First, look at the selection of materials

The lock material on the market is basically divided into stainless steel, copper and zinc alloy. Stainless steel has high strength, strong corrosion resistance and no discoloration. It is the best lock material; copper is more versatile, with excellent mechanical properties and high price; high quality zinc alloy locks are strong and wear resistant, corrosion resistant and easy to form. There are also beautiful glass products, such as Glass Door Handle. With the maturity of processing technology and the improvement of surface treatment oxide film layer, aluminum hardware doors and windows have now interpreted the mid-to-high end trend of the market and occupied more and more market share.


Second, look at the surface treatment

Surface treatment is roughly divided into electroplating, spraying and coloring. The lock forms a dense protective film on the surface of the product through surface treatment, which acts as anti-corrosion and anti-rust, making the lock more beautiful and durable. A dense protective film is also the standard for measuring the quality of the lock. Most of the quality locks are electroplated, the coating is fine, smooth, uniform, moderate, brightly colored, with no signs of bubbles, rust and oxidation.


Third, see the implementation standards

Foreign countries have very strict standards for hardware door and window locks, so the quality of imported products is relatively high. We can feel the quality of the lock by hand. Generally speaking, the weight of the lock is relatively high; the lock body can not be pointed, and the tip is easy to injure, especially the lock handle end, the lock tongue and the lock body are three positions; the lock spring is good. Flexible opening, high sensitivity and long service life. There are also many styles of locks, so be sure to keep in mind the style of the interior doors.


In addition, select high-quality hardware doors and windows, and don't forget the daily maintenance. The quality of hardware accessories also affects the life of doors and windows. Good hardware should look thick and the surface gloss should be good. The protective layer is dense and has no scratches. The important point is that opening should be flexible. If you want to use the doors and windows for a long time, you can only extend the service life of the hardware door and window accessories through the usual maintenance. So how to properly maintain the hardware door and window accessories to extend the service life?


(1) Stainless steel handles and other stainless steel hardware door and window fittings can be scrubbed with a brightener to increase the brightness.

(2) Moving parts such as hinges, hanging wheels and casters may be degraded due to the adhesion of dust during long-term movement. One or two drops of lubricating oil can be kept smooth every six months.

(3) It is necessary to pay attention to the direction of the rotation of the handle and avoid the use of dead force. In particular, teach children not to hang on the door handle, which is both dangerous and may cause damage to the inner door. Once the lock is broken, basically the house is like undefended, and the security risks are very big!

(4) When the lock cylinder of the Glass Door Lock is not sensitive enough, a small amount of black powder can be scraped from the pencil lead and gently blown into the lock hole. This is because the graphite component is an excellent solid lubricant. Do not allow the lubricant to drip as it will adhere to the dust more easily.


The above is the standard for how to choose hardware doors and windows, I hope to help everyone.
