OUR STORY
Our journey started in 2016, with a vision to bring smarter, more secure and convenient access management to organisations across the UK and Europe.
Keynetics Ltd was established as a division of SentriLock LLC, a leading electronic key safe manufacturer and service provider in the USA.
A lot has happened since those early days! From introducing new technologies to building lasting relationships with customers and partners, each milestone has helped shape the business we are today.
Take a look through our timeline to see how our story has unfolded.
