Abstract

The universal opener (10) includes at least first and second openers (30, 70). A third opener (120, 146) may be selectively attached to the body (12) in a dock (122). The first opener includes a bottom wall (32) and a rear wall (32). The first opener includes a detent (50) extending up from the bottom wall. The second opener is disposed in a slot (72) in the body. The second opener includes a pair of pins (88) configured to interact with the locking mechanism on a media security container (84). The second opener also includes a spring-loaded grabber (96) that holds the container when the container is being unlocked. The universal opener further includes an interlock system (204) that selectively prevents each of the openers from being used when the system is moved to the locked position.
