McGunn Smart Lock Till Handler Product Line Discontinued

April 23, 2008 New Albany IN, FireKing Security Group announced today the discontinuation of the McGunn Smart Lock Till Handler product line. The product line which has been very successful in the QSR market for many years will no longer be available due to the obsolescence of many key technology parts. Importantly, FireKing Security Group is offering customers, currently buying Smart Lock safes, a lower cost replacement product with equal security and more advanced features.

Van Carlisle, CEO and President of FireKing Security Group said, “anytime you discontinue a product line that has loyal customers it is a hard decision because customer satisfaction always comes first. The McGunn Smart Lock does have many loyal customers but our ability to continue to support the product line would require us to raise the price to a point where it would be a disservice.”

The marketplace for advanced technology in the safe market is growing at a rapid rate particularly in the QSR and c-store categories. Customers are demanding higher level security measures and advanced cash handling systems. In response to this market need FireKing recently introduced a new and improved AuditLokXL. The original AuditLokXL introduced in 1994 has well over 100,000 installations in the US alone. The new lock brings all of the features and benefits of the original and adds many more without adding any cost.

The new AuditLokXL is a perfect replacement for the Smart Lock. The lock is available on a variety of safes in a variety of sizes. Our most popular Smart Lock model SLTH2821 had a list price of $5,799. The comparable safe with the new AuditLok XL, our BSD 2920 model, has a list price of $4,049. It matches up feature for feature with the Smart Lock plus offers these additional features;

  • Automatic Daylight Savings Time Adjustment
  • Duress Alarm
  • Optional Biometrics
  • Keyed or Keyless Access
  • 150 users versus 59 on the Smart Lock
  • 10,000 line Audit Trail versus 1,000
  • 8 hours back-up in the event of a power outage
  • Dual Language Capable
