Don't Know What Cross Keying is?

In a standard master key system you can have thousands of change keys with master and sub masters all without using more than one master pin per chamber if it's layed out right.

But when you want to make more than one "Change Key" open the same door you'll need to use more than one master pin in one or more chambers. That's called "Cross Keying".

Once you start stacking multiple master pins in a chamber things can go wrong real fast if you don't have a way to control it.

Watch the video to see how it's used
