Borg BL1006SCECP Mechanical Digital Cam Lock for Cabinet Doors - Easicode Pro - Satin Chrome
At A Glance
The Borg BL1006SCECP puts proper keyless access on cabinets, lockers, cupboards, and built-in joinery. It is a fully mechanical digital cam lock - a compact pushbutton keypad on the front, a rotating cam behind the door, and not a battery or wire anywhere in the system. Enter the code, turn, open.
The feature that lifts it above generic cabinet locks is Easicode Pro: the code is changed on the door, in place, without pulling the lock off. In a staff room, gym, clinic, or school where locker codes rotate with the people using them, that is the difference between a two-minute job and an afternoon of unscrewing doors.
Usually ships same day if ordered before 11am AEST (excludes weekends and Queensland public holidays).
Entirely mechanical throughout: no power source, no wiring and no battery to go flat across a bank of lockers. See how mechanical digital locks work.
Suited to cabinets, lockers, cupboards and joinery in staff rooms, gyms, clinics and schools, where codes change with the people using them.
This is a cam lock for cabinets and joinery, not a door lock. For heavy duty door applications consider the Lockwood 3572DX, Borg BL7701, or Carbine CDL7200LL-HD.
Key Features
- Fully mechanical digital cam lock - no batteries, wiring, or electronics anywhere in the system.
- Easicode Pro on-door code changing - codes rotate in minutes without removing the lock from the door.
- Compact 41mm-wide footprint sized for cabinets, lockers, cupboards, and joinery.
- Single PIN code with over 500 possible combinations (Borg figure).
- Non-handed - the one unit suits left-hand and right-hand opening doors.
- Two cams and mounting hardware supplied - covers different cupboard constructions out of the box.
- Suits door material up to 25mm thick.
- Satin Chrome finish.
Access Methods
One method, done properly. The greyed row shows what this model leaves out - if you need a key fallback on a cabinet, the BL1706 sibling adds exactly that.
Changing the Code - Easicode Pro
Locks without Easicode Pro come off the door to be re-coded On The Bench. Easicode Pro does the whole job in place, following the steps in the BL1006SCECP Operation Instructions V2 (PDF) - a genuine two-minute task once you have done it twice. Our code changing guide explains how the ECP method compares with the bench method across the Borg range.
The steps, from Borg's sheet: With the door open: enter the existing code; press and hold the * button with a suitable tool and keep it held until the new code is entered; press C to clear; enter the new code; release the * button; press C to set. Then test the new code five times, watching the cam turn, before you close the door. If you make a mistake, press C while the * button is still held and start the new code again.
What's in the Box
- 1 x Borg BL1006SCECP mechanical digital cam lock
- 2 x cams
- Mounting hardware
Suitable Uses
This is the mechanical digital answer for anything cupboard-sized: staff lockers, medication and first-aid cabinets, stationery cupboards, gym and pool lockers, tradie van drawers, server and comms cabinets, and school or clinic joinery. Anywhere a shared key currently gets lost, copied, or carried home, a code on the door solves it without adding batteries to the maintenance list. It is internal-only hardware - not weather resistant, so outdoor cabinets and wet areas are out of scope.
Available Finish Options
Satin Chrome
(This Product)
STK BL1006SCECP
Finish selection does not affect functionality, compliance, or performance.
This is currently the only finish for this model. For a black MG Pro 2 cam lock for outdoor cabinets, see the BL1706, which adds a key override.

Dimensions
The front keypad unit stands 110mm high by 41mm wide, with a 22mm body depth and 40mm overall projection. The second drawing shows the rear fixing unit and cam arrangement on the same 41mm-wide plate - see the drawings for fixing centres and cam profiles, full size on the Dimensions tab.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes - the compact cam lock format is the usual retrofit choice, provided the existing door cut-out and cam clearance suit. The horizontal and vertical drilling templates on this page let you check the hole pattern against your door before ordering.
No. It is a fully mechanical digital lock - no batteries, no wiring, no charging, ever. That is precisely why the format suits banks of lockers: nothing to flatten across fifty doors. Our plain-English explainer covers how battery-free keyless entry works.
On the door, using the Easicode Pro method in the operating instructions - no need to remove the lock. The steps are under Changing the Code. Each lock accepts a single PIN at a time, so changing the code immediately retires the old one.
