Nowadays, people’s living conditions are good. Many families pay more attention to the choice of security doors when decorating their houses. If you want to install security doors, I believe everyone will be entangled in the choice of door locks. Some friends will often be entangled in choosing smart door locks or mechanical door locks. So which is safer, the smart door lock or the mechanical door lock? In view of this problem, the following is a detailed introduction for everyone.
1. Which is safer, the smart door lock or the mechanical door lock?
Is the smart door lock safe? Excluding the inferior fingerprint locks of some unscrupulous merchants, the configuration of smart door locks is safer than that of traditional mechanical door locks.
First of all, smart door locks are generally C-class lock cores. Most of the general mechanical locks for security doors are equipped with Class A lock cores. According to the provisions of the Ministry of Public Security GA/T73-2015 "Mechanical Anti-theft Locks", the safety levels of anti-theft locks are divided into three levels: A, B and C, with Class A being the lowest and increasing in turn, and the opening standard of Class C lock defense technology is 10 minutes. General brand smart door locks are equipped with C-class lock cores, which prevent technical unlocking and have high security level.
Secondly, the material of intelligent door lock is superior to that of mechanical lock, and it has strong anti-damage performance. Smart door locks are generally made of metal. Brand merchants are mainly made of stainless steel or zinc alloy, and some will choose aluminum alloy. However, the material of mechanical locks is relatively poor. The metal material of smart door locks is far superior to mechanical locks in terms of durability and explosion-proof performance. Traditional mechanical locks are easily unlocked by technology because of their low anti-destructive performance, such as tin foil.
Thirdly, smart door locks should choose brands certified by the Ministry of Public Security. It is rumored on the Internet that Tesla coil "black box" unlocks, in fact, because these inferior smart lock manufacturers have not made electromagnetic protection design in structure, and the general strength manufacturers will make circuit design protection in strict accordance with the requirements of the Ministry of Public Security. Article 22 in the inspection report of the Ministry of Public Security clearly points out that the anti-magnetic field technology opening test: under the test that the normal working electronic anti-theft lock cannot be opened under the action of strong magnetic field, Article 23 clearly points out that the normal working electronic anti-electric field technology opening test.
Second, what are the skills for purchasing smart door locks?
1. Look at the material: there are three main materials for making smart lock fingerprint locks, namely plastic, zinc alloy and stainless steel. Among them, the durability, fire and explosion resistance of plastic are the worst, followed by zinc alloy and stainless steel.
2. Function: First, test the response speed and accuracy of fingerprint unlocking. Let the clerk enter your fingerprint first, which is also a step to test the function of fingerprint lock. When recording fingerprints, observe the difficulty of the clerk to enter fingerprints. If a fingerprint cannot be recognized after being entered many times, it can almost be judged that the resolution of the fingerprint lock is not high.
3, look at the ferrule: buy a fingerprint lock, in addition to looking at the lock body, the ferrule is also a very important part, this part is often ignored by consumers. Look at the ferrule from three aspects: look at the material of the ferrule, look at the lock point of the ferrule and look at the function of the ferrule.
4. See additional services: The high-tech nature of fingerprint lock determines that it is not an ordinary commodity, and it needs to be installed by professional technicians before it can be used normally, and problems encountered in the use process also need to be solved by professionals, so be sure to ask about the relevant installation and after-sales services when purchasing.
Third, what should I pay attention to when using smart door locks?
1, to reduce direct contact with water, any kind of electronic products, there is this taboo, smart locks are no exception, electronic products will have electronic components or circuit boards or something, these originals are waterproof.
2, to avoid unprofessional disassembly, because the home smart door lock is a high-tech electronic product, the structure inside is more complicated, if the structure inside is not clear, it is best not to disassemble it without authorization. If you are really helpless, you can read the instruction manual first, or you can consult the manufacturer and find a special after-sales person to help you solve it.
3. The handle sheath of the household smart door lock should be removed after the door lock is officially put into use. Moreover, in daily use, the handle is the most commonly used component in the door switch, and its flexibility directly affects the use of the door lock, so please don’t hang heavy objects on the handle, or it will affect the lock structure and lead to a decline in flexibility when opening the door.
4. After the user purchases the home smart door lock, the general manufacturer will be equipped with a battery. Under the normal use of the battery, it can generally be used for one year. After the battery life is used up, it is necessary to replace the battery again. When replacing the battery, it is necessary to pay attention to the uniform model of the battery, preferably all of one brand, and at the same time pay attention to the correct connection and placement of the battery. When the built-in battery is used up and the lock cannot be opened, an external power supply can be used. Generally, smart locks are equipped with an external power supply interface in case of emergency.
For the purchase of door locks, I suggest that you must pay attention to the method of purchase, and choose the door locks produced by regular manufacturers, so that the quality can be guaranteed. The above is the introduction about which is safe, the intelligent door lock or the mechanical door lock. When using the door lock, we must pay attention to avoid direct contact between the door lock and water, otherwise it will affect the quality of the door lock.
