About the 700 Basic
The LA GARD 700 Basic is the updated version of the long-running LA GARD Basic, the lock that brought high-security electronic safe locking to homes as well as businesses at an affordable price. Like every LA GARD 700 series lock, it includes EMD technology to counter electronic manipulation.
It is the first 700 series lock to pair the keypad and lock automatically, which makes it simple for a technician to fit to a new safe or as a replacement. It uses a 6-digit combination and the same trusted commands as earlier LA GARD Basic models, and can hold a Manager and a User code.
There is no screen: a valid code is confirmed with two beeps and two flashes, and you then have 4 seconds to turn the handle before the lock re-secures. Four wrong codes in a row lock the keypad for 5 minutes. The lock runs on two 9V alkaline batteries, which sit in a drawer in the keypad, and keeps your codes during a battery change.
Auto-pairing
The keypad and lock pair automatically, so fitting and replacement are simple.
EMD technology
Built in to counter electronic manipulation, as on every LA GARD 700 series lock.
Familiar commands
A 6-digit combination using the same commands as earlier LA GARD Basic models.
