ASSA Elite E-Lite Coin Operated Locker Locks

ASSA Elite E-Lite Coin Return Locker Locks

ASSA Elite, also known as ASSA E-Lite, is a mechanical coin-operated locker lock for shared-use storage in swimming pools, leisure centres, gyms and workplace changing rooms. Its single-coin deposit system allows a user to lock a compartment and take the key after inserting the correct coin.

The E-Lite has an integrated coin return tray. When the locker is unlocked, the deposited coin is returned and the key remains in the lock for the next user. The system operates without batteries or electronic controls.

How the ASSA E-Lite Coin Lock Works

1. Locker available: The locker is unlocked and the user key is retained in the cylinder.
2. Insert coin: The user inserts the specified coin to enable the locking mechanism.
3. Secure locker: The user turns the key, locks the compartment and withdraws the key.
4. Unlock and return: The user opens the locker and retrieves the coin from the integrated return tray. The key remains in the lock.

Coins that are too small for the specified mechanism are directed to the return tray rather than operating the lock.

ASSA E-Lite Coin Denominations

ASSA manufactures E-Lite coin-lock versions for specific denominations, including £1, €1 and €2. The coin mechanism is configured for a particular denomination, so not every E-Lite lock accepts every coin.

When replacing an existing coin lock, identify the denomination originally accepted and confirm that the replacement matches the site's requirements. Token compatibility must be checked against the exact supplied mechanism.

Right-Hand and Left-Hand ASSA Elite Locks

ASSA E-Lite lock bodies are available in right-hand and left-hand configurations. The cylinder must also match the hand of the complete coin-lock mechanism.

ASSA identifies cylinder reference 391550 as a right-hand five-pin removable cylinder and 391551 as the corresponding left-hand version. Both are specified with Mini user keys and a 29 mm cylinder length.

Check the original lock and cylinder references before ordering. Door handing should not be determined solely from the appearance of the lock front.

Removable Cylinders and Key Management

The ASSA E-Lite system supports replaceable cylinders, allowing compatible cylinders to be removed or changed using the appropriate cylinder removal key.

Manufacturer cylinder configurations include master-key arrangements. Master keys and removal keys are separate service items and should be ordered according to the existing key system.

A replacement cylinder may be appropriate where the existing cylinder is damaged or the keys have been lost. Where only an additional user key is required, replacing the complete lock may be unnecessary.

ASSA E-Lite Locks for Swimming Pools

E-Lite locks are intended for applications where locker users change regularly, including swimming pools, leisure facilities and public changing rooms.

ASSA specifies five-pin cylinders for E-Lite installations in wet environments. The complete locker installation must also be suitable for the expected humidity and cleaning conditions.

Choosing a Replacement ASSA Elite Lock

Before ordering, confirm the following:

• Original ASSA E-Lite model or reference
• Right-hand or left-hand lock configuration
• Required coin denomination
• Door thickness and cylinder reach
• Existing door cut-out and fixing pattern
• Fixed or removable cylinder arrangement
• Required keys and master-key compatibility
• Whether the lock body or cylinder is required

ASSA Classic and ASSA E-Lite use different lock-body designs. Their mounting arrangements and components should not be assumed interchangeable.

If the existing lock cannot be identified, use our locker lock identification service and provide photographs of the front, rear and cylinder markings.

ASSA E-Lite Coin Lock Technical Specifications

ASSA E-Lite is a mechanical single-coin deposit lock. Different configurations have been produced, so the exact supplied lock and cylinder should be identified before using the technical information for a replacement installation.

General Specifications

ASSA E-Lite Cylinder References

The manufacturer lists the following five-pin removable cylinders with Mini user keys for E-Lite coin locks.

These are ASSA cylinder references. The lock body and its coin mechanism must be compatible with the selected cylinder and handing.

ASSA's current manufacturer documentation lists the lock body and cylinders separately. A compatible cylinder is normally supplied with two user keys, while master keys and removal keys are ordered separately.

Fixed and Removable Cylinder Versions

Older ASSA E-Lite technical documentation also identifies fixed-cylinder versions for material thicknesses up to 25 mm and removable-cylinder versions for thicknesses up to 29 mm.

The current ASSA E-Lite documentation concentrates on changeable cylinders. Where an existing installation uses an older fixed-cylinder assembly, the replacement specification must be checked against that exact version.

ASSA E-Lite Dimensions and Door Preparation

These dimensions describe the manufacturer's illustrated version. Check the complete hole preparation and cylinder position against the technical drawing before drilling or modifying a locker door.

ASSA E-Lite Reinforcement Plate

Where the existing locker door has a round cut-out rather than the required cylinder profile, ASSA identifies reinforcement plate 492875 as an optional fitting component.

The reinforcement plate is a separate accessory and must be checked for compatibility with the installation.

Installation and Replacement Checks

Check the existing lock body, door fixing holes, latch engagement and cylinder connection before replacing an E-Lite lock. The door must close freely and the locking mechanism must engage securely with the frame.

After installation, verify that the specified coin operates the lock, that the key can be withdrawn when the locker is secured, and that the coin returns correctly after unlocking.

Confirm that the user key remains captive when the locker is available for its next user.
