Borg BL2601KMGPRO Knob Keypad Only - Marine Grade Pro - Black
At A Glance
Not Available
The Borg BL2601KMGPRO Knob Keypad Only is the outside knob keypad from Borg's BL2601 Marine Grade Pro knob lock, sold on its own as a replacement keypad only. It matches the Borg BL2601MGPRO - the full list is under Compatible Borg Locks.
Like every lock in our mechanical digital range, it needs no batteries, wiring or app. Its black Marine Grade Pro coating is salt spray tested to 1,000 hours (what MG Pro 2 means), and the code is changed On The Bench - the lock comes off the gate or door for it.
Usually ships same day if ordered before 11am AEST (excludes weekends and Queensland public holidays).
This listing is the outside knob keypad only. A working lock also needs the inside handle, latch, strike plate and spindle, which come with the complete Borg BL2601MGPRO lock - order that instead if there is no Borg lock on the gate or door yet.
To change the code, the lock comes off the gate or door, the plate inside the keypad is unscrewed and the coded and un-coded pieces are moved with tweezers while C is held in. It works, but it is fiddly - and on a gate it means taking the lock off outdoors. Spare coded pieces let you set a code of three or four digits, or six or seven. If you expect to change the code even once a year, the complete BL2601MGPROECP is the same Marine Grade Pro knob lock with Easicode Pro, changed on the gate with a key. See the bench method step by step and do you always need ECP?.
The keypad has Borg's black Marine Grade Pro coating - called MG Pro 2 in Borg's BL2600 brochure - over 316 stainless steel, and Borg salt spray tests the finish to 1,000 hours. That figure is a laboratory result - the part sits in a continuous salt fog in a test cabinet - not a promise of years of coastal service, so keep up the servicing in the Borg servicing guide (PDF). See salt spray hours compared and where Marine Grade Pro is worth it.
The keypad works entirely mechanically: no batteries, no wiring and no app, so there is nothing to go flat on an exposed gate. How a mechanical digital lock works.
Borg makes the BL2600 series for external medium duty doors and gates - homes, pool areas and light commercial sites.
For heavy duty, consider the Lockwood 3572DX, Borg BL7701 or Carbine CDL7200LL - and read what heavy duty actually means.

Key Features
- Knob keypad only - the outside unit of the Borg BL2601 MG Pro knob lock, for a compatible Borg lock already on the gate or door.
- Black Marine Grade Pro coating over 316 stainless steel, salt spray tested to 1,000 hours - Borg MG Pro compared.
- Fully mechanical - no batteries, no wiring and no app.
- On The Bench code change, with spare coded pieces for a shorter or longer code (about the spare pieces).
- Cast housing and knob with stainless steel buttons; 14 buttons (BL2600 series).
- Reversible on site for left or right hand gates and doors (how to check handing).
What's In The Box
- 1 x Borg BL2601 outside knob keypad, black Marine Grade Pro
- 1 x rubber gasket
- 1 x fixing hardware and accessory pack
Inside handle, latch, strike plate and spindle - these come with the complete Borg BL2601MGPRO lock. Spare rubber gaskets are sold separately.
Suitable Uses
- Replacing a worn, damaged or weathered outside keypad on a Borg BL2601MGPRO - the inside handle, latch and strike stay on the gate or door.
- Coastal and waterfront gates and doors exposed to salt air - browse locks for external gates exposed to rain and read where Marine Grade Pro is worth it.
- Gates and external doors that suit a knob rather than a lever - see why mechanical digital locks suit gates.
- Gates where the code rarely changes - if it changes even once a year, an Easicode Pro lock such as the BL2601MGPROECP is the better buy.

Finish selection does not affect functionality, compliance, or performance. This keypad is made in one finish only: black Marine Grade Pro.
Compatible Borg Locks
The BL2601KMGPRO is the outside knob keypad of Borg's BL2601 Marine Grade Pro lock. Check the model and code change method on the lock you have, and ask us if it is not listed or you are not sure.
Borg Marine Grade Pro and Knob Keypad-Only Range
The first three are black Marine Grade Pro keypad-only units; the BL2600KMG is the external grade chrome knob keypad for ordinary weather, and the BL2000KSCNEW and BL2000KPB are the knob keypads of the light duty 2000 series. MG Pro and ECP compared.
Accessories and Spares
The spare coded pieces are the ones worth having on hand for an On The Bench keypad. The Lockwood conversion kits and plates are sold as suiting Borg 2000 and 4000 Series keypads; check with us that your kit suits this BL2600 series keypad before you order (the retrofit ecosystem explained).

Frequently Asked Questions
It is the outside knob keypad of the BL2601MGPRO. The Easicode Pro BL2601MGPROECP page lists it as a direct-fit replacement, but that lock would then lose its on-gate code change. The BL2605MGPRO deadbolt lock uses a BL2600 series keypad too - ask us before ordering for it. The full list is in the compatibility table.
On The Bench. Take the lock off the gate or door, remove the screws and the plate over the code chamber, then hold C in and move the coded (red) and un-coded (blue) pieces with tweezers - never remove the C piece, and keep the square cut-outs facing out. Refit and test the new code before the lock goes back on. Step by step: the Borg bench change and the Borg code change sheet (PDF), which is headed BL2000.
It is built for it: the black Marine Grade Pro coating is salt spray tested to 1,000 hours, over 316 stainless steel. That is a laboratory cabinet figure rather than a guaranteed life on your gate, so follow the Borg servicing guide (PDF) - a light clean every month and a fuller service once a year. See salt spray hours compared.
The keypad has to match your lock. This knob keypad suits the BL2601 knob locks; the BL4401KMGPRO and BL4401KMGPROECP are the lever keypads for the BL4400 gate locks. Check the model on your lock before ordering.
The keypad body is 142mm high and 41mm wide. It stands 21.8mm off the door at the face and 38.1mm at the knob base, and the knob is 39mm wide. Borg's drawing is under Keypad Dimensions.
Additional Information
- Keypad only, by design: replacing just the outside unit keeps the inside handle, latch and strike already on the gate - why spare parts matter. Starting from scratch? Buy the complete BL2601MGPRO.
- Keep spare pieces for the bench: BLS213 coded and BLS214 un-coded pieces are the spares if one goes missing mid-change.
- Test before you close the gate: after any code change, keep the gate open and try the new code several times before you rely on it.
- Service it on a schedule: the Borg servicing guide (PDF) covers a light monthly clean and a yearly service with the lock off the gate - worth diarising on a coastal or exposed gate.
- Reading Borg item codes: the codes carry the key facts - MG Pro for the marine grade coating, ECP for Easicode Pro - and Chapter 16 decodes the naming.
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. Proof of purchase required for all claims.
