Keeping order and track of your security in a parking garage is akin to playing a real-world game of Tetris. Rearrange here and move this one there. Make sure this piece fits; why can’t I remove this one to create space?!

Not to mention concerns you may have over intruders determined to break in, or the amount of time spent researching and money spent investing in security options such as on-site security guards, security cameras, and more.

Luckily, in this game, you have an advantage. We remove one piece of the puzzle, creating enhanced security with Electronic Autolock and its expanded availability for our Extreme 300 Series Grille.


In unmanned or overnight parking garages or facilities that utilize grilles for protection, safety is the number one priority. Previously launched for the Extreme MicroCoil Grille – 500 Cycles, Electronic AutoLock is now available on CornellCookson’s 300 Series Grille, broadening your security options.

Who can use Electronic AutoLock?

Anyone who is looking to install an Extreme MicroCoil Grille– 500 cycles or Extreme High Performance 300 Series Grille with enhanced security. Electronic AutoLock can also be retrofit to upgrade one of these existing grilles in the field.

What is Electronic AutoLock?

Electronic AutoLock is a locking option for our Extreme MicroCoil Grille – 500 cycles and 300 Series Grilles for added security. The proprietary locks mount to each of the guides and automatically engage with no manual intervention, securing the closed grille in place while keeping intruders out. Electronic AutoLock works by automatically engaging the cylinder lock when in the closed position. It can be retrofit to an existing grille in the field, or added as an option on a new grille.

Where can Electronic AutoLock be used?

It can be used in parking garages or any application where the Extreme MicroCoil Grille – 500 Cycles Grille and the 300 Series Grilles are used. It can also be retrofitted on any of these grilles that already exist in the field  – contact us for more details.

When can Electronic AutoLock be used?

Any time, all the time. Our Electronic AutoLock provides 24/7 security without the need for 24/7 monitoring. No manual intervention is needed to engage the locks on both side of the grille’s bottom bar. It’s a “set it and forget it”-type of protection for your security grille, especially because it’s paired with our APEX SmartController.

Why should you choose Electronic AutoLock?

Electronic AutoLock provides additional security without compromising your grille's aesthetics, headroom or performance qualities. All of Cornell’s Electronic AutoLock options are compact, with less than an inch of projection past the guides for an unobtrusive, aesthetically pleasing functionality.

Remove searching for a constant “security guard” and new security staff member from your to-do list and let Electronic AutoLock protect the area behind your security grille – your steady, reliable grille option and new best friend.
