ERA, The Door Lock People, were buzzing with the sound of innovation at this year’s DIY & Garden Show, thanks to their newest invention - the ERA Locca Connecta. The stand was kept busy throughout the show with customers actively requesting demonstrations of the new system.

The ERA Locca Connecta created so much excitement because when combined with ERA’s Locca Multi and Access systems, it becomes a wireless intercom - allowing homeowners to speak to visitors and check who is at the door before letting them in from a range of 200 metres. This makes it ideal for people with mobility issues, or simply the latest must-have accessory for the modern home.

Visitors to the DIY & Garden Show this year were among the first people to experience the next generation in multi point locking. ERA are first to market with the Vectis, a revolutionary cylinder-free MPL, which takes its name from the Latin word for ‘lever’ as it combines modern multi point locking with traditional lever technology.

ERA took the opportunity to familiarise customers with other areas of the ERA brand, by showcasing their comprehensive range of Crompton Ironmongery, including traditional door hinges, bolts and an impressive selection of general fittings for a multitude of everyday applications.

Also making a well-received first appearance at the show, was the new and improved ERA Block Lock, which generated interest from customers thanks to its enhanced bracket design making it suitable for vans, garden sheds and much, much more.

Look out for the ERA Vectis and other new products from ERA, The Door Lock People, in 2008.
