Borg BL5701KSCECP Lever Keypad Only - Key Override - Easicode Pro - Satin Chrome
At A Glance
The Borg BL5701KSCECP Lever Keypad Only is the outside keypad and flat bar lever, with its built-in key override, from Borg's BL5701 Easicode Pro lock in satin chrome, sold on its own as a replacement keypad only. It matches the Borg BL5701SCECP - see Compatible Borg Locks.
Like every lock in our mechanical digital range, it needs no batteries, wiring or app. Borg builds the BL5700 Easicode Pro as a heavy duty keypad for hospitals and other busy buildings: staff use the code, which changes on the door, and a key opens the door whenever the code is not known.
Usually ships same day if ordered before 11am AEST (excludes weekends and Queensland public holidays).
This listing is the outside keypad, flat bar lever and key override only. A working lock also needs the inside handle, latch, strike plate, key override spindle and fixing screws, which come with the complete Borg BL5701 lock - order that instead if there is no Borg lock on the door yet.
The key override cylinder sits in the keypad lever itself. To open by key, put the key in, turn it away from the door edge - clockwise on a right-hand door, anti-clockwise on a left-hand door - push or pull the door open, and take the key out with the door open. The key works whether or not anyone knows the code, so a supervisor, cleaner or emergency service can always get in, and Borg notes that keying the cylinders alike lets senior staff move through a building on one key instead of a list of codes. The cylinder is a Silca YA5 6-pin, supplied with keys. The override relies on Borg's sprung key override spindle (BL5701SPINDLE) - cut it too short on the keypad side and the key stops working while the code still does. The in-lever key override on the BL5701 and why key override can be important.
With Easicode Pro (ECP) the keypad stays on the door - Borg puts the change at about 10 seconds. With the door open, enter the current code, put the change key over the code change button, turn it 90 degrees clockwise and hold it in, press C, then enter the new code twice. Release the key, turn it back and remove it, then press C or turn the lever to set the new code - and test it five times before the door closes. The change key is not in the box: it is the BL5000ECPCK. The code change deactivation plug (block pin) that is in the box stops anyone re-coding the keypad on the door once your code is set. Step by step in the FAQ below, how the Borg on-door change works and the 5000 series in action. Never force the change key - here is why.
Enter the code, turn the lever and press F: the lever stays free turning and withdraws the latch, so the door opens without a code. To lock it again, turn the lever and press C. If you never want the function, the free passage deactivation plug fits into the F slot on the back of the keypad and switches it off until the keypad is taken off the door. Passage mode explained and free passage on commercial doors.
The keypad and key override work entirely mechanically: no batteries, no wiring and no app, so there is nothing to go flat. How a mechanical digital lock works.
Borg designs the BL5700 Easicode Pro as a heavy duty key override keypad for hospitals and similar busy environments, and cycle tests it to 100,000 operations. The quick on-door code change makes regular code changes practical, and the key covers the staff who do not have the code. For the heaviest traffic with an SFIC key override, Borg's BL7701 is the step up - what heavy duty actually means.

Key Features
- Keypad, lever and key override only - the outside unit of the satin chrome Borg BL5701, for a compatible Borg lock already on the door.
- Key override built into the lever - Silca YA5 6-pin cylinder, keys supplied.
- Easicode Pro: the code changes on the door, and a deactivation plug locks out on-door changes once the code is set.
- Free passage with the F button - the door opens without a code until you cancel it.
- Heavy duty: free turning flat bar lever, cycle tested to 100,000 operations (Borg BL5700 Easicode Pro).
- Over 1,000 code combinations; 12 engraved stainless steel buttons plus the code change button.
- Satin chrome for internal doors.
- Reversible on site for left or right hand doors - the key override keypad has grub screws top and bottom (how to check handing).
What's In The Box
- 1 x Borg BL5701 Easicode Pro outside keypad with flat bar lever and built-in key override, satin chrome
- 1 x Silca YA5 6-pin key override cylinder, fitted in the lever, with keys
- 1 x code change deactivation plug (block pin)
- 1 x free passage deactivation plug
- Fixing hardware
Inside handle, latch, strike plate and the key override spindle - these come with the complete Borg BL5701 lock. The Easicode Pro change key is sold separately as the BL5000ECPCK.
Suitable Uses
- Replacing a worn or damaged outside keypad on a satin chrome Borg BL5701 (BL5701SCECP) - the inside handle, latch and strike stay on the door.
