Why not just put it into passage mode and be done with it? SMH
Plus the old holes from the ilco that must have been on there.
This stuff drives me crazy
This is my life:
looking at door frames, room placards and anywhere else someone might write a code.
trying to convince people to not share codes.
keeping track of codes for 1000 plus doors using keypads.
No, you may not have 12345, nor 54321 nor any other number that can be easily discovered.
WHY? WHY?!!! THATS A $400 ELECTRONIC LEVER THAT IS NOW THE EQUIVALENT OF A $10 PASSAGE LEVER!
THE HORROR!
Reminds me of a popular push button lock that came with a default combination set at the factory. As I was setting up a demo at a local police department, an officer walked up to my mounted sample,tried 2-4 and 3 which didn’t work, and sand told me the lock was broken…
You can buy that for about $300.00 but the MSRP is over $800.00 Why would anyone spend that kind of $$ for a passage lever?
I always see this on an office hallway Washroom door where they tried to prevent the public from entry only to be told by building management that they have had numerous complaints from other suites on the same floor . And the viola a $300-500 passage lock plus installation and service call. Oh the shame of it all
That lock is also available with a Prox credential reader well worth the couple of bucks additional and the sense of being safe!! Knowing your family and business is priceless!! I’m sure no one will give an ID Credential or the key card to someone.
Alarm Lock PDL3000 or PL3000 series well worth it and manufactured in Amityville Long Island NY!
Hay it’s for those with dementia,
Leave my bathroom alone
I know a place that had a 4-digit code for the elevator. It was written in pencil in Roman numerals on the side of the surface light fixture overhead.
They could have at least written it on their hand 🙂
This could be a door to an electrical or mechanical room that is located inside a secure area. The old lock broke and they replaced it with a spare they had on site. They then wrote down the code for convenience.
Necessity will win when you don’t have the luxury of time.
