eCLIQ
eCLIQ is a purely electronic keying system developed by ASSA ABLOY. It is a cost effective solution which provides electronic access control without the need for wiring. eCLIQ cylinders retrofit into existing doors and locks.
eCLIQ offers the electronic features such as programmable access rights, time scheduling, audit trails, and blocking of lost keys.
Both the key and cylinder contain electronics but only the key has a battery. The battery in the key powers up the electronics in the cylinder at key insertion.

eCLIQ Intelligent Electronics
eCLIQ is based on electronics that can be embedded directly inside the key and the core of a cylinder. Each ASSA ABLOY®eCLIQ key and cylinder contains a unique electronic code, designated for one individual element only and cannot be altered or corrupted.
The electronic mechanism embedded in the cylinder, is a self-contained unit. Consequently, the intelligent cylinder installs with ease like any normal cylinder.
Operating Principle
The use of eCLIQ keys and cylinders is nearly the same as the use of a normal mechanical keying system. The only difference is the sound and visual signals given to the key holder when an eCLIQ key is inserted in an eCLIQ cylinder. The electronics in the key and cylinder cause a short delay of around 0.1 seconds before the key can be turned after the key insertion.
