REHAU Unlocks the Future of Access Control with New Bluetooth-Enabled Smart Lock

Leesburg, VA – November 8, 2023 – REHAU INDUSTRIES LLC, a leading global provider of polymer solutions and a trusted name in innovation for over 75 years, today announced the launch of its groundbreaking Bluetooth-enabled smart lock. This isn’t just another lock; it’s a complete rethink of how we secure our homes, businesses, and everything in between. For decades, REHAU has been quietly powering industries – from construction and automotive to medical and furniture. We're the folks behind the durable polymers you encounter every day, often without even realizing it. We don’t usually make the finished product, but we make the materials that make the products great - reliable, long-lasting, and built to perform. This deep materials science expertise is what fueled our venture into smart security. We realized we could build a lock that wasn’t just smart, but robust – a lock that would actually last. “We saw a gap in the market,” explains Sarah Miller, Head of Product Development at REHAU. “A lot of smart locks look sleek, but feel… flimsy. They’re packed with tech, but often built with cheaper materials. We thought, ‘We can do better.’ We’ve spent years perfecting polymer technology, understanding how materials react to weather, stress, and constant use. This lock is a testament to that expertise.” So, what’s special about the REHAU Smart Lock? Simply put, it's about blending cutting-edge technology with rock-solid reliability. Forget fumbling with keys – this lock unlocks with your smartphone via a secure Bluetooth connection. But it’s not just convenience; it’s control. Here’s a breakdown of the key features: Keyless Entry: Unlock and lock your door directly from the REHAU Smart Lock app (available for iOS and Android). No more lost keys, no more hiding spares under the doormat. Guest Access: Need to let a friend, family member, or service provider in while you’re not home? Create temporary digital keys right from the app. Set time limits and revoke access instantly. Perfect for Airbnb hosts, rental property managers, or anyone who needs to share access securely. Activity Log: Want to know who came and went, and when? The app keeps a detailed log of all lock activity, giving you peace of mind and valuable insights. Auto-Lock/Auto-Unlock: Set the lock to automatically lock after a set period of time, or even automatically unlock when you approach with your smartphone. (Geofencing feature). Durable Construction: This is where REHAU really shines. Unlike many smart locks made with plastic casings, the REHAU Smart Lock features a core constructed from our proprietary reinforced polymer. This material is incredibly resistant to weather, impact, and tampering. It won’t fade, crack, or become brittle over time. We’ve tested it extensively in harsh conditions, and it’s built to withstand years of use. Long Battery Life: We know nobody wants to be constantly replacing batteries. The REHAU Smart Lock is designed for efficiency, offering months of operation on a single set of AA batteries. The app will notify you when the battery is running low. Tamper Alert: If someone tries to physically tamper with the lock, you’ll receive an instant alert on your smartphone. Easy Installation: The REHAU Smart Lock is designed to be a straightforward DIY installation. It fits most standard doors and uses existing screw holes. We also provide clear, step-by-step instructions and video tutorials. Offline Access: Even if your internet connection goes down, the REHAU Smart Lock will continue to function using Bluetooth. Beyond the Home: Versatile Applications While ideal for residential use, the REHAU Smart Lock is also incredibly versatile. Its robust construction and secure Bluetooth connectivity make it perfect for: Small Businesses: Control access to offices, storage rooms, and other secure areas. Rental Properties: Streamline guest check-in/check-out and manage access remotely. Storage Facilities: Enhance security and offer convenient access for tenants. Self-Storage Units: Provides keyless entry and tracking. Vacation Rentals: Remote access for cleaners and guests.
