# Locks

The Hardware section displays the list of your hardware. To view Lock lists, utilize the filtering button located below the search bar by selecting Locks. \
The Lock list displays each individual lock in your system by its assigned lock number/identifier. You can see the hardware with which it is associated, the status of the lock as well as the power level. On the upper right-hand side, you also have the option to add new hardware by clicking the **+ Add** button. To learn more about how to add a lock make sure to visit our [**Hardware Setup**](/admin-site/modes/add-a-new-hardware.md) page.

Each of these lists can be exported into CSV files for your records by clicking the **Export** button from the three dots beside the Add button.
{% endhint %}

Here are the different statuses of the Locks:

* **Active** - hardware is available for rent.
* **Maintenance** - hardware is currently in repair by a mechanic.
* **Retired** - hardware is no longer available.
* **Stored** - Hardware is not currently in use and is kept in storage. It is not available for rent.
* **Missing** - The hardware is not in its designated location and cannot be accounted for. It is temporarily unavailable.
* **Lost** - The hardware is permanently unaccounted for and is considered lost. It is no longer available for use.
* **Rebalancing** - The hardware is being relocated to ensure a balanced distribution within the bike station. It is temporarily unavailable during this process.

## Editing a Lock

You can edit or retire a lock and click on any individual lock to view additional details — such as the lock description (mac address, bike number, vendor, power level, current status),  rentals, and maintenance tickets that are tied to the lock, a list of historical maintenance information, and event logs.

By clicking **Edit,** you can change the mac address of the lock or you can move it to a different system.

{% hint style="info" %}
Keep in mind you **cannot** move or edit a lock when it is still assigned to the hardware. You will need to unassign it to the bike by going to the assigned Bike > Click Edit > Change the lock to No Lock.&#x20;
{% endhint %}
