Locks that Cohere has used. A regular door lock that uses a key. I don't recommend this. It's cumbersome to issue keys, get the keys back, remember to lock and unlock the door. If you're staffed all the time, you don't have to worry about this. Cohere is largely unstaffed. _________________________________ http://www.amazon.com/Schlage-FE575-PLY-626-ELA/dp/B001COEZTU/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1401812326&sr=8-2&keywords=schlage+keyless
For interior door that members use to get in to the coworking space. Pros-easy to program, easy to use, keypad lights up Cons-it relocks every time the door closes so members have to code in every time (considering our patio, breakroom, conference room and bathrooms on on the other side of the door they're coding in A LOT) ______________________________ http://www.amazon.com/Schlage-Wireless-Keypad-Lock-Nickel/dp/B001NEK6JM/ref=sr_1_11?ie=UTF8&qid=1401812418&sr=8-11&keywords=schlage+keyless+commercial We had the link-less version of this on our exterior door at our first space. It was easy to program. Each member got their own code so I could delete them when they left and you could put a code in at the start of the day that would keep the door open until you put the code back in at night. Pros-pretty easy to program, I liked the continuous pass through feature Cons-only works well if staff can remember to unlock/lock it each day _________________________________ http://www.amazon.com/Codelock-0460-SS-Narrow-CL0460/dp/B0082WO7GQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1401812556&sr=8-1&keywords=narrow+stile+codelock This is what we just installed on our interior aluminum storefront doors. This is a mechanical lock which makes it cheaper but you can only have ONE code at a time and you really have to press the numbers to make them work. Pros-no batteries or fancy bells and whistles. The cheapest storefront narrow stile lock you can get. It looks nice Cons-you have to remove the lock completely to change the code <---yikes. It's best to have a real locksmith install this badboy. Keypad doesn't light up and our hallway is dark-ish. It got installed kind of low on the door so you really have to bend over to punch in the numbers. _________________________________ http://www.amazon.com/Alarm-Lock-Trilogy-Standard-Cylinder/dp/B001IADJ4A/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1401812968&sr=8-1&keywords=dl2800 This guy is a show-off. You can program it 6 ways to Sunday but you never will because it's ridiculous. Pro-get your landlord to pay for this one :) It's commercial quality, solid and works like a charm. You can program it a thousand different ways if you have a degree in commercial code programming. Cons-you have to have a disk in a computer that actually has a disk drive and then hook up your computer to the lock with a little cable. You change everything in the computer program then push the info into the lock via the cable. I have done this exactly 3 times in 2 years and plan to never do it again unless some crackhead unjoins Cohere and we fear for our security. If that happens, we have bigger problems then just our door lock.
