KL1050 RFID Locker Lock Overview

The Codelocks KitLock KL1050, now known as the KL1000 RFID, provides keyless access to lockers, cabinets and cupboards using compatible MIFARE® RFID cards, fobs or wristbands.

This standalone electronic lock is intended for sites that need convenient RFID access without mains wiring, network infrastructure or conventional locker keys. It can be configured for permanently assigned users or for temporary locker use in shared facilities.

• Suitable for new installations and compatible retrofit projects
• Operated using compatible MIFARE® RFID credentials
• Private-use and public-use functions available
• Battery powered with no mains connection required
• Suitable for vertical or horizontal fitting
• Optional IP55 protection when correctly installed with the specified gasket

Choosing the Correct KL1050 Configuration

Select private-use mode where lockers are assigned to known staff, students or other regular users. Select public-use mode where different users need to secure and release available lockers throughout the day.

Before ordering, confirm the locker door material and thickness, existing fixing arrangement, preferred lock orientation and the type of RFID credentials that will be used. Existing access-control cards should not be assumed to be compatible without checking their technology and configuration.

For replacement installations, send photographs of the front and rear of the existing lock together with the door thickness and fixing measurements. Total Locker Service can use this information to assess likely compatibility.

Private and Public Locker Functions

Private-Use Function

Private-use mode is designed for assigned lockers that are repeatedly used by the same authorised people. Up to 50 individual user cards can be registered to one lock.

An authorised user presents a registered card, fob or wristband to open the lock. The lock remains open for approximately four seconds before relocking. This mode is suitable for staff lockers, school lockers, personal storage cupboards and other permanently allocated storage.

Public-Use Function

Public-use mode is intended for short-term locker allocation. A user presents a compatible RFID credential to an available locker to secure it. That same credential must then be presented to unlock the locker.

Once opened normally, the previous user assignment is removed and the locker becomes available to another user. This makes public mode suitable for gyms, leisure centres, swimming pools, spas and other shared facilities.

Master and Technician Cards

The Master User Card is used to configure the lock, change its operating mode and provide authorised override access. It should be clearly identified and stored securely because it is required for programming and emergency access.

In public-use mode, a Technician Card can open a locker without cancelling the current user assignment. The locker relocks automatically, allowing authorised staff to inspect or service it without permanently releasing it for another user.

KitLock KL1050 Technical Specification

Installation and Retrofit Information

The KL1050 can be installed on suitable lockers, cabinets and cupboards. It can replace many conventional cam locks or be fitted to a door that does not already have a locking device.

The position of the upper fixing hole, cam movement, door thickness and clearance behind the door must be checked before drilling. The lock should also be initialised and tested before final installation.

When replacing an existing cam lock, provide photographs of the front and rear of the current lock, the door thickness and the fixing-hole measurements. Total Locker Service can use this information to assess likely compatibility.

Correct installation is essential where the IP55 rating is required. The specified gasket must be fitted correctly, and the complete locker installation should be assessed for the intended environment.

Compatible RFID Cards, Fobs and Wristbands

The KL1050 supports compatible MIFARE®-based RFID credentials. Depending on the installation, users can operate the lock using a smart card, key fob or wearable wristband.

Existing access-control cards should not automatically be assumed to be compatible. The card technology, memory type and existing configuration should be checked before locks or credentials are ordered.

Total Locker Service can supply compatible MIFARE Classic RFID locker wristbands for leisure, workplace and other managed locker installations.

Battery Warning and Emergency Access

The lock is powered by two good-quality AAA batteries and can provide up to 15,000 operations under normal conditions. Actual battery performance will depend on usage frequency, battery quality, temperature and maintenance.

When battery power becomes low, the red LED flashes three times before the lock opens. The batteries should be replaced promptly, although the lock should continue to provide approximately 100 additional operations after the warning begins.

If the internal batteries become exhausted, a PP3 battery can be placed against the external contact points surrounding the indicator LEDs. The authorised Master User Card can then be presented to release the lock and provide access to the internal battery compartment.

KL1050 RFID Locker Lock Applications

The KL1050 is suitable for commercial and public facilities that require convenient electronic access without issuing mechanical locker keys.

• Gyms and fitness centres
• Leisure centres and swimming pools
• Schools, colleges and universities
• Offices and staff changing facilities
• Healthcare staff areas
• Retail and hospitality staff rooms
• Spas, hotels and visitor facilities

Private mode is generally used for permanently allocated staff, student or personal storage. Public mode is generally used where lockers are selected and released by different users throughout the day.

• Door material and thickness
