January 1952
Frank Best, Founder and President of Best Lock Corporation, revealed a new Electro-Combination Lock/Alarm System at the Plant Maintenance & Engineering show. Frank Best was the inventor of the interchangeable core master keyed locking system. He realized early on that a keyless access control system, that allowed access management along with simple reprograming, was the future.
The Original Design
His original design provided up to three individual codes, door status alarm and battery back-up. This design sold for $350.00 per door, the equivalent of $2,300.00 today. Only 14 wires were needed. Installation could be done by the building owner in 8-10 hours.
