Code Handle: Assa Abloy’s Pin Lock Secures Private Doors

Assa Abloy’s Code Handle access control system offers first-line security for private doors in public spaces. The four-digit code-operated electronic handle locks without any wires, expensive hardware or software, mechanical keys or changes to existing doors.

“Code Handle is unique in comparison to common code door locks: it has the code function and battery incorporated inside its handle, so you don’t need to make extra modifications to your door”, explains Lars Angelin, Business Development Manager for Code Handle at Assa Abloy EMEA.

When a user closes the door behind them, Code Handle locks itself - from inside, the handle opens freely. The door handle is simple to install and retrofit. Two screws fit a new Code Handle to almost any interior door, with left- or right-hand opening. There is no need to cable the door, connect it to mains, or pay a specialist installer. It is also fire accredited.

Code Handle works together with standard lock hardware. Users can keep their existing cylinder or lock mechanism and just change the handle. Two standard batteries slot inside the Code Handle, and typically last 30,000 lock/unlock cycles before needing a replacement.
