door or on a door line as a whole.

IQ products have a sensor inside that will allow homeowners to link their locks to the Kabu App and to set up security alerts and open/close status updates, as well as linking the doors and windows to other kit in a home network, such as alarms, lighting and heating for example.

 

Q-Bolt

Q-Bolt locks are the same as iQ locks in most respects but they do not provide the facility to fit a Kubu sensor. VBH advise that everything else is identical.

Gary Gleeson of VBH says: “All the mechanical quality and benefits of iQ are replicated in Q-Bolt, meaning that it has the same resistance to manual attack through its large chamfered hooks. Q-Bolt locks are cycle tested to 50,000 operations and are available to suit PVC-U single and double doors and composite doors, just like iQ. They even utilise the same one-piece keeps.”

VBH state that, like the iQ range, Q-Bolt locks are built to help doors achieve a pass at PAS24 and are approved for use on Q-secure installations.

 

Picture: Q-Bolt is the same as the VBH iQ offering but without the ability to add in Kubu smart home sensors.
