KD KD KD KD
Keyed Different
Each lock is opened by its own unique key which does not open any other lock
in the set – complying with the “One lock, one employee, one key” mantra.
KA
Keyed Alike
All padlocks in the set are opened by the same key so only one key is necessary
to open numerous padlocks – for employees who need many locks, they
still only have one key.
Easily implement a keying system to
fit your facility’s needs!
STEP 1: CHOOSING A KEY SYSTEM
1 - Determine the number of
employees that you require on this
system.
2 - Determine how many employees
will need to receive more than one
safety padlock for lockout. Those
employees could get KA (Keyed
Alike) padlocks.
3 - Choose one of the following
Safety Keying Systems (KD, KA, MK,
GMK).
STEP 2: MAINTAIN THE INTEGRITY
OF YOUR KEY SYSTEM
To help prevent duplicate keys from
jeopardizing your lockout program.
Master Lock offers LifeGuard:
a FREE key charting service that
maintains a list of all key codes built
for and assigned to a specific site or
facility.

MK
Master Keyed
A master key opens all locks within the system while each lock also has its
own unique key – allows for responsible removal of improperly placed or
forgotten lockouts according to your emergency notification policy.
LIFEGUARD REINFORCES
SAFETY GOLDEN RULES:
1 OPERATOR = 1 PADLOCK = 1 KEY.
This program helps ensure that future
padlocks are produced with the next
sequence of key codes so that
NO DUPLICATION will occur in your
facility unless otherwise authorized.
