What Is a Key Trap?

A key trap is a key retention device installed in a lock cylinder that physically retains the key when inserted, requiring a second key or special tool to release it. Used in vending machines, coin-operated equipment, hotel minibars, and applications where the operator must not remove the key during service.

Key Trap Applications

  • Vending machines — prevents operator from leaving with the service key
  • Coin-operated laundry equipment
  • Hotel minibars and in-room safes
  • Gaming and amusement equipment
  • Cash drawers and coin mechanisms
  • Utility meters and municipal equipment

FAQs

What is the difference between a key trap and a key retainer? A key trap physically locks the key in place until released by a secondary action. A key retainer simply holds the key from falling out.

Are key traps interchangeable between lock brands? Key traps are typically brand and model specific. Call 888-881-4245 to confirm compatibility.
