Coded door handle

Codehandle is a cost effective way to restrict access to areas such as private offices, storerooms and other locations in light commercial and residential properties, where convenience is the main priority and where access is restricted without having to distribute and monitor keys.

Codehandle is easy to fit, with no wires, cables or specialist skill required. It provides an easy way to convert an existing door, to a digitally controlled door. It has both manual and automatic locking modes. The device has one master code, used for managing users and settings, and nine user codes that can be changed an unlimited number of times.

Entering an incorrect code five times blocks the handle for three minutes, long enough to deter the opportunist intruder. The lock-out is removed by entering a correct user code.

The handle provides both visual and acoustic feedback to operation. Acoustic feedback can be switched off with use of the master code. The product is powered by two CRV, 3 V lithium batteries, which provide approximately 100 000 operations. A low battery warning will begin at 500 remaining operations, and codes will not be lost when the batteries are removed.

To facilitate the mechanical override feature, UNION recommends that the handle is used with a Euro standard lock with cylinder to latch functionality.
