St. Albert
Traka key management for St. Albert homes and businesses
St. Albert is a city on Edmonton's northwest edge along the Sturgeon River.
Even with access control on the doors, most buildings still run on physical keys: master keys, vehicle keys, cabinet keys and keys for equipment. Traka, part of ASSA ABLOY, makes intelligent key cabinets that lock each key in place and only release it to an authorized user, with a record of who took it and when it came back.
We help you size the cabinet, set up users and permissions, connect it to your access control credentials where supported, and mount and wire it on site. Traka also makes intelligent lockers for laptops, radios, scanners and other shared equipment.
Local conditions
Built for Edmonton region weather
Long, cold winters with stretches well below minus thirty put exterior doors under real strain. Frost and ice form where seals are worn, and closers and operators slow down in the cold.
Readers and electrified locks on exterior doors need to survive Edmonton winters. We choose hardware rated for the cold and protect connections from moisture.
Common calls in St. Albert
- Master or vehicle keys go missing
- Nobody knows who has which key
