Key box YALE HOME YKB/540 with 2 keys and wall mount, compact metal key safe

YALE HOME YKB/540 is a compact metal key box designed to store and secure spare keys in a small, fixed location. Supplied with two mechanical keys and a wall mount, this key safe provides a straightforward solution for homes, offices, property managers and service providers who need controlled, convenient access to keys without electronic systems. The compact footprint and durable metal construction suit narrow corridors, utility rooms or outdoor sheltered walls where a simple keyed lock is preferred.

Advantages

The supplied two keys allow for primary and backup access, and the included wall mount ensures fixed, secure installation. Its simple design reduces maintenance and potential failure points compared with electronic alternatives, while the metal construction offers basic resistance to tampering and weather when sited under shelter.

How to use

Install the key box on a suitable wall surface using the supplied wall mount and fixings, ensuring the unit is positioned out of direct exposure to heavy rain if placed outdoors. Insert the provided keys into the lock to test smooth operation before closing. Store spare keys inside the box and turn the key to lock; use the second key as a backup or for a designated alternate user. To access stored keys, insert the key, unlock and open the lid to retrieve the contents.

Usage recommendations

For secure and long-lasting performance, mount the box to a solid, load-bearing wall and tighten fixings fully. Keep the second key in a separate secure location. If the unit is installed outdoors, place it under a roof overhang or sheltered area to minimise direct weather exposure.
