Before leaving the house, it is always necessary to close the door with all the locks, not only for safety, but also for prolonging the life of the locking mechanisms. About it in an interview NEWS.ru said the construction expert Fedor Vasiliev.
“It is more difficult and longer to open two or three reliable locks, and during this time someone will scare off thieves or call the police … And the second point: if one of the locks is not used for a long time, the mechanism will gradually become clogged, begin to jam. It is better to use all the locks so that the key does not get stuck, ”said Vasiliev.
Also Vasiliev announcedhow to protect front door locks from breaking. For this, according to the expert, special armor plates with a thickness of 1.5-2 mm are needed. He noted that attackers cannot break into such devices. He also recommended installing two different locks.
