A flexible solution that saves you money
A-Series™ Duo allows you to operate two highly sophisticated A-Series™ with Display One-Time Code (OTC) locks independently, utilizing just one keypad. Designed for applications where dual authentication is required or user access is limited, A-Series™ Duo is the ideal solution for applications such as:
- Island ATMs with two vault areas
- CEN 4 safes requiring two EN1300 Class B locks
- Vault doors and rooms
- Kiosks with multiple compartments
With A-Series™ Duo, you don’t need to purchase multiple locking solutions to secure a secondary door. A-Series™ Duo is a flexible solution, allowing you to secure a primary and secondary door - all in one easy-to-use solution – saving you money!
With two locks connected, A-Series™ Duo allows you to easily control vault door access through one of three modes of operation.
Mode 1
2 Doors, 1 Exclusive Entry Lock Operation
- Select Lock 1 or Lock 2 to perform normal operation
- Only one of the locks may be open at any given time
- When either of the locks is in open position, you cannot deselect the lock until the lock is secure.
Ideal Application: Locks are installed on two doors but only 1 door should be accessed at any given time

Mode 2
1 Door, 2 Locks Extended Operation
- While Lock 1 is open, you can deselect the lock and select Lock 2 to perform an opening.
- Lock 1 has an extended (45 second) opening and extended door switch detection time. This allows time needed to deselect Lock 1 and select Lock 2 after Lock 1 is opened.
- The BPI wires from Lock 2 are connected to the door switch wires of Lock 1 which prevent the closing of Lock 1 until Lock 2 is secure.
Ideal application: Two locks are used to control the opening of one door.

Mode 3
2 Doors, 2 Independent Lock Operation
- Allows for use of 2 locks as separate entities. You do not need to use the lock in sequence.
- While a lock is open you can deselect the lock and select the opposite lock to perform an opening. The difference between mode 2 and mode 3 is that the primary lock opening is normally timed.
Ideal application: Two doors that operate independent of one another
