Restricted access allows you to use the login privilege only for those who have the key to the lock installed. Human nature does not allow hoping that some people lack the desire to use someone else's property, which is why castles were invented. The safety of property depends on their quality and reliability, so the choice of device should be approached very carefully. The key parameters that need to be paid attention to when choosing a lock are:

  • If it is necessary to replace a failed lock, the choice must take into account the fit of the mounting dimensions, or the possibility of reworking them without disturbing the integrity of the door leaf;
  • Direction of opening the door;
  • Thickness, type (interroom or entrance), material of manufacture (plastic, glass, wood or metal) and design feature of the door leaf (solid or hollow);
  • The presence of a new lock protection against hacking, additional "secrets", etc. features that can resist the interference of unauthorized persons in the design.
  • The cost of the device.

The latter factor is the higher, the more levels of protection the lock has. The cost is also influenced by the popularity of the brand, which is usually directly dependent on the quality of the mechanism and its safety characteristics.
