What is a Lockshield Key?
A lockshield key is a specialised plumbing tool used to adjust the lockshield valve found on central heating radiators. The lockshield valve is usually located opposite the thermostatic radiator valve (TRV) or manual control valve and is protected by a plain cap to prevent accidental adjustment.
Using this key allows you to:
- Balance your heating system by controlling the flow of hot water through each radiator, helping ensure even heating throughout your home.
- Isolate individual radiators by fully closing the lockshield valve, allowing radiators to be removed or serviced without draining the entire heating system.
- Adjust compatible lockshield-top bib taps and stopcocks for maintenance or isolation purposes.
