Paxton announces exclusive distribution with Regal Group

February 2018 News & Events, Access Control & Identity Management

Paxton has updated its distribution network in South Africa by announcing an exclusive distribution partnership. From 15 January, the company’s product range, including its flagship access control system, Net2, will be available nationally from branches of the Regal Group, which includes Regal Security and Reditron.

Net2 is designed to be easy to specify and install, making life simpler for installers and integrators. It moves beyond the basics of securing access to doors to provide features including system integration, building management, energy saving and security lockdown.

Established in 1981, the Regal Group became an official Paxton distributor in 2016. Today, the Regal Group offers its customers the choice of over 4000 security products and peripherals, available from 26 branches throughout the country.

Andrew Levell-Smith, Regal Group’s access control product manager, said: “We are privileged to have been awarded exclusive rights to distribute Paxton, one of the world’s leading access control brands, in South Africa. Recent market shifts have led to a marked increase in demand for innovative access control products. The combination of Paxton’s quality brand and Regal Group’s countrywide distribution channels will prove to be a dominant force in this growing market during 2018 and beyond.”

Dan Drayton, Paxton’s international sales manager, said: “We are excited to be strengthening our partnership with Regal and Reditron in South Africa and are confident that this exclusive partnership will be beneficial for our customers. We have some exciting plans for 2018 and are looking forward to continuing to grow our customer base in the region.”

Paxton has also launched an online search tool to help customers find local security installers who have been trained to install its Net2 product range. These certified installers are a part of its Paxton Partner Programme and work closely with Paxton’s regional sales team to ensure that the needs of customers are fully understood and met.
