Staff-only doors
Use keypad access for stock rooms, offices, cupboards, workshops, and back-of-house areas where issuing keys creates avoidable admin.
Keypad access guide
Digital door locks give controlled access without handing out a physical key to every user. They are most useful where access changes often, where keys are easily lost, or where a door needs simple shared access without a full electronic access-control system.
The range includes mechanical keypad locks, electronic code locks, gate locks, and specialist brand families from Borg, Codelocks, Kaba, Lockey, Keylex, Gatemaster, and others. Start by matching the lock to the door and duty level, then narrow by code features, override options, and weather exposure.
Use keypad access for stock rooms, offices, cupboards, workshops, and back-of-house areas where issuing keys creates avoidable admin.
Code-based access works well where users change regularly: cleaners, contractors, temporary staff, community rooms, and managed properties.
Mechanical digital gate locks are useful where wiring is impractical and access still needs to be controlled without cutting extra keys.
Some sites need a simple keypad; others need a cylinder override, passage mode, heavy-duty casing, or electronic access-control features.
