UNION Range Distributed Through SKS

The entire range of UNION hardware is now available through lock and key supplier SKS, making the products more accessible to trade customers.

Based in Berkhamsted, Hertfordshire, SKS distribute products and equipment to the hardware market nationwide. A quickly expanding company, SKS plan to re-invest back into the business and build on its proactive reputation by stocking the biggest brands in the industry.

The move opens up a new route to market for UNION hardware and reinforces the company’s commitment to the smaller hardware shops and mobile customer base, who will be able to take advantage of the UNION product offering.

Trevor Brett, Managing Director of SKS, said: "As we look towards continued growth, developing relationships with trusted British hardware brands like UNION is invaluable in refining our service to the market.

"We now offer the whole UNION range, including the British manufactured C-Series that is made up of former Chubb products, which have now migrated over to UNION."

Eryl Jones, Commercial Manager for UNION, added: "By making UNION products available through SKS we are reinforcing our ongoing commitment to servicing the trade market, while expanding the distribution avenue to the smaller, and even mobile businesses."
