Utility and control cabinet keys are designed to work across a range of products, fitting locks made by different manufacturers and valves of a wide variety of components across industries.
A lot of services or facilities products do not have a standard lock, key and handle like a door in a house might have.
Instead they have a block shaped lock (often a cube or triangular prism) that is opened by a bladeless key.
Depending on the shapes of head a utility and control-cabinet key has, its jobs can include bleeding unwanted air from radiators…
…unlocking service cabinets to access the control panels of, for example, air conditioning systems or switchboards…
…unlocking rubbish bins and other public facilities…
…and regulating the flow of water through a tap which doesn’t have a handle.
