 Welcome to this episode of Door Hardware Nerds. I'm your host, Mia Merrill. I'm the Senior Product Manager for Commercial Mechanical Products for Sergeant Corbin Ruswin and Yale, and I am joined today by Joe Severe. Joe, please introduce yourself. Hi Mia. Thanks for having me. I'm Joseph Severe. I'm the Product Manager for our Wireless Solutions. All right, thanks Joe. And you are here to talk because we've got a new addition to our Safer to Open campaign. So what are you going to talk to us about today? Okay, so today we're talking about paddle trims. So as you mentioned, these are part of our Safer to Open offering. We're focusing on the less touch aspect here. So these are ways to get you from one side of the door to the other. We'll minimize in contact with the hardware, which as we all know in these days is something everyone's looking to do. All right, so what did we do with our paddle trims? So with our paddle trims here, the exciting thing that we're adding here is we're adding the EAC portfolio to it. So as many of you guys may know, we have a broad variety of products here at Sergeant Corbin related to access control. So we have both our integrated wired portfolio, as well as our wireless portfolio. And we're adding this paddle trim to all of those. So that's going to include the Harmony and Access 600, the SE LP 10, and the newly launched SN series on the wired side. And then we're also adding it to the wireless portfolio, the Ion 120 Wi-Fi, the Ion 220 PoE, and the Ion 100 Imperial. And that speaking of new additions, right, the Ion 100 is, we've got a new addition for our Sergeant line, right? Oh, yeah, thank you for the opportunity for the plug. Yes, the Ion 100, we're just about to announce we're adding the fully featured Mortis to that product family as well. So for those of you who like door hardware and order strings at the 8200, and then the Corbin Rust 1 ML 2200 will shortly be available with the Ion 100. That's pretty exciting. We're going to get a lot of extra features in our Imperial line with that, aren't we? Yeah, so there's a lot of excitement with that. The fully featured Mortis line will get us the integrated DPS. So for easier installation, you don't need to drill a separate DPS hole. It's all based on the latch and guard latch position. And we're also adding Debol monitoring for applications like bathrooms and any places you want to do a lockdown scenario where you just want to have that intuitive feel of throwing the Debol to secure the door, or cases where you need the extra security of the physical mechanical Debol. So that will shortly be available with the Ion 100. That's awesome. Bringing it back to the paddle trims. Now, our OEMs, how are they going to handle this paddle trim with their current EAC lines? So we've done everything we can to make it easy for them. It just works is the short answer. So the paddle trim is entirely a mechanical feature. It does in no way change the integration. So if whatever the OEM of your preference of the customer, whoever your access control software is provided by, the paddle trim will work with it just fine. No difference between the existing lever integration. Perfect. So this is just like if a customer wants one lever style versus another level style, it doesn't really matter to the OEM. Exactly. Yep. For our software providers out there, no need to panic or sweat. There's not going to be any last minute scrambling. It looks exactly the same. The paddle works just like a lever on the software side. Perfect. Any other facts you want to share with us about this? I mean, we touched on the high point here. I mean, this is just, as we talked about it, it's a safer lower touch way to get from one side of the opening to another, while still being able to have all the electronic access control and features and monitoring that people expect these days on high security opening. Great. All right. So this is available with the Sargent ALP paddle trim and the Corbin Rust 1 HPSK, and it's available in the stainless steel finishes. So for Sargent, that's 32D, and for Corbin, that's 630 finish. It's available by special request, which means you're going to have to contact your local DSS. And to do that, you can go to asaaboydss.com, click on contact, click find your local representative, and then it'll bring up a menu where you can put in your zip code, and then click find local sales office, and then click submit. And that'll show you who your local sales office is so that you can contact them. That is it for us. Thank you, Joe, for joining us today. I'm very excited both about being able to do paddle trim with EAC, as well as our new full-featured Aperio Mortis Lux. Thank you so much for having me, Mia. All right.
