ABLOY and Neenah Unveil Partnership to Secure Underground Infrastructure

Utility and industrial enterprises need secure operations around-the-clock, knowing that any threat to the public’s safety can negatively impact revenues and tarnish their reputations. Now they have a new solution to help as ABLOY USA Critical Infrastructure Global Solutions has created an exclusive partnership with Neenah Foundry to introduce InfraLOCK™, a high security locking system designed specifically to protect the nation’s underground infrastructure.

ABLOY USA has an impressive 45-year track record of developing advanced engineering, design, and innovation in the field of electromechanical locking technology. In addition to providing critical asset security, they offer remote access management solutions to minimize security risks at critical infrastructure properties operated by governments and utilities around the world. Wisconsin-based Neenah Foundry has produced American-made municipal infrastructure and construction products for the water and sewer industries for nearly 150 years.

InfraLOCK is a heavy duty Neenah manhole cover that incorporates the ultrastrong ABLOY^® PLM340 padlock. The cover is furnished with a cast iron plug that conceals the weather-resistant padlock housing. When unlocked, the hardened steel constructed padlock swings to the side – and by design – cannot be removed from the housing. Pullback on a cast iron bar releases the locking mechanism and allows the cover to be removed.

ABLOY’s shackle-sealed, corrosion-resistant padlock provides a host of benefits. It starts with patented disc rotating technology, making the padlock almost impossible to pick. Cylinder options inside the padlock allow for integrating systems to control keys, manage access rights, and perform audit trails with ABLOY CLIQ™ technology.

InfraLOCK is easy to install and can be retrofit into existing frames without costly demolition, unnecessary hardware or installation expenditures. The housing can be fitted to virtually any standard manhole cover.
