There are a wide range of solutions available to keep your keys secure Managing access to your facilities is the first step in keeping your business secure. For operations that rely on keyed locks, key cabinets can provide storage, control and management of all keys easily and efficiently. When selecting a key cabinet and key ID system, it is important to balance your current needs with what you might need for the future. Lund Key Cabinets range in storage capacity and size, and are available for as few as 10 keys up to as many as 3,300. You can choose between wall, table or floor models with one or two tag systems that include tags, receipts and index book for record keeping. Lock core cabinets For locations with high traffic where locks are changed often, lock core cabinets were developed to handle storage of lock cores along with the keys. They are also available in a range of capacities, from 20 to 125 cores. Custom capacity core / key cabinets can be created to your specifications – for example, you can order a cabinet for 50 cores and 200 keys. When managing access to automobiles, keeping track of keys is a high priority. Automotive key cabinets are built specifically for larger automotive keys, in 60 -240 key capacities. Cabinets are available with either fixed or removable panels. Electronic key cabinets When key security is a high priority, electronic key cabinets can be supplied with proximity readers, keypads or fingerprint readers to limit access to the cabinet for additional security. Electronic key cabinets have capacity for 350 – 500 keys. They can be supplied standalone, or programmed through a data transfer device or online computer. Standalone and online options include data management software, five preprogrammed cards and a plug in power supply.  The standalone version comes with a data transfer device and the online option comes with a remotely programmed online controller. Key tags Tagging keys makes management simple. Specialty key tags for cabinets can be ordered with custom numbering or lettering and are available in plastic, brass and aluminum. Plastic key tags are available in a variety of colours, which is important for differentiating key sets and helpful for easy scanning.  Standard tags for a two tag system are made from a durable white or red fiber-plastic material for durability and longevity.

Weatherstrip, gaskets and thresholds to seal any door opening Weatherstrip, gasket and thresholds are the main mechanical hardware options available to seal doors. K.M. Thomas offers a wide range of mechanical door hardware to secure and seal any architectural door opening. In addition we offer a number of specialty door sealing products. Unique weatherstrip choices are available to suit special requirements. Ideal for schools and childcare facilities, Finger Guard prevents fingers from being crushed in the hinge area of a door. It consists of an internal spring which applies tension to a heavy, woven polyethylene fabric.  The fabric moves with the door as the door opens and closes preventing fingers from being trapped and injured. Anti-ligature smoke gasketing was developed to prevent individuals in various institutions from strangling or hanging themselves with the door gasketing materials. It is designed to break apart if attempts are made to hang or strangle one’s self.  Anti-Ligature gasketing retains the same sealing abilities as standard smoke gasketing, protecting against sound, light, air and smoke.  It is available in 300’ rolls or precut, shorter lengths. Thresholds help to seal the bottom of doors and keep the elements out. K.M. Thomas offers a wide variety of thresholds including custom fabricated thresholds with custom widths, heights and lengths to accommodate most requirements.  A new addition to our offerings is a sports floor threshold which is installed between concrete and wood floors. Another new product is the PVC door shoe with soft vinyl fins. Used in conjunction with a threshold, this door shoe restricts the amount of light coming through the bottom of the door while still allowing air to flow through.  This product was produced for the hospitality sector and is used when air needs to pass beneath the door but light and sound need to be restricted. We carry varieties of weatherstrip and thresholds to suit every application. Please send me an email or give us a call for more information. Kathy Dunne K.M. Thomas Company Ltd.
