Philips Digital Lock Distributor Shuts Down in Singapore

Interlock Singapore

Technex International Pte Ltd ceased operations as the authorised Philips digital lock distributor in late April 2025, leaving existing customers uncertain about after-sales support and warranty coverage.

Philips Digital Lock Support has Changed: Should You Repair or Trade-In?

What Happened?
Technex International Pte Ltd, the exclusive distributor of Philips EasyKey digital locks in Singapore, stopped distributing these products. As a result, any Philips lock purchased through Technex no longer carries official Philips warranty or support via their former channels.

Who Is the New Distributor?
Ascend Hardware Pte Ltd has been appointed as the exclusive distributor for Philips digital locks in Singapore, effective 1 May 2025. Ascend Hardware now provides authorised technical support, genuine spare parts, professional installations, and full warranty service through its island-wide network.


Dealing with the Philips Digital Lock Transition? Here Are Your Options.

With the recent transition of Philips digital lock distribution in Singapore from Technex International to Ascend Hardware, many homeowners are wondering what the best move is for their home security.

If you currently own a Philips EasyKey, you generally have two solid paths forward. We’ve outlined them below to help you decide what’s right for your home and your budget.


Option 1: Seek a Repair (The "Maintain" Path)

If your Philips lock is relatively new and experiencing a minor issue, repair is a great way to extend its life.

  • Who to contact: Ascend Hardware Pte Ltd
  • Best for: Locks still under warranty or minor software glitches.

Option 2: The Mercury Upgrade (The "Fresh Start" Path)

For some homeowners, a repair might not be the most satisfying long-term solution—especially if the lock is older or if you’ve been looking for a reason to move to more modern biometric technology.

At Interlock Singapore, we want to make that transition easier. Instead of spending on out-of-warranty repairs, we are offering a Philips Owner’s Appreciation Trade In Grant to help you move into our latest series.
