Toronto, Canada – January 8, 2025 – Alfred International, a leader in smart lock technology and a subsidiary of GHT Door Hardware, is raising the bar for connected home security at CES 2025. Leveraging its expertise in Z-Wave® technology, Alfred will highlight the DB2S Smart Lock and ML2 Smart Mortise Lock, both powered by the advanced Z-Wave 800 Series chip. These innovative locks are the world’s only Wi-Charge Air Cord™ ready smart locks, offering wireless power capabilities for unmatched convenience, energy efficiency, and security.

Featuring Z-Wave Long Range, the DB2S offers reliable, extended connectivity, making it perfect for larger homes or multi-unit properties.
The Alfred ML2 Smart Mortise Lock provides a seamless retrofit solution for North American mortise locks, allowing property owners to upgrade security without significant modifications. The ML2 shares many of the same technology benefits of the DB2S, boasting Z-Wave Long Range and Wi-Charge compatibility – offering continuous, maintenance-free operation, making it ideal for both residential and multi-family applications.
“Our focus on Z-Wave technology and wireless power innovation allows us to offer products that are not only highly functional but also deliver meaningful convenience, energy efficiency, and seamless integration with modern smart home ecosystems,” said Brad Cook, Head of Product and Integrations at Alfred International. “At CES 2025, we’re excited to demonstrate how Alfred is redefining what smart locks can do.”
