November 23rd, 2018 – Minneapolis – A new smart lock is introduced to the world, Oval. Oval is making a statement by changing the way you enter your home with their touch activated technology serving homeowners and multifamily. After 5 years in access control technology, IMGate Inc., expanded into the United States to partner with Kennedy Rowe in this invention. 

Oval’s technology includes touch activation access control with BLE, passcode access, simple guest management perfect for homes and airbnbs. It’s revolutionary in smart access due to changing the user experience of entering a home, but not forgetting our high-end design. The company says, “Our lock stands alone in look compared to other residential locks, but at a competitive price. As an industry, we have complicated the user experience and installation process to where you need to hire tech companies just to do the install. We have made Oval installation process and features easy to use on purpose.”

Smart access control solutions are a multi-million dollar industry offering keyless options, bluetooth options, locks that fit on your deadbolt and complete replacement locks. It’s predicted the overall smart home industry will skyrocket to be worth $138 Billion by 2026 and serve more then half of the world’s population. Oval’s founder, Jon Alsup, found a major issue within the smart lock industry. “The current definition of the market needs to be re-designed. Simplicity, usability, safety and design need to be at the forefront of what access control should be. Not bulky hardware, and a multitude of access options.” 

Concurrently, Oval’s inaugural Kickstarter campaign recently launched providing valuable information on its product offerings and opportunities in the market. Additionally, this will be the only way to buy the lock until 2019 when it hits shelves in American home retailers and online.
