Door locks are the 1st security barrier in our homes to protect us and our families.
Previously, the door locks used in our homes are usually the normal locking method, and in recent years, magnetic locks have also become popular.
Magnetic locks in the market with excellent performance, became the choice of many people, can be said to be "red", but at the same time they also have a lot of defects.
If these shortcomings can not be solved, will eventually "fall off the altar", today we also come together to understand the magnetic lock it.
【Advantages of magnetic lock】
①Switching noise is very small
One of the biggest advantages of the magnetic lock lies in its noise is very small.
Ordinary locks in the process of switching will produce some noise, but the magnetic lock is relying on the principle of magnetic attraction to realize the closure and opening, in the use of almost no noise.
Magnetic locks, when in use, can be perfectly stuck through the magnetic attraction, so that even if it is pushed by external forces, there is no big sound, relatively speaking, is relatively quiet, not easy to affect our rest and life.
In addition to this, the magnetic lock will fit a little better, the gap between the door frame and the door will become very small, so that after closing the door can play a better acoustic effect, but also can help to reduce the outdoor noise.
② More convenient to use
In the use of traditional mortise locks, whether it is closed or open, we need to turn the handle before the door can be closed and opened, magnetic lock will be more convenient and simple. Ready to close the door, we only need to pull the door handle to close the door, so that the magnetic lock will automatically close, and close the door when the noise is very small, the closing effect will be very good, the door will be closed very tight.
When opening the door, we also only need to gently press the door handle, the lock tongue will be automatically popped open, the door will be opened directly, as long as a gentle push.
Whether it is closing or opening the door, it will be more labor-saving and convenient.
【Disadvantages of magnetic locks】
Although it is said and traditional door locks compared to the magnetic lock does have certain advantages, but we can also find magnetic lock sales are not as good as before, has been from the "red hot" slowly to "fall off the altar", it is because the magnetic lock also has certain Disadvantages.
①Higher price
Magnetic locks are a bit more expensive compared to regular door locks.
Ordinary door locks a lock may need a few dozen dollars or a couple hundred dollars, but magnetic locks will rarely see less than a hundred dollars, most of them are in the three to five hundred dollars or so.
(The reference is to a simple door lock and does not add the cost of the door and installation.)
②Failure rate is relatively high
Magnetic lock is really convenient to use, but because of its internal structure and ordinary door locks are not quite the same, so relatively speaking, the failure rate will be higher, ordinary door locks basically will not be damaged, magnetic locks will have the possibility of some minor problems.
Magnetic locks often fail to close properly.
Sometimes you will find that the home of the magnetic suction lock is not completely closed, the door lock and the door set there will be a gap between the door, the closure is not in place to close the door is not tight.
③Inconvenient maintenance
As mentioned earlier, the structure of the magnetic lock is more complex, and also prone to some minor malfunction problems, but also because of its complex structure, so in the maintenance of the time is also particularly troublesome, a lot of friends for the internal structure of the magnetic lock are not enough to understand, there is no way to repair their own.
If the home of the magnetic lock has some failure problems, basically can only find a professional door to door repair, repair costs are not low.
In the event of malfunctioning problems, it will not only affect our use, but also cause some unnecessary costs.
