Key flowchart: Captain Keys, the online solution from legallais

Why are people increasingly buying online? For the price, the choice, and finally, the speed and simplicity.
It is by relying on this reality that the BtoB distributor of products for the secondary construction industry, Legallais, has created Capitaine Clés, an innovative and free online service allowing craftsmen to manage their key charts independently and easily.

User priority

In the field of locksmithing, a "key chart" establishes the hierarchy of access rights to the various premises existing in an infrastructure comprising one or more buildings and answers the question: which key opens which door of one or more buildings?
Capitaine Clés adopts a simple starting principle: think like the end customer, taking into account their needs and not the technicality or even complexity of the product. Its objective: to prioritize, authorize, rationalize, and facilitate access to a building. There are numerous needs and requests from craft businesses and SMEs in the construction industry (carpentry, locksmithing), fittings and furnishings, maintenance services, technical services for local authorities, hospitals, technical education, etc.
With free access, Capitaine Clés gives users back the autonomy and choice that the market had taken away from them. This is a true commitment: "Being useful to craftspeople, making their lives easier by taking the purchasing process into account, is the foundation of our thinking and our actions. More than two years of work and a patent application were necessary to gain recognition for Capitaine Clés within its market and among its partners," explains Philippe Nantermoz, CEO of legallais.

Easy to use, quick and clear offers

Capitaine Clés matches precise specifications to a multi-brand, multi-range offering. In just a few clicks, the contractor can integrate all of their access rights requirements for their building project. They determine which key opens which door by checking the corresponding box.
With just a few clicks, the craftsman receives the best technical offers on the market that match his specifications: visibility on brands, ranges, average lead time, and net price excluding VAT. He can then determine his choice based on the requirements of his project.
Capitaine Clés showcases the offerings of all legal suppliers: Vachette, Dom, Iséo, Abus, FTH Thirard, Tesa, JPM, IFAM, Multlock, and can respond to a price request in just a few minutes. Almost instantly, the craftsman receives his organizational chart and cost estimate, compared to at least 72 hours previously.
