From keys to codes: retrofitting camlocks on existing furniture and lockers
Lost keys, spare key boxes and lockouts take up a surprising amount of a facility team's time. Most keyed camlocks can be replaced with a keyless Ojmar lock on the same doors, so the furniture and lockers stay where they are.
Two keyless options
OMS 8002: a mechanical 4-digit combination camlock. Users set their own code, with 10,000 combinations, a code refind function and master key opening. No batteries. Suits doors from 1 to 21.5 mm.
OGS 10: an electronic keypad camlock with a 4 to 6 digit PIN, master code and mechanical emergency key, running up to 6 years on 2 × CR2032 batteries. Suits locker doors from 6 to 20 mm and furniture from 16 to 20 mm.
Which one?
Choose the OMS 8002 when users keep the same locker or pedestal for a long time and the facility wants no batteries. Choose the OGS 10 when users change more often, when staff need a master code, or when a keypad feels more natural to the people using it.
What we need to quote
- A photo of one of the current locks, front and back if possible
- The number of locks
- Door material and thickness
- Whether the lock turns vertically or horizontally
Doing it in stages
A retrofit can start with one floor, one staff room or one bank of lockers. Because both locks fit existing doors, each stage is simply a lock change.
