Door locks

The most common category of door locks - cutting mechanisms. They fit the best at the door, without disturbing its appearance and are easy to operate. Despite its positive qualities, they have significant disadvantages - the complexity of the installation and the weakening of the door canvase itself at the scene of the castle.

The choice of the lock will depend on the requirements that you prevent the main properties and functions of the mechanism itself. Of course, the doors are sold with already installed locks, but not always manufacturers install high-quality mechanisms, because it leads to the appreciation of the door itself.

Door locks differ in the following parameters:

1. Type of locking mechanism.
2. Type of fastening to the door canvase.
3. Appointment.

type of locking mechanism

In this case, all locks are divided into:

• suwaldor Subba castles. One of the most reliable, it is often installed in banking cash desks and storage facilities. Want to get a strong invulnerable mechanism? Choose a lock with 5 or 7 locking details (suvaldami) and it will be invulnerable from bastards. Minus mechanism in a large thickness and an uncomfortable long vein.

• cylinder Mechanisms. Consist from a familiar mortise castle, but now the cylinder (larva) acts at the site of the secrecy mechanism. The complexity of the opening of this lock provides a combination of small pins. Models with high secrecy cannot be opened with hoes. If you lose the key, you do not need to change the entire lock completely, it is enough to replace only the "larva".

• smartlocks. A group of electronic code locks operating on the principle of "smart castle". May be digital, on fingerprint, scan of the retina eye and combined. Digital locks have a business optical principle. The refresh reading system or the retina scanner is installed instead of a panel with numbers. These access restriction systems are convenient and unusual, but they will be appropriate in our Russian realities, to solve only you.

mounting Type

If you can focus on this parameter, you can choose from:

• cutting castles. The locking device is installed inside the door leaf. Despite the complexity of the installation, these mechanisms are maintained among users. Choosing from many variants of mortise locks, take into account the width of the front lock of the lock itself to the door width and the depth of the lock case. With a great depth, the lock will go deep into the case and create an empty space, and this negatively affects reliability.
• overhead or box locks. They are superimposed on the door itself and are more suitable for additional protection. Not bad if there will be a special valve with a chain additionally on such a mechanism.

appointment of castles

When choosing a locking mechanism for this criterion, focus on the type of your door. For each door, their mechanisms are manufactured. On Aliexpresfrom sold as well universal mechanisms. But their reliability is significantly inferior to the profile castles, for a specific type of door. Therefore, their versatility can affect their own security.

Castle trunk.

Padlock

The widespread use of these locks was caused, first of all, the simplicity of the installation, because sometimes no additional effort is required for it. For example, you can easily install on wrought gates the padlock, Just intercepting two rods of different half.

Do not know from what to repel when choosing a mounted castle? Focus on the following three criteria:

• the size. It is not worth buying a massive blockage lock on the mailbox or try to close the garage gate with a small aluminum lock.

• material. The most durable and durable are stainless steel and castle locks. N. wheel Castles From brass and aluminum are pretty soft and easy to cut by intruders.
• structure. Castles of various shapes must be selected individually for each type of door. The simplest open castles saw probably each, more advanced models are considered - mushroom, semi-closed or closed forms.

• protective mechanism. The most popular mounted castles on Aliexpress Castle is considered that requires entering the code for opening. It is not only convenient, as it is not necessary to carry a suitable key with you, but also practical. You can safely change the code if it became known to unauthorized people. Code locks can not only digital, but with special interesting combinations in the form of puzzles.

code Castle

This type of locking mechanism differs from the usual lock in the fact that for the opening there is not enough key, the plus it will be necessary to enter a unique code, known only to the castle owner. It is believed that the code combination significantly increases the reliability of the lock and its safety. This modern type of locking mechanism came to replace ordinary mechanical locks, providing a practically complete warranty from hacking. On A. lespresscode mechanisms are represented by two large groups:

• code mechanical lock. To open this lock, you will need to enter a specific code sequence. On mounted locks, several sets of circles are often used, a push-button dial-up panel. Mechanical locks have a caustic locking mechanism and is easily transcoding.

• electronic code castle. Its opening is impossible without a special active key or an active card. This method allows you to establish the so-called "Invisible Castle". This additional degree of protection will introduce an attacker in bewilderment, because it will not know where the key receiver is located.

Larvae for the castle

Often, the failure of the locking mechanism does not mean the need to fully replace the lock, in most cases it is enough to change the larva. An excellent solution will be the purchase of a suitable cylindered mechanism on Aliexpress.
