01-12-2022

Launched just over a year ago, the Fort Smart Security range from Scolmore Group company, ESP, has been proving a huge hit with installers and has just been crowned a Professional Electrician & Installer 2022 ‘Top Product’ award winner.

The awards are recognition for those manufacturers and suppliers that have made a real difference to the electrical contractor’s ability to get the job done efficiently, safely and professionally, whether this is in the form of innovative products, tools or time-saving solutions.

PE Editor, Richard Bowler said: “Our annual awards are a great way to reward those companies that have come up with excellent ideas to help electrical installers and businesses overcome common problems in their everyday work, or to open up new profit streams. The Fort Smart Security range from ESP is therefore a very worthy winner of one of our 2022 Top Product awards.”

Fort is a comprehensive range of smart security products which includes intruder alarms, video doorbell, video security light, sensors and a selection of 1080p cameras. 

They all operate under a single APP – the ‘Click Smart+’ APP – which is completely subscription-free, with no additional fees incurred. By bringing the operation of the Fort range under the well-established, tried and tested Click Smart+ APP from Scolmore, users have control of a raft of connected home and security products all from one secure, easy to access platform.

The Fort Smart Security range has at its core accessibility and simplicity for both the installer and end user and has been designed to bring simple, smart solutions together for a safer and more comfortable home.  The Fort smart security range features contemporary styling and has been designed to be simple to install, maintain and use and provide a hassle-free security solution. 

At the heart of the Fort smart security range is the smart intruder alarm, which will support up to 32 RF devices and provide remote monitoring and alert notifications directly to the Click Smart+ APP. The smart alarm is available in handy kits or can be purchased as separate devices for a tailor-made system.

There are six different kits in the range, with the basic kit containing one each of the following - a smart hub, PIR, door/window contact and remote control.  Other kits offer an additional number of PIRs, door/window contacts and remote controls, and there are two kits which include Pet PIRs.  All devices supplied within the kits are pre-registered, to assist with a straightforward install.

Comments Katie Plumstead, group marketing manager with Scolmore Group: “Since its launch in October 2021, ESP’s Fort Smart Security range has been enjoying huge success, far exceeding the initial expectations.  We are delighted to have had this endorsement direct from the contractors – we have had some excellent feedback on the range which has helped many of them to add a new revenue to their business model.”
