Here are seven everyday locations where these indicator-equipped cylindrical locks make a real difference.

1. Educational Facilities & Classrooms

Creating Safer, Smarter Learning Environments

These locks align with PASS (Partner Alliance for Safer Schools) Tier 1 guidelines, making them an essential part of today’s school safety strategies.

2. Commercial & Public Restrooms

Enhancing User Privacy and Operational Efficiency

3. Nursing & Lactation Rooms

Supporting Inclusivity with Practical Privacy
As more workplaces provide designated spaces for nursing mothers, privacy is key. Cylindrical locks with status indicators protect these areas from unintended interruptions, offering peace of mind and supporting a culture of inclusivity and respect.

4. Retail Fitting Rooms

Delivering a Better Customer Experience
