Programmable locking dispenser and method of use

A lockable assembly for a urinal valve is provided. The lockable assembly includes a shaft assembly configured to displace portions of the urinal valve and a housing body configured to connect to the urinal valve and further configured to support the shaft assembly. The lockable assembly is configured to allow selective operation of the urinal valve between an unlocked flushable state and a locked non-flushable state. In the locked non-flushable state, the shaft assembly is prevented from displacing portions of the urinal valve and in the unlocked flushable state, the shaft assembly is configured to displace portions of the urinal valve to allow a flow of water to pass through the urinal valve.
