The importance of security in healthcare settings
Healthcare environments face unique security challenges. From legal regulations to ensure the proper safeguarding of sensitive patient information to ensuring that only authorised personnel with the correct keys can access medication storage, robust security measures are essential.
As a specialist manufacturer of locking systems, Lowe & Fletcher supply a wide variety of locking solutions for healthcare and medical applications. Our locks can be found on medical furniture in health centres, hospitals, nursing homes, vets and other healthcare buildings, providing peace of mind for both patients and staff.
All of our locks can be supplied ‘to differ’, allowing each ward or department to have its own key and a key stored securely at the pharmacy for example. This means trolleys can be securely moved between wards or consultation and treatment rooms, or items retrieved securely from cabinets, with no unauthorised access.
You can view our vast range of locking systems for medical furniture below. If you can’t find what you’re looking for, get in touch for further information.
Locks for Medical Furniture
Camlocks
This is the most versatile lock type in the range, and is often used to secure doors, cabinets and cupboards. Our camlocks are available in a wide range of styles to suit many applications.
Mechanical Combination Locks
Our range of mechanical combination locks have many different design features including key override and code finding functions. The common feature of such locks is that they eliminate the need for a key.
Latchlocks
Designed for use on metal cabinets and lockers, latchlocks have the lock incorporated into the handle. The handle, which can be used to open and close the doors, includes a hole through which a padlock can be attached. The padlock then secures the lock and prevents it from being opened.

Furniture Locks
Our furniture locking systems include products such as pedestal locks, rim locks and tambour locks. With many different designs and features, these locking systems offer choice, convenience and reliability in any medical furniture application.
