Design for Lockwood’s future – win a $10,000 travel voucher
Design a door opening solution to inspire and influence Lockwood's future product range. Lockwood has broadened the scope of its annual competition; entrants can now design the entire door opening system rather than just a door handle.

With the theme ‘How will you enter 2020?’ entrants will need to anticipate building design trends in 2020, and create a complementary door opening solution.

It’s not about design and manufacturability for today, it is about innovative ideas for the future.

Entries close on Friday 15 August 2008.
Information (including entry conditions) is available at lockweb.com.au/designforlockwood.

Lockwood is a supporting corporate partner of the RAIA.
