Carbine CDL7200LL-KDSC-HD Mechanical Digital Lock - Dual Keypad Dual BCA Lever
At A Glance
Not Available
The Carbine CDL7200LL-KDSC-HD is the dual keypad model of the CDL7200 Heavy Duty series. It carries a mechanical digital keypad on both the external and internal faces, along with BCA-compliant lever handles on both sides, so a valid code must be entered to operate the lever from either side of the door. That gives you keyless, code-controlled access and exit in both directions - without a battery, an app, or a single electronic component. If mechanical digital locks are new to you, our guide to how a battery-free keypad lock works covers the coding chamber that sits behind those buttons.
Bidirectional code control suits rooms where movement in and out both need restricting: server and data rooms, pharmaceutical storage, cash-handling areas, and restricted zones in institutional buildings. Like every CDL7 HD series lock, it runs stainless steel cryptographic elements, exceeds 100,000 tested cycle openings, and is salt spray tested to 240 hours (C7 High). Our heavy duty commercial guide explains what those internals mean over years of high-traffic use, and the Buyers Guide's commercial mech-digi chapter puts the CDL7 range in context against the rest of the Digital Mechanical Locks range.
The standard unit is 60mm backset, satin chrome, reversible for left and right hand doors, and suits doors 32 to 54mm thick. The 59mm-wide body covers the fixing holes of common NK2000 and Lockwood 530 installations, which makes it a tidy retrofit upgrade. One design point to understand before you buy: the external lever carries a security break point - see the caution below.
The external lever on this lock features a security break point: it will shear off under excessive pull force. This is deliberate - it stops the lever being used to force the lock - but it means the lever must never be used as a pull handle on a heavy door. If real pull force is needed to open the door (a strong closer, wind load), fit a separate pull handle rated for the job. For heavy-door applications, the knob-external Carbine CDL7100SC-HD is often the better pick.
Exceeds 100,000 cycle openings with stainless steel cryptographic elements - the HD series runs steel where standard mechanical digital locks run zinc. Suited to secure commercial and institutional doors that get worked all day. Our guide to high-traffic keypad locks covers when heavy duty is worth paying for.
Salt spray tested to 240 hours per AS4145.2-2008 and rated C7 (High) - a genuine tested figure, not a marketing line. Finish degradation from salt and weather exposure is excluded from warranty, so on coastal sites plan on wiping the finish down regularly. Carbine's salt spray testing information sheet (PDF) explains the test method, and the Buyers Guide's corrosion grade explainer shows where C7 sits on the AS4145.2 scale.
Both lever handles meet BCA accessibility clearance requirements (35-45mm grip clearance per AS1428.1). Note the flip side: because a code must be entered before either lever will operate, this model needs assessing against any DDA or egress requirements that apply to the specific doorway before it is specified.
Key Features
- Mechanical digital keypad on both external and internal faces - a code is required to operate the lever from either side.
- BCA-compliant lever handles on both faces (AS1428.1 clearance).
- External lever runs a clutching mechanism and a security break point - never use it as a pull handle.
- Fully mechanical push-button lock - no batteries, no electronics, no connectivity, nothing to charge or pair.
- Heavy duty series build: stainless steel cryptographic elements, exceeding 100,000 cycle openings.
- Ball bearing style push buttons resist code manipulation and decoding attempts.
- Code changed via slider switches at the rear of the external pad - see Code Control below.
- 240 hour salt spray tested, rated C7 High per AS4145.2-2008.
- 60mm backset, suits doors 32-54mm thick, reversible for left and right hand doors.
- 59mm body width covers NK2000 and Lockwood 530 fixing holes for clean retrofits.
- Satin chrome finish. Factory default code C13579 - must be changed before installation.
Code Control - Both Sides of the Door
Both keypads use the same code. It is set once, via slide code-select switches behind the external pad, and applies to both faces - there is no separate internal code. Enter the code, turn the lever, and the latch withdraws; on the other side of the door, exactly the same. This is what separates the KDSC from the single-keypad CDL7200LL-HD, whose internal lever always operates freely.
