The Asec Key Switch collection offers robust, trade-quality physical control for access systems, manual overrides, and roller shutter doors. Designed by Asec - a brand trusted by UK locksmiths and security installers since 2003 for reliable, high-value hardware - these switches restrict system operation to authorised keyholders only.
This versatile range includes:
- Roller Shutter Keyswitches: Surface-mounted units featuring a euro profile cylinder, ideal for 230V AC roller shutter motor control.
- Three-Position Flush Switches: Flush-mounted options supplied with keys and fixings. Choose between engraved ('AUTO', 'OFF', 'ON') or numbered ('1', '2', '3') faceplates, both featuring keys that are removable in all three positions for flexible system management.
Whether you need a heavy-duty surface-mounted solution or a neat flush-mount switch, this range provides the dependable performance required for commercial and industrial access control.

Asec
ASEC is a trade-focused security hardware brand built around the “everyday kit” locksmiths and installers reach for, with a big emphasis on breadth, availability, and value rather than boutique-only spec pieces. The brand was established in 2003 and was created specifically to support independent retailers and security professionals with products that “would never become available through the large multiple retailers.”
Where ASEC gets especially interesting (and why it tends to become a “default stock brand”) is the scale of the range:
-
ASEC positions itself as having a portfolio of 2,000+ individual products, described as one of the largest ranges under a single security brand name in the industry.
-
Coverage is intentionally broad across the core trade categories: Access Control, Architectural Hardware, Key Cutting, Locking Products, UPVC, Tools & Accessories.
ASEC is exclusive to Aldridge Security (whom we distribute) in the UK trade ecosystem (Aldridge explicitly calls itself the exclusive distributor of ASEC Security Products worldwide). That exclusivity is a big part of the brand’s identity: it keeps the range aimed at the trade channel rather than getting diluted into mass retail.
