Types Of Glass Door Locks

Handle Glass Lock Materials
With the booming development of the glass door lock market, its types have become increasingly diverse. From different brands and materials to functional features, each glass door lock has its unique characteristics. This diversity not only meets the personalized needs of different consumers but also brings continuous innovation to the industry. Handle glass locks use a variety of materials for their handles, including zinc alloy, copper, aluminum, stainless steel, plastic, wood, and ceramic. These materials undergo special treatments, such as electroplating and electrostatic spraying, making the handles both wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant. When choosing a handle, in addition to ensuring it coordinates with the home décor style, attention should also be paid to its load-bearing capacity. Generally speaking, a high-quality handle should be able to withstand a pulling force of over 6 kg.

 

Single-Latch Mortise Locks
Single-latch mortise locks are simple and practical, equipped with only one square latch. They are very suitable for places with frequent access, such as the entrances of shops, cinemas, hotels, and the passageways of hotels and office buildings. Depending on the configuration of the lock cylinder, it can be divided into single-cylinder locks and double-cylinder locks. A single-headed lock features only one pin tumbler cylinder on the exterior side of the lock body, opened and locked with a key, while the other side is operated by a knob. A double-headed lock, on the other hand, has pin tumbler cylinders on both the exterior and interior sides of the lock body, requiring a key to open or lock from both sides.

Single-Latch Push-Button Mortise Lock: This type of lock features a unique design with only a single beveled latch. It comes with a handle, one side housing the lock cylinder, while the interior side uses a knob on the handle for locking. In the unlocked state, the lock can be easily opened from both inside and outside using the handle, primarily for wind protection. Once locked, the handle is locked for security. This type of lock is widely used in office doors and residential interior doors.
