Schools are extremely busy places, meaning that administrative staff often have their work cut out trying to manage all of the day to day goings on.
Amongst the primary concerns for school staff and students is the security of locker facilities. Forgotten locker codes and malicious tampering not only frustrate students, it disturbs the smooth-running of the school environment and creates added burdens for administrators.
At Lowe & Fletcher, we have extensive experience working alongside educational institutions to provide first class locking solutions that enhance security and optimize efficiency.

The 2800C Lock with Key-Controlled Code Change
Lowe & Fletcher is proud to unveil our new 2800C Combination Lock. Designed specifically to address the challenge of school locker security, this innovative locking system allows you to take full control of locker locks with its unique key-controlled code change function.
This feature ensures that only designated staff can set and modify locker codes, removing the issue of students tampering with lockers or codes being forgotten altogether. In the event of a lost code or a code being tampered with, simply check your allocation list or use the patented code finder function.
The 2800C is designed to save schools valuable time and resources. Preset codes can be assigned to lockers upon allocation, streamlining the initial setup process. Additionally, the lock allows for the creation of a dedicated code database, facilitating the easy reissue of forgotten codes without manual resets.

- A unique anti-attack feature: Renders the lock inoperable during tampering attempts, safeguarding student belongings.

A padlock is attached to the hole within the latch lock, to secure the lock and prevent it from being opened.