- Hospitals and other busy buildings where staff use the code and a supervisor, cleaner or emergency service needs a key - Borg designed the BL5700 for them.
- Doors where the code changes regularly - the on-door change makes rotating codes practical (why on-door code change matters).
- Internal doors. Satin chrome is not graded for weather - for a coastal or exposed door, the black Marine Grade Pro BL5701MGPROECP or BL5771MGPROECP are the options (do you need MG Pro?).
Available Finish Options
Satin Chrome
(This Product)
STK BL5701KSCECP
Finish selection does not affect functionality, compliance, or performance. This keypad is made in satin chrome only, for internal doors - Borg grades only its satin stainless finish for sheltered external doors. The complete BL5701 also comes in black Marine Grade Pro (BL5701MGPROECP) for coastal and exposed doors.
Compatible Borg Locks
The BL5701KSCECP is the outside keypad of the satin chrome Borg BL5701 (BL5701SCECP). It does not swap with Borg 2000 or 4000 series keypads. Check the model on the lock you have, and ask us if you are not sure.
Borg 5000 Series Keypad-Only Range
This is the only keypad-only unit in the range with a key override. Easicode Pro keypads change the code on the door; On The Bench keypads come off the door for it - do you always need ECP?

Frequently Asked Questions
It is the outside keypad of the satin chrome BL5701 (BL5701SCECP). The black Marine Grade Pro BL5701MGPROECP and the back-to-back BL5771MGPROECP use the same BL5700 keypad style in a different finish and grade, so ask us first. It does not swap with Borg 2000 or 4000 series keypads. The full list is in the compatibility table.
On the door, with the door open, using the BL5000ECPCK change key. Enter the current code, put the change key over the code change button, turn it 90 degrees clockwise and hold it in. Press C to clear, enter the new code, then enter it again. Release the key, turn it back and remove it, then press C or turn the lever to set the code. Test the new code five times and check the latch withdraws before you close the door (here is why). If the new code does not work, the old and new codes may have combined - enter both and start again; if the lever turns freely, the new code was not set - repeat from the change key step. Borg's steps: BL5000 ECP instructions (PDF).
The cylinder is in the keypad lever. Put the key in, turn it away from the door edge - clockwise on a right-hand door, anti-clockwise on a left-hand door - and push or pull the door open, then take the key out with the door open. It needs the sprung key override spindle to be the right length: cut too short on the keypad side, the key stops working while the code still does (BL5701SPINDLE).
Use the key - it opens the door whatever the code. To read the code, take the keypad off the door and turn it over: the 10 portholes on the back line up with the 10 number buttons. Press C, then read the lines - red lines closest to the centre of a porthole are coded digits, blue lines are not. Refit the keypad and change the code on the door. When to call a locksmith.
Yes, with the plugs. Both fit into the back of the keypad, dome up, before it goes on the door: the code change deactivation plug (block pin) goes in the arrow-marked hole at the top centre and stops the code being changed on the door; the free passage deactivation plug goes in the F slot and switches the F button off. Each works until the keypad is taken off the door. Passage mode explained.
Not in satin chrome - it is for internal doors. Borg grades only its satin stainless finish for sheltered external doors. For coastal or exposed doors, the black Marine Grade Pro BL5701MGPROECP and BL5771MGPROECP are the options - where Marine Grade Pro is useful.
Additional Information
- Keypad only, by design: replacing just the outside unit keeps the inside handle, latch and strike already on the door - why spare parts matter. Starting from scratch? Buy the complete BL5701.
- Check the spindle when you swap the keypad: the key override only works on Borg's sprung spindle at the right length - the BL5701SPINDLE if it has been cut too short.
- Keep the keys and the change key safe: the override keys open the door without the code, and the BL5000ECPCK change key re-codes it.
- Test before you rely on it: after any code change, keep the door open and try the new code five times before you close it.
- Service it on a schedule: the Borg servicing guide (PDF) covers a light monthly clean with a silicone-based spray - not an oil like WD40 - and a yearly service with the lock off the door.
- Reading Borg item codes: K marks the keypad-only units, SC satin chrome and ECP Easicode Pro; the 5700 series is the flat bar keypad with key override - Chapter 16 decodes the rest.
Warranty
All Borg locks are warranted against mechanical defects in materials and workmanship under normal use and service for a minimum of 12 months from date of sale. The warranty does not cover damage arising from misuse, vandalism, or improper installation. The lock must not be dismantled - doing so will invalidate the warranty.