No. It is intended for internal use only and is not weather resistant. For coastal or exposed conditions on cabinet doors, the BL1706 sibling carries the Marine Grade Pro coating.
Door material up to 25mm thick - standard melamine, MDF, plywood, and metal locker doors all fall within that. Two cams are supplied to cover different cupboard constructions; check the drilling templates for the cut-out.
Additional Information
Fit the lock so the keypad sits at a comfortable height for the people actually using it - on tall locker banks, that usually means the second row from the top, not the top row.
Order one spare unit with the batch: a spare on the shelf turns any future damage into a ten-minute swap.
Code-only access has a management upside: no master key to control, and no key copies to track - the code list is the whole system. New to the category? Chapter 16 of the Buyer's Guide covers how the Borg, Lockwood and Carbine mechanical ranges divide the work.
Borg's operating instructions show how to recover the current code from the lock: loosen the grub screw on the code cover plate, slide the plate up, then rotate it to read the code, which shows in red. Keep the operating instructions (PDF) with your locker records, and test every new code five times with the door open before you close it.
Monthly: wipe the keypad and knob with a light spray of silicon-based lubricant (such as GT85) and remove the excess with a soft cloth. Do not use oil-based lubricants such as WD-40 - they attract dirt and wear down internal parts over time. Annually: remove the lock from the door, spray the inside through the code piece holes on the reverse of the keypad with silicon-based lubricant, spray the fixings and the cam with silicon-based lubricant, then press each button and turn the knob several times to confirm smooth operation. Full steps are in the Borg Lock Servicing Guide (PDF).
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.

Borg BL1006SCECP Cam Lock - FAQ, Setup and Owner's Guide
Answers for choosing, fitting, coding and looking after the BL1006SCECP cam lock. For how mechanical digital locks work in general, see Buyer's Guide Chapter 16, and for the Borg range, Chapter 10 - Brand Profiles.
Choosing the BL1006SCECP
The BL1006SCECP is code-only, in satin chrome. The BL1706 adds a euro cylinder key override and is also offered in black MG Pro 2 for outdoor cabinets. Choose the BL1706 when a supervisor needs to open lockers without the code, or when the lock will be outside.
No - it is for internal use only and is not weather resistant. For an outdoor cabinet or post box, the BL1706 in black MG Pro 2 is the marine grade option; see when MG Pro is needed.
No. It is a cam lock for cabinets, lockers and joinery. For a keypad lock on a busy commercial door, look at the Lockwood 3572DX, the Borg BL7701 or the Carbine CDL7200LL-HD.
Codes and Easicode Pro
With the door open: enter the existing code; press and hold the * button with a suitable tool and keep it held until the new code is entered; press C to clear; enter the new code; release the * button; press C to set. Then test the new code five times, watching the cam turn, before you close the door. If you make a mistake, press C while the * button is still held and start the new code again. The same steps are in the operating instructions (PDF).
Borg's operating instructions show how to recover the current code from the lock: loosen the grub screw on the code cover plate, slide the plate up, then rotate it to read the code, which shows in red. Check the sheet before you need it.
One PIN at a time, from over 500 possible combinations (Borg's figure). Setting a new code retires the old one straight away, so there is no list of user codes to manage.
Fit and Installation
Door material up to 25mm thick - standard melamine, MDF, plywood and metal locker doors all fall within that. Two cams are supplied to suit different cupboard constructions.
Borg's fold-along templates cover vertical and horizontal installations of the BL1000 ECP series cam locks. Print the vertical or horizontal template at 100%, fold it along the door edge and mark two 8mm fixing holes and one 10mm cam hole. Check the pattern against your door before you order.
No - it is non-handed, so one unit suits left-hand and right-hand opening doors.
Care and Warranty
Monthly: wipe the keypad and knob with a light spray of silicon-based lubricant (such as GT85) and remove the excess with a soft cloth. Do not use oil-based lubricants such as WD-40 - they attract dirt and wear down internal parts over time. Annually: remove the lock from the door, spray the inside through the code piece holes on the reverse of the keypad with silicon-based lubricant, spray the fixings and the cam with silicon-based lubricant, then press each button and turn the knob several times to confirm smooth operation. Full steps are in the Borg Lock Servicing Guide (PDF).
12 months from the date of sale under the Borg warranty. If you bought it from us, contact us first and we will manage the claim - see the Warranty section.
