🔐 Why Pair a Schlage Encode Smart Lock with an Abloy Protec2 Cylinder?

In today’s world, smart locks are everywhere—but true security means covering both the digital and the physical. That’s why combining a Schlage Encode smart lock with an Abloy Protec2 high-security cylinder is one of the smartest security upgrades you can make.

At Crono Lock, we’re all about giving Langley homeowners and businesses the tools to stay secure without sacrificing convenience.

📱 Smart Access Meets Unbeatable Key Control

The Schlage Encode offers all the smart features you want:

  • App-controlled access

  • Temporary and scheduled codes

  • Wi-Fi integration with Alexa & Google Assistant

  • Phone / Watch tap to open with the Encode Plus

But its weak spot? ⚠️ The standard pin tumbler key override, which can be picked or bumped by someone who knows what they’re doing.

Swap it out for an Abloy Protec2, and now we’re talking.

🛡️ Protec2 = Physical Fort Knox

The Abloy Protec2 cylinder isn’t your average lock. It’s:

  • Pick-proof

  • Bump-proof

  • Drill-resistant

  • A Restricted Keyway

It uses rotating disc technology instead of pins, which makes traditional locksmithing attacks useless. You’d need specialized equipment—and weeks of training—to even attempt it.

This is the same tech used in:

  • Power stations ⚡

  • Hospitals 🏥

  • Airports ✈️

🔑 Key Control You Can Actually Control

Ever made a spare key at the hardware store? So can anyone else.

With Protec2, all keys are:

  • Cut only by authorized dealers 🧾

  • Tracked with registration 🧷

  • Impossible to copy without permission 🚫

You’ll know exactly how many keys exist. And who has them.

🔄 Digital Convenience + Mechanical Backup

Pairing these two gives you the best of both worlds:

  • 🧠 Smart access when you're out and about

  • 💪 Serious mechanical security when it really counts

  • 🔋 Peace of mind if the battery dies—you’ve still got a high-security key

No compromises. No weak links.

🧠 Is This Overkill? Only If You Don’t Value What’s Inside

If your home or business matters to you—your family, tools, documents, or equipment—then protecting it with only a basic smart lock just doesn’t cut it.

🔒 Adding an Abloy Protec2 cylinder upgrades your lock to real-world standards. It's not about paranoia—it's about preparation.
