"With today's top talent coming together at the AD Show to celebrate design, this is the perfect setting to launch Evolved, a beautifully designed, luxurious Baldwin handleset that is technologically advanced," said PJ Rosch, senior brand manager for Baldwin Hardware, Spectrum Brands, Inc. - Hardware and Home Improvement Division. "Our industrial design team has been working tirelessly to ensure the design of Evolved meets the highest standards of Baldwin customers, while also offering a technological solution they have been requesting."
EVOLVED Baldwin Evolved delivers an electronic solution designed to exceed the luxurious architectural standards of Baldwin customers. By leveraging Bluetooth technology, Evolved offers an easy touch-to-open solution in 18 handleset styles and three deadbolts. Customers can choose from 18 Baldwin finishes for customizable style.
Evolved connects through advanced gateway technology to allow users to easily open and close doors via their smartphone and the Kevo mobile app, which runs in the background so there is no need to open the app to enter the home. By downloading the app, users can easily issue "ekeys" for remote access. Upgrade to Kevo Plus for real-time access history and remote unlocking capabilities. Evolved's streamlined design easily conceals the technology in a smart, sleek interior design that is 60 percent smaller than other electronic products on the market.
Attendees will be able to experience Evolved through Baldwin's Augmented Reality app and choose which style and finish will look best on their own home.
