Install the valve inline
AquaLock replaces or sits alongside the existing shut-off point on the service connection. Standard threaded fittings, no electrical work, no meter-box power.

How It Works
One Key, Every Valve
Step 1
Step 2
Crew arrives with the key
To disconnect a supply, an authorised officer visits the property with the handheld electronic key — the only powered part of the system.
Step 3
Place the key on the valve
The key seats over the contact area on top of the valve, powers the internal actuator, verifies authorisation, and drives the valve closed. Removing the supply takes seconds.
Step 4
Reconnect the same way
When the account is settled, a crew returns, places the key on the valve again and re-opens it. Every lock and unlock is logged on the key.
Why AquaLock
Built For Utility Field Work
No battery at the valve
Nothing in the ground to run flat, corrode or replace. The valve is dormant until the key powers it.
01
Seconds to disconnect
No cutting, no plugs, no digging. Place the key, confirm, done — and reconnection is just as fast.
02
Authorised access only
The valve responds only to a valid key. Casual tampering by the occupant does not restore the supply.
03
Auditable actions
Each open and close is recorded against the valve and the operator for a clear service history.
04
Who It's For
From The Water Board
To Any Property Owner
AquaLock is designed first for water utilities that need a fast, repeatable way to suspend and restore service without a technician spending time at each connection.
- Water utilities & boards — disconnection and reconnection for non-payment, seasonal properties, or maintenance.
- Landlords & property managers — controlled hand-over of water between tenancies.
- Estates, sites & facilities — isolate a line quickly without shutting a whole zone.

FAQs
AquaLock Questions
01.How is the valve powered if it has no battery?
The valve is completely passive when no one is there. When a crew places the electronic key on the contact area on top of the valve, the key supplies power to the valve's actuator for that operation only. As soon as the key is removed, the valve is unpowered again.
02.How do you disconnect a supply?
03.How is it reconnected?
04.Can the occupant just turn it back on?
05.Is AquaLock only for the Water Board?
06.What is the NFC tag for?
