Overview
Traka key management, done properly
Even with access control on the doors, most buildings still run on physical keys: master keys, vehicle keys, cabinet keys and keys for equipment. Traka, part of ASSA ABLOY, makes intelligent key cabinets that lock each key in place and only release it to an authorized user, with a record of who took it and when it came back.
We help you size the cabinet, set up users and permissions, connect it to your access control credentials where supported, and mount and wire it on site. Traka also makes intelligent lockers for laptops, radios, scanners and other shared equipment.

Barrier-free requirements in Alberta
Alberta uses the National Building Code – 2023 Alberta Edition, in force since May 1, 2024. Its accessibility requirements are in Section 3.8, Accessibility. Here's what it means for doors.
- Door hardwareSentence 3.8.3.6.(4) and Clause 3.8.3.8.(1)(b)
- Handles, latches and locks must be mounted 900 to 1 100 mm above the floor and work with one hand in a closed fist, without tight grasping or twisting. In practice that means levers, push/pull hardware or panic bars rather than knobs.
- Power door operatorsArticle 3.8.2.7.
- Power door operators are required at barrier-free entrances (including the inner door of a vestibule), at many doors along a barrier-free path to suites or rooms served by a public corridor, and at the entrance to any washroom with a barrier-free water closet. There are exceptions, so check how they apply to your building.
This is a plain-language summary, not the code itself. Requirements depend on the building's occupancy, size and whether the work is new construction or an alteration. Confirm them with your designer and the local authority having jurisdiction. More on barrier-free code.
