I.Anti-theft door lock coreWhat are the reasons for the interruption?
1. If the lock mechanism is jammed, it could be due to the key not being properly aligned, or due to displacement of the locking mechanism in the security door. In this case, if the key cannot be opened, you should only attempt to reset the lock mechanism and then manually depress the key to activate it and remove the key.
2. Another reason why the lock may be jammed is the presence of a security pin inside the anti-theft door. If the button is loose, turning the handle to close the door will disengage the pin, resulting in a jammed lock and the inability to open the door. Alternatively, someone may have manually disengaged the pin from the inside, which also prevents the door from opening.
Two. What to do if the anti-theft door lock is stuck?
1、Lock Mechanism Issues: In the lock mechanism, a small amount of graphite powder or pencil powder can be applied to the lock core channel periodically (every six months or year) or when the key does not insert or remove smoothly, to ensure smooth operation. This also provides protection for the lock core. However, it is crucial to avoid applying any other oil as a lubricant, as this can cause the spring to become stuck and prevent the lock from opening.
2、Lock Mechanism Issues: If the secondary locking mechanism is jammed or the mechanical drive mechanism is malfunctioning, it is recommended to replace the lock mechanism. The method for determining if the lock mechanism is damaged: Remove the lock cylinder and manually turn it, if it turns smoothly, then the lock mechanism is likely damaged.
3. If the issue is that the security door lock mechanism is jammed due to the security bolt, you can prepare a drill bit and drill a hole through the security door frame. Then, pry open the hole and check the security bolt inside, and disengage the bolt. Alternatively, you can use a pointed piece of wood to insert it from the door frame and lift the door slightly to create a gap, allowing the door lock's tongue to disengage from the frame. Finally, use a flathead screwdriver to pry open the door lock from either the inside or the outside.
