The ‘Camatic’ is Camlock’s highly respected and widely used changeable combination system. In the event of the loss or theft of the operating key(s), the lock’s combination can be altered by a simple turn of a Change Key. In such situations, the Camatic facility eliminates the need to replace locks. This Mark IV type incorporates a specially developed version of the patented ‘Octagon’ system to minimize the risk of unauthorized keys being used to open the lock, through key assignment. For optimum key control, the customer specifies the number of Operator and Change Keys required, avoiding the risk of surplus keys falling into the wrong hands.

The construction is a die-cast alloy housing, brass locking mechanism, sintered steel bolt and a polished chrome finish. The bezel is numbered 1— 8 to assist reprogramming but there is no indication of the combination that the lock is set on. Available with spring or deadbolt and with a standard or flush bolt. The GM8871MkIV may share a key combination with other 8 pin Octagon Camatic products, such as cam locks.
