The Walled Lake Consolidated Schools Technology and Hardware
Upgrade Project started two and a half years ago through a school
bond in the State of Michigan. The upgrades include 12 elementary
schools, four middle schools and three high schools. The overall
project was split into four phases, the third of which will be
completed this summer. The fourth phase of this project, to be
completed this winter, includes finalizing the lock installations
for a few remaining buildings. These upgrades include providing
access control to approximately 99 percent of the district.
There are a variety of Allegion products being used, including:
Schlage® L Series mortise locks, Everest 29TM key system, Schlage
AD-400 mortise and cylindrical locks, Schlage AD-400 exit trim, Von
Duprin® QEL exit devices, LCN® 4010/4110 door closers, LCN 4600
automatic operators, Ives® hinges and Steelcraft® doors.
“Based on the technical expertise and product support, Allegion
products will be standard in our buildings. We have had a great
experience with Allegion over the years, which was part of the
consideration when choosing Architectural Hardware for this upgrade
project,” said Bill Chatfield, Director of Operations for the
district. Allegion has provided architectural support to the Walled
Lake Schools for more than a decade.

designing the architectural upgrades to the structures. LaForce,