Changing the code is a bench job: the lock comes off the door, the slide switches at the rear of the external assembly are set to the new combination, and the CLEAR (C) button must always be pressed before a code is entered. The factory default is C13579 and must be changed - and tested from both sides with the door open - before the door is closed on it. The full procedure with figures is in the installation instructions (PDF), and our Carbine slider code-change walkthrough steps it through with realistic timings.

Gate Installations
A large share of the CDL7200 units we fit go onto gates - the Installation Gallery tab shows real pool and pedestrian gate installs from around the Gold Coast. Double-sided code control earns its keep on gates because a reach-over or reach-through defeats a single-sided keypad in seconds; our guide to why double-sided locks make sense on gates walks through exactly that problem.
On pool gates, one thing matters above all: the lock controls access, but the pool barrier itself must still self-close and self-latch to meet barrier rules - fitting a keypad lock never substitutes for that. The pool gate section of our latch vs bolt guide covers the setup requirements. For gate posts and mounting, the Carbine Gate Guard for CDL7 (mounting box) adapts the lock to gate frames - see its specification sheet (PDF) and installation instructions (PDF), or ask us about fitting. The Buyers Guide's gate keypad locks chapter covers the wider decisions - stile widths, latch types, and exposure.

Finish selection does not affect functionality, compliance, or performance.
CDL7 HD Series - Product Family
Four heavy duty configurations share the CDL7 platform - the differences are handle type, holdback, and how many keypads. Our three-brand comparison covers where the CDL7 sits against Lockwood DX and Borg equivalents.
All models satin chrome. HD series runs stainless steel cryptographic elements and exceeds the 100,000 cycle test. Need holdback? That is the CDL7100-HBSC-HD - the CDL7200 models do not carry it. Our holdback mode explainer covers what the function actually does.

Fire Doors and Egress - Read Before Specifying
The distinction matters, so here it is plainly: the CDL7200 lock body has genuine fire assessment behind it. Warringtonfire's master door hardware assessments cover the CDL7100 and CDL7200 at FRL -/120/30 with 60mm backset - on E-core doorsets in report FAS220275 (Table 10, page 14) and on Firecore doorsets in report FAS220387 (Table 9, page 10). Those assessments apply per doorset type and are not interchangeable between core types - our guide to reading fire certification documents explains how to match a report to your actual door, and the Buyers Guide's fire door core types chapter covers what E-core and Firecore mean.
But the body assessment never rescues the dual-keypad configuration: code-controlled egress rules it off fire and egress paths full stop. If the doorway is a fire door, look at the single-keypad CDL7200LL-HD, whose internal lever always operates freely, and confirm the full doorset compliance with your certifier - our apartment fire door compliance guide explains FRL ratings and what certifiers look for, and you can browse everything we carry for those doors in the Fire Door category.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Both the external and internal keypads use the same code. It is set once, via the slide switches behind the external pad, and applies to both sides - there is no separate internal code. See Code Control above for how changes work.
No. Because a code must be entered to open the door from the inside, this model cannot go on any door that forms part of a fire egress path - the lock body's fire assessment does not change that. The full explanation, with the certification documents, is in Fire Doors and Egress above.
The break point is a security feature: the lever shears off if excessive lateral or pull force is applied, so it cannot be used to force the lock. In practice it means the lever is not a pull handle - on heavy doors, or doors with strong closers, fit a separate pull handle rated for the load.
The CDL7200LL-HD has a keypad on the external face only - its internal lever operates freely, no code needed to exit. The KDSC adds a keypad to the internal face as well, so a code is required from both sides. Free internal egress also makes the single-keypad model the one to discuss for fire doors.
The standard listed item (CDL7200LL-KDSC-HD) is 60mm. 70mm and 127mm backset options exist in the CDL7 range but are sold separately - contact us to confirm availability for this dual-keypad variant. If you are not sure what backset your door needs, our backset measuring guide takes a minute.
Additional Information
Egress compliance: This lock requires code entry to open from the internal face. It must not be specified on any door forming part of a regulated egress path under the National Construction Code - fire exits, stairwell doors, or any door occupants must pass through to reach safety in an emergency. Certain occupancies and door positions carry mandatory free-egress requirements. Confirm suitability with your building certifier before specifying.
