Peaks Key Control Systems are the most cost effective, patented high security key control systems
available.
The Kaba Peaks Global high security cylinder family retrofits most Grade 1 and Grade 2 hardware
sold in the US today. Available in key-in-knob, mortise, rim, and interchangeable core configurations. Kaba
Peaks Global provides the unique ability to key Peaks Global standard cylinders and Peaks Classic interchange-
able core cylinders alike so one Global key will operate both styles of hardware. A series of discs located along
both sides of the plug prevent unauthorized keys from operating the cylinder. Special nodes on the key interact
with the discs within the plug that are required for proper cylinder operation. Since the uncut key blank itself is
patented, Kaba controls blank manufacture and distribution.
