ARRONE bathroom Turn & Release with Hex Key Override
An increasing number of public buildings now require more secure bathroom cubicle locks and for supervised facilities , the ARRONE Bathroom Turn & Release with Hex Key Override makes an ideal solution . Specifically , this lock has a hex key operated external release , meaning it cannot be overridden and unlocked using a coin or other item with a flat edge . Instead , a designated key holder has access to the external release hex key ( sold separately ) in case emergency access is required .
This is ideal for applications such as leisure facilities and public spaces , particularly in education facilities where the Department for Education stipulates that toilet doors in schools and colleges should have a key release to the external side of the door . It also outlines that the toilet lock should be easily operated from the inside with a single motion , such as a turn lever mechanism .
