Unlocking the World: Exploring the Power of Multiple Locks

Locks have been an essential part of human civilization for centuries, providing security and peace of mind.

While locks are typically associated with a single key opening a single lock, there is a solution where multiple locks can be passed together, allowing multiple locks to work on the same key.

At SDS London, we take pride in our ability to provide this unique service in-house, also allowing us to cut additional keys as requested.

In this blog, we will delve into the concept of passing locks and explore the benefits and possibilities it brings. We will also discuss master keying systems.

Understanding the Concept of Passing Locks

The concept of passing locks, also known as keyed alike, is based on the idea that multiple locks can be opened by the same key. This allows for more convenient access control, as one key can potentially unlock various doors or compartments.

By aligning the internal workings of different locks, we can create a system where a single key is capable of opening and closing multiple locks.

Convenience and Efficiency

Passing locks offers a significant convenience factor. With a single key, you can access multiple areas, eliminating the need to carry around a large bunch of keys.

This is especially beneficial for business owners, or anyone who needs to manage multiple locks on a daily basis. Needing only one key simplifies the process and saves valuable time.

Master Keying

Master keying is a lock system that allows for different keys to open multiple locks. It is commonly used in buildings with multiple rooms or areas that require different levels of access. With master keying, individual keys can be assigned to open specific locks, while a master key is capable of opening all the locks within the system. This allows for convenient access control and reduces the need for carrying multiple keys. Master keying is commonly implemented in hotels, offices, and apartment complexes, providing a flexible and efficient way to manage access to various areas.
