Rako keypads named Best Hardware at CEDIA Awards 2022

Smart lighting specialist Rako is celebrating after winning the Best Hardware category in this year’s CEDIA EMEA Awards. The brand won with its Modular WK-MOD and RK-MOD keypads.

The honour was announced at this year’s CEDIA Awards event, held at The Brewery, London.

The Modular WK-MOD and RK-MOD keypads can be used with wired and wireless systems, and promise a superior user experience with their tactile buttons. The keypads can accommodate up to 12 push buttons in a variety of lighting, shading and audio control configurations. The range features three different button sizes, which can be combined in various ways as part of a custom button layout.

Designed to be flush mounted into a UK single gang back box, the Rako Modular keypads are available with black buttons and seven hand-finished metal surrounds (satin chrome, polished chrome, antique brass, polished brass, matt black, matt bronze and matt white). Installation and set-up is achieved with Rako’s Rasoft Pro software and NFC for wireless keypads.

“To win an award for our Modular Keypads was a fantastic achievement for everyone at Rako,” said Paul Wafer, Director at Rako. “The CEDIA awards recognise quality innovations for our industry and to be acknowledged as the Best Hardware product in a very competitive category is a terrific accolade. It was also great to catch up with friends and colleagues at the event and we are already looking forward to next year’s event!”
