Abstract

A locking key is releasably securable to one or more support trays upon a pedestal of an elevated flooring system. The locking key includes a lateral head having a through hole and an axially extending, columnar body coupled with the lateral head. The columnar body defines an internal channel, continuous and in axial registry with the through hole. At least one locking tab is coupled with the columnar body proximate a base end of the columnar body, the at least one locking tab extending laterally inwardly into the internal channel. The at least one locking tab is configured to selectively engage and disengage the locking key to a locking head of the pedestal, via a twist and lock type connection, to releasably secure the one or more support trays upon the pedestal.
