Frequently Asked Questions
Why use key capture?
It prevents accidental unlocking. The user can't leave with the key (and the door unlocked) unless they actively re-lock the lever and rotate the key back to the removable position.
Is this the same as classroom function?
No. Classroom function (996L) allows the key to be removed in either locked or unlocked position. Key Capture forces the user to relock before removing the key.
What lever styles are available?
03, 06, and 17 lever styles are stocked for the Key Capture variant.
