MUL-T-LOCK PROVIDES PEACE OF MIND AT
COLLEGE OF PSYCHIC STUDIES
Mul-T-Lock’s patented MT5 key &
cylinder platform has been installed at
the College of Psychic Studies by ATCL
Locksmiths to restrict the unauthorised
distribution of keys and ensure its
security can operate from a single master
key system, without compromising on
the 19th century architecture.
ATCL Locksmiths recommended Mul-TLock’s MT5 patented key & cylinder range,
to provide enhanced key security and strong
tamper-resistance. The system has now
been fitted throughout the College, without
impacting on the aesthetics - only authorised
personnel can now distribute keys.
Jackie Coe at The College of Psychic
Studies said: “ATCL demonstrated the
advantages of MT% and the Trustees were
especially impressed with the flexibility
of the master key system and its ability
to incorporate all of our key access
requirements.”
MT5 is the first cylinder in the UK to be
supported by a unique key authorisation
magnetic strip card to ensure tight control
of key duplication.
Ollie Farrow at ATCL Locksmiths added:
“The College presented a number of
challenges but MT5 offered a cost-effective,
clean and simple to install solution.”
