Master Lock reintroduces Edge Key Control program

By Healthcare Facilities Today


MILWAUKEE, WIS. – Master Lock® Company LLC has updated their exclusive and patented Edge™ Key Control program with new options and enhanced support materials.  Customers with high employee turnover and multiple security points can take advantage of this cost-effective solution available on the vast line of industry-leading American Lock® solid body padlocks and Master Lock ProSeries® and Commercial grade padlocks.  

Edge Key Control customers now have several important benefits at hand to enhance security.  The patented keying system allows for total control over key duplication and protects against unauthorized duplicate keys, and Edge is available only from Master Lock authorized locations.  At about $10 per lock, it can be retrofit into existing locksets at significantly less cost than other competitor lock systems.

“Edge gives you the power to implement a single key control system for your facility where it can be used on door locks and gates, portable equipment, fleet vehicles and for other purposes,” remarked Kevin Gannon, Master Lock’s Senior Product Manager for Commercial Security.  “It’s very much a turnkey system that is affordably priced and provides options for future expansion and system updates.  And by limiting access to the key blanks, an authorized Master Lock provider can duplicate the keys only with your approval.”

Gannon noted that Master Lock will offer five separate Edge Key Control programs.  Locksmiths are advised to contact their representatives for more information. For more information about this program, visit www.masterlock.com/edge.  For further story details, contact Bob Wolff with The Drucker Group (bob@druckergroup.com) at 224-532-1808.
