Traffic Enclosure Lock
ABLOY USA is offering a universal hybrid me- chanical/electromechanical product with the in- troduction of its new Traffic Enclosure Locks. The 75481 series provides several key access control options using less cylinder and offering greater accountability. The need to secure traffic criti- cal infrastructure is becoming more complicated due to new traffic cabinet technology. As more intelligent transportation systems find their way to market and are placed near busy roadsides, more states’ Departments of Transportation are inclined to find better methods to secure their cabinets. Complicating security concerns is that most need to be accessed at various times by qualified contractors and agencies for mainte- nance, repair and upgrade or timing adjustments. With only a one-key option, potential red flags are raised with access accountability once a key is lost or stolen.
