Borg BL2601 MG Pro ECP Mechanical Digital Knob Lock - Marine Grade Pro - Easicode Pro - 60mm Backset - Black
At A Glance
FINISHBlack MG Pro 2
DISPATCHSame Day Before 11am
PIN CodeThe Borg BL2601 MG Pro ECP is the manufacturer's highest-specification marine grade mechanical digital knob lock with on-door code change. It combines the MG Pro 2 marine grade finish, an improved formulation providing increased protection against saltwater corrosion and greater UV resistance compared to the standard MG Pro, with the Easicode Pro (ECP) on-door code change system. The code can be changed while the lock is installed on the door, without removal or programming tools.
Like every product in the BL2600 ECP series, the lock is tested to 1,000 hours of continuous salt spray and was developed for marine applications where compliance with the ISPS code (International Ship and Port Facility Security code) is required. It suits external medium duty doors and gates in coastal, marine and saline environments. We stock the full BL2600 ECP range on the Digital Mechanical Locks range alongside Lockwood DX and Carbine CDL7 for buyers weighing up a battery-free keypad lock.
The lock uses a clutching knob mechanism: the external knob is free-turning until the correct PIN is entered, preventing forced rotation. The inside lever handle is always free to turn for immediate egress. An anti-thrust deadlatch pin locks the latch automatically when the gate or door closes, so it is genuinely self-latching rather than needing to be manually thrown. The lock is fully mechanical, needs no batteries, and has no wiring of any kind. It is cycle tested to 50,000 operations and accepts doors and gates up to 85mm thick.

Easicode Pro - On Door Code Change
The PIN code can be changed while the lock stays on the gate or door, using the included code change key. No lock removal, no programming tool, no special knowledge required. Once you know the procedure it takes around 10 seconds. This is the model to buy if you expect to change the code more than once a year - our non-ECP BL2601MGPRO sibling uses Borg's older on-the-bench method, which is fiddly and best left infrequent. Full steps are in our Changing Codes on Mechanical Digital Locks guide.

Installing on a narrow aluminium gate frame?
Planning to mount this lock on an external gate with a 50mm x 50mm aluminium frame?
Worried the standard 60mm latch included in the box will not fit the frame?
You are right, it will not.
To fit correctly on a narrow gate frame you need the short 28mm backset latch instead. See our Gate Post Too Narrow for a 60mm Latch guide if you are not sure which stile width you have.

(This Product)
STK BL2601MGPROECP
Finish selection does not affect functionality, compliance, or performance. Nearest-match swatch shown; the MG Pro 2 marine coating is a black marine external grade finish. This is currently the only finish for the ECP model - the non-ECP BL2601MGPRO sibling is also Black MG Pro only.
Borg Marine Grade Knob Range - Which Model is Right for You?
This product (bold row) is the marine grade ECP model. Borg's BL2600 family also includes two related keypad formats on the same MG Pro 2 / ECP platform: the BL2606 MG Pro ECP hook bolt for sliding doors, and the BL2615 MG Pro ECP horizontal rim deadbolt for hinged gates. Both share this lock's MG Pro 2 coating and 1,000 hour salt spray rating but use a different bolt format for a different door style.
Accessories and Spares
Fitting the standard non-ECP BL2601KMGPRO keypad to this lock body works mechanically, but removes the Easicode Pro on-door code change function - you would be left with Borg's older on-the-bench code change method. If you want to keep the on-door convenience, order the ECP version of the keypad through Terry's.

What is the difference between the BL2601MGPRO and the BL2601MGPROECP?
Both are marine grade pro knob locks for outdoor and coastal gate applications. The difference is the code change method. The BL2601MGPRO uses Borg's older on-the-bench method, so the lock has to come off the door to change the code, and it is fiddly work. This ECP version lets you change the code on the door in around 10 seconds. The ECP version also uses the improved MG Pro 2 coating and suits doors up to 85mm thick, against 80mm for the non-ECP model. If you think you might ever need to change the code more than once in the lock's life, we would steer you to this ECP version.

Will this lock fit on a narrow aluminium gate frame?
The 60mm backset latch included in the box is sized for a standard door or gate leaf. On a narrow aluminium gate frame (50mm x 50mm or similar), the standard latch will not sit correctly. You need the extended gate latch, BLS272000LH or BLS272000RH depending on handing. Not sure what you have? Our guide to measuring your gate stile walks through it.

Can the code change function be locked out?
Yes. An optional code change disabling plug is included in the box. Once inserted into the code change hole on the * button, it stops the Easicode Pro code change procedure being started at all. Useful in managed or shared-access environments where only an administrator should be able to change the code. The plug can be removed again if you need code change access back.

Is the BL2601 MG Pro ECP suitable for pool gates in Queensland?
The lock's job is access control, not the barrier's self-latching function. Our site-wide position is straightforward: a bolt-format lock is never allowed on a pool barrier gate because a bolt does not secure anything until it is thrown, but a self-latching latch lock like this one is fine so long as a genuinely compliant self-latching gate latch (such as a MagnaLatch) is doing the barrier's self-latching job. See the full pool safety barrier gate treatment in our latch vs bolt guide, and get final sign-off from a licensed pool safety inspector before you specify any lock for a pool gate. Terry's can advise on the correct latch handing and installation approach for your specific gate.

Additional Information
Set and Test the Code Before Closing the Gate
The Easicode Pro code change is done with the door open. After setting a new code, test it a minimum of five times before letting the gate close. This confirms the change worked and the new code reliably retracts the latch, avoiding an accidental lockout.

