Articles, Multi-point latchesSecure Your Company's Products and Enclosures
When researching the best security for your company's products, your indoor or outdoor enclosures, and your peace of mind, you want the best locking mechanisms available on the market. In addition, you want to ensure secure access control, ease of use, and the highest level of protection. The strength and efficacy of your security is the top priority.
The Most Common Types of Locks
Deadbolts, padlocks, and cam locks/quarter-turns are the most common types of locks on the market. They each have their own advantages and disadvantages, so it is important to choose the right type of lock for your needs.
Deadbolts are the most secure type of lock, as they cannot be opened without a key. However, they can be difficult to install and can be expensive. Padlocks are a more affordable option, but they are not as secure as deadbolts. Cam locks/quarter-turns are a good compromise between security and affordability. They are easy to install and can be used on a variety of surfaces.
When choosing a lock, it is important to consider the security needs of your home or business. If you need the most secure possible lock, a deadbolt is the best option. If you are looking for an affordable and easy-to-install lock, a padlock or cam lock/quarter-turn is a good choice.
What is a Multi-Point Locking System?
A multi-point locking system is a locking system that provides multiple points of latching operated by a single actuation point. This means that the lock can be engaged at multiple points along the edge of the door, providing a more secure seal and making it more difficult to break into.
DIRAK's multi-point locking systems can contain as many as 5 latching points, providing additional security, clamping force, ease of use, and access to the products in which it is installed.
Multi-point locking systems are a good choice for businesses and homeowners who want the highest level of security for their doors.
