French term or phrase: organigramme
½ cylindre de surete sur organigramme type Radial NT des etablissements VACHETTE

Hello all, I'm a bit flummoxed by the presence of the word organigramme here. I've found the device but no mention of organigramme there so I must be missing something. Any input gratefully received. Unfortunately I don't have any useful context, other than that this is a lock to be installed in an office building. Thanking you all in advance,

English translation:key hierarchy chart
Explanation:
The "organigramme" is a kind of chart of which keys open which locks (see reference). I'm not quite sure how you'd squeeze a definition of that into your example sentence, though!

master key schedule


Explanation:
Received term in English. See diagram in PDF linked below.

Hierarchy is implicit in the 'master' relation and is expressed by prefixes for the tiered levels: great-grandmaster, grandmaster, master, submaster … and so on.:-)

Also called 'master keying schedule'.

organizational chart


Explanation:
An organizational chart (often called organization chart, org chart, organigram(me), or organogram(me)) is a diagram that shows the structure of an organization and the relationships and relative ranks of its parts and positions/jobs. The term is also used for similar diagrams, for example ones showing the different elements of a field of knowledge or a group of languages.

The French Encyclopédie published in France between 1751 and 1772 had one of the first organizational charts of knowledge in general.
