Extra UK & Cyclex secure exclusive OnGuard locks distribution deal
The flurry of pre-COREbike 2024 distribution news continues with another new exclusive for Extra UK (and its Irish subsidiary Cyclex) – this time, OnGuard locks.
The locks have earned some of the highest security ratings in the UK, thanks to their double and quad-locking mechanisms, bump-resistant cylinders, and hardened steel shackles and chains.
Operating in the design and construction of security products for more than 30 years, OnGuard said that independent testing and accreditation is the best way to instil consumer trust and confidence. Secured by Design allows brands to obtain police recognition for security-related products, and OnGuard has a wide range of U Locks, Chain locks, Folding locks, Cable locks and Ground Anchors that meet and exceed Secured by Design specification.
In addition, the OnGuard Pitbull and Brute range were the first U locks to pass the most stringent Sold Secure Diamond rating, with the bestselling Pitbull series starting from only £49.99 SRP.
Mark Greshon, Head of Brands at Extra UK, commented: “OnGuard is a fantastic addition to our portfolio of market leading brands. Their product range offers the features, approved security ratings and competitive pricing we know both UK consumers and dealers demand. We are looking forward to reestablishing the brand in the UK market, launching exciting new products and working with them to maximise their potential in the UK and Ireland.”
Marc Sneath, Global Brand Manager at OnGuard, added: “We are thrilled about this new partnership with Extra UK and Cyclex for the distribution of OnGuard locks in the UK and Ireland. This collaboration marks a significant milestone in our mission to provide top-tier security solutions to cyclists in these regions. Our commitment to innovation and excellence in design has always been at the forefront, and partnering with Extra UK, a company renowned for their expertise and market reach, aligns perfectly with our vision. We are excited to bring our range of highly secure and robust locks to a wider audience and look forward to a fruitful relationship that not only enhances the presence of OnGuard in these markets but also contributes significantly to the safety and peace of mind of cyclists. Together, we are set to redefine security standards and continue our legacy of protecting what matters most to our customers.”
