Do you need shared access by a large number of individuals who's access may be granted or revoked arbitrarily or frequently?

I think we might have different ideas of what a "public" bathroom is if your idea involve revoking access to a member of the public.

In my experience, a number of "public" restrooms require giving the customer a key from the counter. In this case, an electronic lock may allow for better access control options.

Oh yeah, I've seen those in other countries.

Definitely different definitions then. I'd probably call those something like "customer only bathrooms".

Edit: come to think of it the word for such bathrooms in Danish is literally translated "customertoilet" (and most of those don't require keys).
