Agent E – The smart lock. Agent E is installed as a handle module instead of the usual handle or quarter-turn and takes over the functions of a lock. By means of a mini transmitter a coded light beam is directed onto a solar cell in the handle module. After successful transmission the lock will be released. The lock and the handle in one module, retrospective fitting to doors is possible, individually configured options and saving of events logs. As an additional option several locks may be activated through an access point, in server rooms for example.

For many years EMKA have operated on the basis of supplying “everything but the enclosure” and increasingly they are also finding that “everything in stainless steel” is the demand for cabinet hardware as installations find more aggressive environments and more challenging regulations. Industries such as food processing and pharmaceuticals have become much more sophisticated and far reaching in their requirements that companies such as EMKA now provide a wealth of stainless steel components from hinges and handles to specialist locking systems. Materials vary from AISI 303 to AISI 316 and include fabricated as well as fully machined items with sealing up to IP66.

Our aluminium WINDOW and DOOR UNITS are custom made and available with a wide variety of options. Available with or without frame, completely assembled or as a kit for self-assembly.

Our COMMERCIAL VEHICLE ACCESSORY program covers items such as emergency hammers, door handles, luggage compartment handles, locks, latches, storage nets, cupholders, air vents, strikes, toggles and similar items. This builds on our extensive program of moulded sealing profiles and custom formed gasket rings and frames with vulcanised corners – which have met a significant need within the commercial vehicle industry.

Applications include buses, coaches, earth moving equipment, military vehicles, transfer vehicles, trains, light rail, generators, trailers, trucks, glazing panels, recreational vehicles, cabins, caravans, ships and boats, special vehicles, cabinets, enclosures and general ‘industrial’ situations, as well as off-road vehicles, subways, trams, railway carriages, mobile homes, municipal vehicles, horse boxes and emergency service vehicles.
