Abloy wall PDs Guide

January 23, 2024

Please can all nurses take note of the information regarding their Abloy keys.

Nurses should keep an eye on battery levels according to the PD display and get a battery change when prompted. Nurses should also be aware that keys need charging daily and information contained on the key will be downloaded for auditing purposes and firmware updates will take place. This means that the time taken to charge will be longer if the key is not charged every day.

Keys are not transferrable and pharmacy are de-activating keys allocated to former employees. If nurses did not get their key direct from pharmacy, i.e. from another nurse or your manager, then your key may stop working and this needs reporting to Pharmacy as soon as possible

Note : Nurses need to take good care of their keys, the cost to replace a key is around £100. Locks cost even more, from £300 to £500 each so please treat them with care to ensure they last as long as possible.
