Cabinet locks: A new alternative

When it comes to security, size doesn’t matter: you may have a small enclosure—from a cash drawer to a mobile drug cart—but still need a lock solution that offers big-time features. And that’s where the new RCI 3511 cabinet lock comes in.

The 3511 boasts a holding force of 180 lbs. and is suitable for enclosures with either wood or metal finishes. It also features a mechanical override in case of emergency, with the benefit that the override requires minor drilling, making it impossible for someone to use the override without being noticed. (Note that the drilling does not harm the lock.)

iButton technology is incorporated to handle up to 160 different users, and the 3511 has an innovative key-management system that makes programming simple. Plus, because it’s battery-operated, the lock doesn’t have to rely on an external power source.

The battery itself is good for up to three years/350,000 operations. Then, to warn users about low-battery life, an LED light comes on when about 50,000 operations remain.

RCI, formerly known as Rutherford Controls, is a long-time industry leader in electric-locking hardware, and the 3511 looks to be another winner from this established company. To find out more about how the 3511 can meet your security needs contact us today at 734-421-1230 or visit:
