Restricting customers to a specific collection

With Locksmith, it is simple to lock down a specific collection, so that it can only be viewed by a specific set of customers. However, some merchants want to take it one step further and make sure that those customers can only access their collection, while the rest of the store is restricted to them.

Under "Keys", choose how these customers will gain access. You can use whatever method of access you want. The most common way of granting access in this scenario is to use "customer tags" to grant access:
Make sure the "Force open other locks" setting is turned on for this lock. Use the following guide to do this: Using the "Force open other locks" setting . This setting is important.

Part 2: Create a lock covering the rest of the store

For this key:
1. Using the following to invert the key: Inverting keys. The result is the opposite of the original key condition.
