Simpler maintenance access. Without replacing what still works.

Give your team a familiar way to access the services they maintain.

Upgrade the locks on suitable existing radiator covers, IPS panels and maintenance access panels, with one key across installations included in your agreed standard.

Start improving access without waiting for a refurbishment or replacing serviceable installations.

Discuss your estate

Your team has a job to do. Finding the right key should not become another one.

A routine maintenance task should be straightforward. But the radiator cover needs one key, the IPS panel another, and someone needs to explain how the next access panel opens.

Your team returns to the workshop, tracks down a colleague or comes back later.

Across wards and buildings, those interruptions add up.

You want staff to arrive prepared and get on with the work. Yet replacing complete covers and panels is difficult to justify when the installations themselves still do their job.

Waiting for a refurbishment leaves the frustration in place.

Without a practical route to upgrade, your team continues working around the same assortment of locks, keys and tools.

Each maintenance visit can bring another search or avoidable interruption. Meanwhile, replacements and smaller projects can introduce further locking systems.

The estate becomes harder to bring into line, while serviceable covers and panels remain tied to access arrangements that make your team’s work more complicated.

A targeted lock retrofit gives you a way to assess improvements within your existing estate.

Keep the installations. Give your team a simpler working day.

Picture your team arriving at an upgraded panel with the right key and a familiar way to open it.

They can access the services, complete the task and secure the panel again, using the same approach as other installations included in your standard.

Suitable covers and panels remain in place, helping you direct your budget towards the access problem.

You can establish a repeatable approach, then extend it as funding and maintenance programmes allow.

Fewer different keys to manage.
More consistency for your staff.
A practical route towards a more manageable estate.

Three steps from existing installations to a practical upgrade.

Assess what you have.

Send photographs of your existing locks and the covers or panels they secure.

We make an initial compatibility assessment. Where retrofit appears suitable, we attend site to survey the installations and identify any changes needed to apertures, clearances or internal framework.

Test the arrangement.

We produce a sample for installation and testing on your existing cover or panel.

Your team can check the fit, assess operation during everyday work and give feedback. You approve the arrangement before manufacture and supply for a wider rollout.

Upgrade with support.

Once approved, we manufacture and supply the locks for the agreed scope.

Your contractors can contact us with installation questions. When the work is complete, we attend site to check correct fitting and sign off the locking installation.

Discuss your estate

Start with a trial your team can judge.

You do not need to commit to an estate-wide programme to find out whether the approach works for you.

Start with one area or a small group of suitable installations. Let your team use the system, understand the installation requirements and assess the improvement before deciding what comes next.

Your wider plans can then be based on experience within your own setting.
