    Carlsbad, Calif., January 13, 2021 — Nortek Control has announced that the company’s soon to be released 2GIG EDGE Security Panel has won the Consumer Technology Association (CTA) 2021 Security and Surveillance Product of the Year Award.

    The award is part of the Mark of Excellence Awards presented every year by the Smart Home Division of the CTA, which recognizes the best in custom integration and installed technology.  

    The panel incorporates the latest in smart technologies and user features all built on a more secure platform. According to a press release, these breakthrough advanced technologies and features "have already impressed multiple integrators with the product’s speed, intuitive functionality and overall design in Beta test installations."

    In addition, the company says that dealers and integrators will realize significant value from its installation flexibility that lets them offer a more compelling, extensive total solution that can easily and seamlessly connect to an array of today’s smart home technologies and products. 

    "We know the 2GIG EDGE Security Panel is set to dynamically change the landscape of the security industry," said Richard Pugnier, VP of Marketing at Nortek Control. "We are very thankful to the experienced CTA judging panel for this prestigious award, and recognize that achieving it would not be possible without the support and expertise of our dealers, builders and clients along with the many dedicated, driven employees in our company." 

    The Nortek Control Builder Services Program – which provides tools, marketing, products and support helping integrators and builders educate homeowners about the latest integrated smart home systems and technologies – also earned a 2021 CTA Mark of Excellence Award for Best Educational and Support Program.

    The 2GIG EDGE Security Panel will be the centerpiece of the company's Production Home Program and is anticipated to be released in the first quarter of 2021.
