KAD+ Partner Stories: Collaboration, Challenges & Growth

At Mercury Security Distribution, we’re proud to be Ireland’s only KAD+ Distributor of Kentec products. Recently, we had the pleasure of joining a conversation that brought together key voices from both sides of the Irish Sea to reflect on what it means to be a KAD+ partner.

Johnny Martin from Kentec sat down with Jake Britten and David Davies CTSP M.IPSA from DVS Ltd, alongside our own Paul Fox and Barra O’Connell, to explore the journey of becoming and growing as KAD+ partners. It was a chance to share stories, challenges, and successes—and to highlight the value of collaboration in driving innovation and customer satisfaction.

As the exclusive KAD+ partners in the UK and Ireland, DVS and Mercury bring unique perspectives to the table. These insights are helping Kentec shape the future of the KAD+ programme, ensuring it continues to deliver real value to installers, integrators, and end users alike.

From the early days of partnership to the evolving demands of the fire and life safety industry, the discussion underscored a shared commitment to excellence, technical expertise, and customer-first thinking. It also revealed some common challenges—like navigating complex installations and staying ahead of regulatory changes—that we’re tackling together through open communication and mutual support.

We’re excited about what lies ahead and grateful to be part of a programme that puts partnership at its core. A big thank you to Kentec for facilitating the conversation, and to our fellow KAD+ partners at DVS for their continued collaboration.

Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to grow and innovate together.
