Keys and Locks for Helmsman Lockers

Helmsman lockers are designed for security and durability, offering various locking options to suit different environments. From traditional key-based locks to advanced electronic solutions, users can select the best locking method for their needs.

Traditional Key Locks

Key locks remain a reliable and widely used option for securing Helmsman lockers.

Cam Locks – These simple yet effective locks operate with a standard key. They are ideal for offices, schools, and leisure facilities. Each lock comes with a unique key, ensuring individual security. Deadbolt Key Locks – A more secure option, deadbolt locks provide enhanced protection against forced entry. They are commonly used in high-security areas.

Replacement Keys – Lost keys can be an issue, but Helmsman provides replacement key services for all key-operated locks.

Padlock-Compatible Locking Options

Some users prefer to bring their own security. Helmsman lockers accommodate personal padlocks with specific locking designs.

Hasp & Staple Fittings – These fittings allow users to attach their own padlock. They are a flexible solution, commonly used in workplaces and gyms.

Padlock-Ready Cam Locks – These locks offer the same functionality as a standard cam lock but require a padlock instead of a key.

Mechanical Keyless Locks

For users who want keyless access without relying on electronics, mechanical combination locks provide a practical alternative.

Dial Combination Locks – Users set a personal code, eliminating the need for keys. Ideal for high-traffic areas like schools and gyms.

Push-Button Mechanical Locks – These locks use a numerical keypad for access. They offer simple operation and enhanced security.

Electronic Locks

Modern electronic locks provide enhanced security and convenience, eliminating the need for physical keys.

RFID Locks – These locks allow access with a card or fob. Common in workplaces and hotels, they integrate with existing access control systems.

Digital Keypad Locks – Users enter a unique PIN to unlock their locker. Some models feature auto-locking for added security.

Networked Electronic Locks – These locks connect to a central system, enabling remote management and tracking of locker usage.

Coin and Token Locks

Helmsman lockers offer coin-operated locks, ensuring lockers are available after each use.

Returnable Coin Locks – Users insert a coin to lock the locker. The coin is returned when they unlock it. These are ideal for gyms and leisure centres.

Retention Coin Locks – The coin remains in the lock, encouraging responsible locker use. Common in swimming pools and public changing areas.

Token-Operated Locks – These work similarly to coin locks but use specific tokens instead of standard coins.

Master Key Systems

Managing multiple lockers is easier with a master key system. Helmsman provides solutions for administrators and facility managers.

Master Key Overrides – A master key can open all lockers in a system, allowing quick access in case of lost keys or emergencies.

Sub-Master Key Systems – Different levels of access can be assigned, ensuring controlled locker management. Key Storage and Management Accessories

For environments with many lockers, key management is crucial. Helmsman offers solutions to keep keys organised.

• Key Cabinets – Secure storage for spare keys, helping administrators track locker access.
• Key Tags and Labels – Colour-coded or numbered key tags assist with easy identification.
• Key Tracking Systems – Digital key management solutions allow administrators to monitor key distribution and returns.

Lock Upgrades and Replacements

Locks may require upgrades over time to improve security or functionality. Helmsman lockers can be fitted with new locks as needed.

Retrofitting Locking Systems – Existing lockers can be upgraded to electronic or combination locks. Replacement Locks – If a lock becomes damaged or outdated, Helmsman provides replacement options to maintain security.

Helmsman lockers support a wide range of key and locking solutions, from traditional cam locks to advanced electronic systems. Whether users require key management, combination locks, or RFID access, there is a secure and practical option available. These locking solutions enhance security, improve locker usability, and provide flexibility for different environments.