External lever and pull handles: The security break point means the external lever must not be used to pull heavy doors open. Where a closer or wind load needs real pull force, install a separate pull handle rated for the door.
Code change before installation: The factory default code C13579 must be changed and tested before the lock is fitted. The single code applies to both keypads - test both sides with the door open before closing it. Our code change guide's test-five-times rule exists because of exactly this moment.
Retrofitting older locks: The 59mm body width covers the fixing holes of NK2000 and Lockwood 530 installations, so most swaps need no door patching. Where an older lock has left larger scarring, the CDL72 edge plate (PDF) covers the door edge. Our guide to retrofit kits and spare parts covers why serviceable hardware matters over a lock's life.
Coastal sites: The C7 High salt spray rating is strong, but finish tarnish from salt exposure is excluded from warranty across the industry - Carbine included. A regular freshwater wipe-down keeps the satin chrome presentable; the mechanism itself stays covered for the full 10 years.
Warranty
Carbine is a Davcor Group brand, and Davcor backs its mechanical digital locks with one of the longest warranties in the category: 10 years against defects in materials and workmanship from the date of original purchase. There are no electronics or batteries in this lock to shorten the cover - the whole product is warranted for the full term.
On a valid claim, Davcor will repair the lock, replace it, or supply an equivalent product. Keep your proof of purchase, and make the claim as soon as a defect becomes apparent.
What the warranty does not cover: fair wear and tear; damage caused by faulty installation, misuse, or modification of the product; and tarnishing or change to the finish from weather, salt, or chemical exposure. On coastal and exposed sites, regular cleaning of the finish is the practical answer - the lock mechanism itself remains covered.
Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure.

Carbine CDL7200LL-KDSC-HD - Deeper Questions
The code lives in mechanical slide switches behind the external pad, so it can only be read or reset with the lock accessible - normally with the door open. If the door is locked and nobody knows the code, that is a locksmith visit, not a DIY fix. It is exactly why the code should be recorded somewhere secure the day it is set, and why we test both sides before closing the door.
It is a bench procedure: the lock comes off the door, the sliders are reset, and everything goes back on. Comfortable with tools, it is a routine job; first time through, allow longer and follow the figures in the installation instructions (PDF). Our code change guide gives realistic timings across all the brands we carry.
A competent DIYer with the right tools can: the instructions call for a chisel, a 25mm spade bit, a 10mm drill bit, and a Phillips head screwdriver, and the box includes the drilling template. The latch hole runs 85mm deep, and the bevelled latch bolt must face the direction the door shuts - the instructions (PDF) diagram both. If you would rather not drill your door, we install across the Gold Coast - the Installation Gallery tab shows our work.
In most cases, yes, cleanly - the 59mm body covers the standard fixing holes both leave behind. Check your backset is 60mm first (how to measure). If the old installation left wider scarring, the CDL72 edge plate tidies the door edge.
No. This is a pure keypad lock - PIN entry on both faces, no key cylinder. That is part of its appeal (no keys to cut, lose, or control) and part of its discipline (guard the code). If your application genuinely needs a key path, talk to us about alternatives before ordering.
Yes - several of the installs in our gallery are pool gates. The setup rule: the pool barrier must still self-close and self-latch to meet barrier requirements; the lock provides code control, it never substitutes for the barrier's own compliance. The pool gate section of our latch vs bolt guide covers this properly.
The lock is reversible for left and right hand doors - the interior handle assembly is handed during installation, per the handing figures in the installation instructions (PDF). Check your door's handing before you start; the Buyers Guide's handing explainer shows how.
Yes - serviceability is one of the reasons we carry Carbine over hardware-store lookalikes. A 70mm latch is available separately, the CDL72 edge plate covers retrofit scarring, and the Gate Guard kit adapts the lock to gate frames. Our guide to spare parts and serviceable hardware explains why that matters years down the track.
All three are quality mechanical digital platforms with different strengths - Lockwood's DX range converts existing mortice locks, Borg leads on marine-grade finishes and on-door code changing, and the Carbine CDL7 HD is the heavy duty commercial pick with its stainless internals and dual-keypad option. Our Lockwood vs Borg vs Carbine comparison puts them side by side, and the Buyers Guide's three-brand chapter goes deeper.
