ALLIANCE FOR WINLOCK AND KENRICK
Winlock, one of the UK’s largest hardware manufacturers and distributors, has embarked on a major alliance with Kenrick. The partnership seesKenrick supply an exclusive range of high security locking systems to the Shropshire-based company.
Attracted to Kenrick because of the company’s superior product range, high levels of service and technical expertise, Winlock has chosen a full suite of products including Kenrick’s Excalibur, Easi-Fit and Centurion multi-point locking systems, as well as the Kenrick Espagnolette. Winlock will also be one of the first companies to use Kenrick’s recently developed Fast Fit Centurion system. Designed with the fitter firmly in mind, this robust shootbolt is quicker and easier to install than ever before, enabling fabricators to significantly increase profitability, without compromising on quality.
Alan Drake, Winlock’s Director of Sales, says: “We reviewed many systems from several well known suppliers and found Kenrick to be way ahead on product, service and value for money. We’re very confident that our partnership with Kenrick will bring many benefits to our growing customer base of fabricators who are always looking for good products that combine the very best in security and performance with ease of fitting.”
Steve Jones, Kenrick’s managing director, added: “We are delighted to be working with Winlock, which has developed a great reputation for providing a total hardware solution for fabricators. There is a great synergy between the two companies and we are looking forward to enhancing Winlock’s offering with our range of high performance locking systems.”
