While Nexkey might be new to the security scene, the company has already made a name for itself, earning a coveted New Product Showcase Award from the Security Industry Association in the wireless access control device and peripheral category at ISC West last year. The company was officially incorporated in 2013, but has been working to break into the access control market since 2016.
“We really thought about access — specifically, access control — and this space is very interesting,” said Nexkey CEO Eric Trabold. “It’s one of those rare things that you and I do every day — we go through so many doors. So we thought this would be an interesting space to go after.”
