Feature
is by investing in mechanical coded locks.
These are heavy duty locks suitable for securing enclosures containing construction equipment, robust enough for frequent use, flexible enough to allow multiple workers easy access and effective at keeping the public safely out of the way of any construction hazards. They are cost-effective and can be installed easily on to existing doors, gates and storage units.
For environments that are at par- ticular risk from damage caused by corrosion, it is worth considering a marine grade finish lock. These are designed to withstand exposure to moisture, and are ideal for out- buildings, construction sites, mari- nas and properties by the water.
Secure lockers for a flexible workforce
Another consequence of the increase in homeworking and busi- ness properties becoming more sparsely occupied is a shift towards hot-desking. But sharing facilities needn’t stop at desks. Safe storage of kit, equipment and devices is essential for many workers, but lockers are often in high demand and over-subscribed. A simple solution to this is to equip lockers with coded locks. This enables multiple users to access the same locker securely, without the need for a key. There are many options available. A simple mechanical locker lock can be programmed by the user each time and be ready for
the next person once it is finished with. More sophisticated elec- tronic locker locks can be programmed by an app, allowing access to authorised users at set times. With either option, coded locks can cut down on the number of lockers needed to meet demand. Plus, as each user has their own code, rather than a copy of a key, which is at risk of being mis- placed. Providing coded access to lockers also avoids facilities managers and caretakers needing to spend budget and time repair- ing locks – keeping maintenance costs to a minimum.
Locks for the future
With flexibility becoming more important in the workplace, coded locks look set to become more prevalent, providing convenient access control for a range of sites, buildings, and equipment. If you are looking to upgrade the access control at your office, construc- tion site, shop, school or warehouse, there are an ever-growing range of access control solutions to choose from.
