Let's call the client Robert. The door was of high quality:
- heavy metal sheet;
- good loops;
- expensive locks.
But the mechanism still began to work incorrectly. Upon inspection, it turned out that some of the protective fittings were installed incorrectly.
The price of a door does not guarantee correct installation
Even expensive components can perform poorly if:
- incorrectly secured;
- have backlash;
- do not correspond to each other.
Why the armor plate should be part of the system
Protective fittings should not simply be decoratively screwed to the outer sheet. Its design and fastening must comply with:
- cylinder;
- lock;
- the door itself.
What else is often installed incorrectly
For example:
- handles;
- strike plates;
- cylinders of incorrect length.
Why a final inspection of the entire door is useful
After assembly you need to check:
- operation of locks;
- backlash;
- handles;
- closing;
- interaction of crossbars with the box.
A system is only as good as its most problematic element.