MG Pro 2 vs Standard Marine Grade
The MG Pro 2 coating on this product is Borg's best marine grade finish, giving better saltwater corrosion resistance and UV resistance than both the standard finishes and the earlier MG Pro coating. For properties close to the ocean, on canals, or at marina facilities, MG Pro 2 is the right specification. The standard BL2600MGBC uses a standard marine grade finish and does not carry a manufacturer salt spray test rating. Our MG Pro and ECP Explained guide covers the whole tier system.

Marine Grade Maintenance
Monthly: clean the keypad and latch surfaces with a light spray of silicon-based lubricant (such as GT85); wipe off the excess with a soft cloth. Do not use oil-based lubricants such as WD-40, since they attract dirt and speed up wear on internal parts. Annually: remove the lock, spray internally through the button holes with silicon-based lubricant, test all buttons and the knob, and check the latch for wear. Full servicing steps are in the Borg Lock Servicing Guide PDF below.

Anti-Thrust Deadlatch - Strike Plate Positioning
The anti-thrust pin beside the latchbolt needs to sit on the face of the strike plate when the gate is fully closed. It must not enter the hole made for the latch bolt. If the anti-thrust pin enters the hole, the deadlatch will not activate and the lock can be vulnerable to shimming. Adjust the strike plate position at installation and check the anti-thrust pin sits correctly before putting the gate into regular use. Our self-latching explainer covers why this pin matters.

Borg BL2601 MG Pro ECP - FAQ, Setup and Owner's Guide
The most common questions we get about the Borg BL2601 MG Pro ECP, grouped by topic. For the general basics of a keypad lock, see our Mechanical Digital Locks buyer's guide.
Marine Grade, Salt Spray and ECP Explained
What does MG Pro 2 actually mean?
It is Borg's top marine grade coating tier. Standard Marine Grade is Borg's entry coastal finish with no published salt spray figure; MG Pro steps up to 316 stainless steel construction with a 1,000 hour salt spray rating; MG Pro 2, used on this lock, is the same 1,000 hour rating with an improved coating formulation for better UV resistance on top of the saltwater protection. See the full breakdown in our MG Pro and MG Pro 2 explained guide.

See the full breakdown in our MG Pro and MG Pro 2 explained guide.
Is 1,000 hours of salt spray testing actually good?
Yes, relative to what else is published in this category. Our Lockwood vs Borg vs Carbine comparison sets it against Carbine's published 240 hour figure at the equivalent tier. Salt spray hours are a standardised lab test, not a real-world lifespan promise, but a higher published number from the same test method is a genuine, checkable differentiator.

Salt spray hours are a standardised lab test, not a real-world lifespan promise, but a higher published number from the same test method is a genuine, checkable differentiator.
What does ECP mean and is it worth paying for?
ECP stands for Easicode Pro, Borg's on-door code change system. It means you can reset the PIN in around 10 seconds without taking the lock off the gate. The non-ECP BL2601MGPRO sibling uses Borg's older on-the-bench method: unscrewing the lock, resetting a tumbler pack with tweezers, and putting it back together. It works, but it is fiddly, and most people only want to do it once. If there is any realistic chance you will need to change the code again, in a rental, a strata property, or after staff turnover, we would steer you to the ECP version every time. Full steps for both methods are in our Changing Codes on Mechanical Digital Locks guide.

Gate and Narrow Frame Installation
How do I know if my gate frame is too narrow for the standard latch?
Measure the stile, the vertical bar of the gate frame the lock mounts into, not the gate post. Most standard aluminium and timber gate stiles take the 60mm backset latch this lock ships with. Narrow aluminium stiles around 50mm x 50mm need the shorter 28mm backset latch instead (BLS272000LH or RH). Our measuring guide walks through it with photos.

Do I need to tell you the handing when I order the short latch?
Yes. The short 28mm backset latch is handed and sold as a left hand or right hand part (BLS272000LH / BLS272000RH), unlike the standard 60mm latch on this lock, which is reversible on site. Our gate stile guide explains how to work out which hand you need before ordering.

Pool Gates and Compliance
Can a keypad lock be the self-latching device on a pool barrier gate?
No, not on its own. A pool barrier gate needs its own certified self-latching, self-locking hardware, typically a compliant MagnaLatch or similar, doing the barrier job. This lock provides access control on top of that, not instead of it. Bolt-format locks are never acceptable on a pool barrier gate at all, since a bolt secures nothing until someone deliberately throws it. See the full position in our pool safety barrier gate guide.

Bolt-format locks are never acceptable on a pool barrier gate at all, since a bolt secures nothing until someone deliberately throws it. See the full position in our pool safety barrier gate guide.
Can I use holdback mode on a pool gate?
Only if a compliant self-latching latch, such as a MagnaLatch, is separately fitted and doing the barrier's self-latching job. This lock's own holdback function is an access-control convenience, not a barrier safety feature. See our Passage Mode vs Holdback Mode guide for the full ruling on pool gates and holdback.

Fit, Compatibility and Spares
My BL2601 keypad has worn out. What is the correct replacement?
BL2601KMGPRO is the confirmed direct-fit replacement keypad for this lock body. Note it is the non-ECP version of the keypad, so fitting it on its own removes the on-door code change function - ask Terry's about the ECP keypad if you want to keep that.

Is there a key override option on this lock?
No. This lock has no key override at all, by design; access is PIN code only. If you want a marine grade Borg keypad with a backup key, the gate lever range (such as the BL4400 series) carries key override options, but that is a different lock body and format, not a variant of this product.

What other Borg BL2600 MG Pro ECP formats do you stock?
The same MG Pro 2 platform and 1,000 hour salt spray rating is also available as the BL2606 hook bolt for sliding doors, and the BL2615 horizontal rim deadbolt for hinged gates.
