Electronic lock system

Videx

The CyberLock system incorporates mechanical lock hardware that already is present in school buildings. Cylinders inside the existing locks just need to be replaced with the CyberLock electronic cylinders. This is done without the expensive costs of hard-wiring and structural changes. The cylinder cannot be picked, and the electronic key cannot be duplicated. A facility manager can audit access to sensitive areas because both the lock and key store a record of openings and denied entries.
