Traka's Touch Pro line of intelligent key cabinet systems has been recognized for its design excellence. The latest design features a sleek, modern build that makes it easy to assemble, install, and configure in almost any space. Traka’s engineers have prioritized sustainability, creating a more robust, reliable, and secure solution that sets a new standard for the industry.

Perla Munhoz, Global Head of Product Design at ASSA ABLOY Group commented, “Winning the Red Dot award for our Traka Touch Pro fills us with immense joy, confirming we're on the right path. In a market of similar boxy designs, our intelligent key cabinet stands out with its functional and elegant design, respecting both its environment and users.

Wayne Stant, Product Director for Traka added, “We knew following in the footsteps of the popular Traka Touch key cabinet range was going to be no small feat. Designing the Traka Touch Pro required a monumental team effort, involving insight from right across the business, ASSA ABLOY Group, our partners and most importantly, our customers. Accomplishing this in the middle of a pandemic was amazing to be part of and is now being rewarded with market success. We’re delighted to receive the prestigious Red Dot award as an extra validation of all our hard work.”
