The online configurator MyLock from SALTO has won the silver award in the category “Best Product Configurator” at the ARCHITECTS’ DARLING AWARDS 2020.
From the experts’ point of view, the clear design and intuitive user experience were the main reasons for awarding the SALTO MyLock Configurator a 2020 ARCHITECTS’ DARLING AWARD. In addition, they highlighted the immediate display of configuration changes and the ease of user navigation. SALTO MyLock was clearly above the average of all participants in most evaluation categories.
The award was judged by a jury of communication experts and renowned representatives of top international architecture companies and specifiers. In the course of the evaluation, the jury members answered questions about the brand, the “look & feel,” “search results,” and open questions about “difficulties,” “time required,” and “personal impressions.” An overall mark was derived from this, which formed the basis for the final ranking.
SALTO MyLock enables specifiers, architects, partners, and end users to individually configure SALTO‘s wire-free electronic door lock components and visualise them on different door types and styles. Users can select a SALTO electronic lock model, door type, and choose from a broad range of colours, finishes, handles and functions.
Configured for easy and simple use via the web or a mobile device, it’s also possible to configure accessory products like wall readers and SALTO Space access-control-management software and SALTO KS keys as a service-compatible product ranges also are included.
Whether it’s a change model, finish or door type texture, SALTO MyLock users can easily navigate through a menu to make their selection and customize the chosen model as much as possible. Users can choose between different door standards and technology platforms, like SALTO Space access-management software or the SALTO KS cloud-based solution, and opening mode options like contactless smart card, mobile key or keypad.
Users can also make more than one configuration in a single MyLock session, which allows those looking at electronic lock solutions to configure a variety of door models within a building. Once completed, a MyLock user can preview and download 3D and 2D files, including BIM files, in a variety of industry formats.
