ABUS 797 C – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the ABUS KeyGarage 797 hang on a door handle or a gate railing without drilling?
That's what the 797 is built for. It uses a shackle rather than wall screws, so it hangs on a lever, knob, railing or gate bar with no fixing into the door or wall. The shackle opening gives 1-27/64 inches of horizontal clearance and 1-59/64 inches vertical, with a 10/32 inch shackle diameter, so measure the bar or lever you plan to hang it on against those numbers. Both the shackle and the housing are plastic coated so it won't scratch the door face while it swings.
2) How many keys and fobs will the ABUS 797 KeyGarage actually hold?
Up to 20 keys, or 14 code cards. That capacity is why property managers use it as a single drop point for a whole building rather than a one-key lockbox: master keys, unit keys and access cards for a turnover crew all fit in one box. Housing measures 84 x 119 x 44 mm.
3) Should I get the shackle KeyGarage 797 or the wall-mount 787?
It comes down to whether you want a permanent fixing point. The 787 mounts to a wall, indoors or in a protected outdoor spot. The 797 carries a shackle so it hangs on a door handle, gate or railing and moves with you, which suits a rented unit, a job trailer, or anywhere you can't drill. The 797 shackle is shaped so it doesn't protrude into the space it protects, so it won't foul the door swing.
4) Can the ABUS 797 KeyGarage stay outside in rain and winter weather?
Yes. A plastic protective cover slides over the dial mechanism to shield it from weather, and the body is solid metal with a zinc die-cast locking cover. That's the construction that decides it: the dial is the vulnerable part on a combination box, and on the 797 it sits behind a cover rather than open to the elements.
5) Is the ABUS KeyGarage 797 a combination box or does it need a key?
Combination only, set on a dial. You set the code yourself and pass it to whoever needs access, then change it when that access ends. There is no key to cut or track, which is the point for handing a unit to a rotating group: trades, cleaners, service techs, short-term guests.
6) Will the ABUS KeyGarage 797 scratch a painted or finished door?
Both the housing and the shackle are plastic coated specifically to keep them off the door finish. That matters when the box hangs on a lever and swings against the face every time the door moves, which is where an uncoated steel lockbox chews through paint on a leasing office or unit door.
7) Is the ABUS 797 KeyGarage rated for commercial use or just homes?
Commercial. ABUS classes the 797 C as a commercial-duty product, and the build backs it up: solid metal housing with a pressure-cast zinc locking cover rather than a stamped shell. Typical commercial uses are apartment buildings, car rental lots, service and contractor access, and holiday lets.
8) What model do I order for the shackle version of the ABUS KeyGarage?
The shackle version is the ABUS KeyGarage 797 C, sold as a single model with no finish or size options to specify. It ships as the dial combination box with the shackle attached; there's no separate mounting hardware to add since nothing gets fixed to the building.
