A–2 Stanley OMNILOCK Illustrated Parts Catalog
Fob
A small device that can be carried on a key ring, has an integrated circuit to
which data is encoded, and is used to activate a lock.
Hand of door
The swing direction of the door as viewed from the outside of the door. A
right-handed (RH) door is hinged on the right and swings inward. A left-
handed (LH) door is hinged on the left and swings inward. If either of these
doors swings outward, it becomes a right-hand reverse bevel (RHRB) door, or
a left-hand reverse bevel (LHRB) door respectively.
Interchangeable
core
A figure-8 shaped device that contains all mechanical parts for a masterkeyed
system. The interchangeable core can be removed by a special control key and
can be recombinated without disassembling the lock. See also
Figure-8.
Key override
An optional feature that enables an authorized user (in an emergency) to
bypass all electronic locking features, and open the lock with a mechanical
key.
Latch status
sensor
A sensor that monitors whether the latchbolt is extended or retracted. This
sensor can be used in combination with the door status sensor to determine
whether the door is fully secure.
Lock function
The way a lock operates.
Magnetic stripe
card
A credit-card shaped device that has a magnetic strip to which data is encoded
and is used to access a lock.
Mortise cylinder
A threaded lock cylinder that screws directly into the lock case. A key-driven
rotating cam, attached to the back, drives the locking mechanism.
Mortise
A rectangular cavity cut into the edge of a door. Also can mean the act of
making such a cavity.
Mortise lock
A lock that fits into a mortise. Other locks fit into bored holes or mount to a
surface. See also

Proximity card
A credit-card shaped device that has an integrated circuit to which data is
encoded and is used to activate a lock.
Removable core
See Interchangeable core.
Request-to-exit
switch
A switch that allows the user to exit without setting off an alarm. WAMS Locks
can be supplied with an internal request-to-exit switch. Turning the inside
lever actuates the switch and, when wired to an alarm system, sends a signal
to disable or sound an alarm, start a timer, and so forth.
Tailpiece
A part that extends from the back of the cylinder and engages an exit device
mechanism.
Template
A precise, detailed hole pattern that serves as a guide for the mortising and
drilling of doors and frames.
Wire harness
A group of wires bundled together with connectors at either end.
