San Leandro, CA - Access Hardware Supply has the new Trilogy^® Prox Locks by Alarm Lock currently in stock at its warehouse.

The latest product from Alarm Lock is a combination Proximity and Digital Lock and is perfect for universities, homes and businesses. Its 2000 user codes can be individually programmed to use a card only, code only, or for the highest security-both card and code. A batch enroll feature allows many cards to be quickly assimilated into the software via the lock without the use of a PC. Card data can also be added to software by means of the lock, card reader module or PC. This product is fingertip (keypad) or Windows PC-programmable.

One of the main features of the Trilogy^® Prox Locks is that it is equipped with a real time clock that allows for programming of up to 500 planned events and holiday schedules. This product contains an advanced "Smart" application that enables programming of scheduled events formatable to lock/unlock, or disable/enable users, with four built-in time schedules. The Audit Trail with Time/Date Stamp feature provides a printable record of all electronic activity including both lock and unlock events, program mode changes, user entry, keypad lockout, remote release events or unauthorized code attempts.

Some advantages of the Trilogy Prox Locks are its four programming levels, four user groups, three-to six-digit codes, and a one-time service code or total user lockout code. The "First-Manager-In" controls the passage mode, group of users and relay options. A tri-colored LED indicator shows code acceptance or denial as well as a low battery condition. A keypad lockout feature that activates after several attempts to "guess" codes is available for added security purposes.

The Trilogy^® Prox Locks consist of a solid brass tumbler cylinder and an all-metal keypad that are weatherproof. It is a Grade 1 heavy-duty cylindrical lockset with a UL listing to the 10C Positive Pressure Specification. Its latchbolt is UL listed and 3-hour fire rated and is FCC certified with ADA compliant levers. The product is available in special order finishes as well as brass and chrome.
