Multi-Lock blanking
In Multi-Locks, unused padlock positions are blanked off. This is conducted during installation or at any time in the locks life by the insertion of the supplied stainless padlock blanking bolt into the pre-tapped hole in the padlock pin. The tapped hole is accessed by sliding the pin to be blanked to the catch end of the lock. The lock to the left has had three padlock pins blanked.
Blanking can also be used to secure a site immediately after installation but before all padlocks are installed. With the ability to add or remove blanks throughout the locks life full flexibility and future proofing is ensured.

To remove the blank at a later date and add a new user the following procedure is adopted:
Firstly, the blank cover is removed.
By default this requires the removal of the screws. To continue any further, an authorised user must first have removed their padlock and pin. This last requirement is a design feature that restricts the removal of the blank by unauthorised individuals. |
|
With a users padlock and pin removed the blanked padlock pins are free to slide laterally.
This allows one of the blanked pins to be aligned with the blank removal hole. The padlock pin blank can now be extracted using the supplied allen key.
The cover should now be replaced.
New blanks can be installed from the catch opening or by reversing the procedure detailed above. |
