Installation
of a cylindrical knob lock
There is a huge variety of locks used
these days. Old varieties are antiques. Some high-tech locks need your
fingerprint to lock and unlock. Other locks come in-between these two that are
used for residential and commercial reasons, known as the cylindrical locks.
The cylindricalknob locks go through
the complete door. All locks cannot do this and this is the reason cylindrical
locks are different from other locks. A common way to install a cylindrical
lock is by using the boring method. Two holes are made into the door. One hole
is larger compared to the other. A small hole is made in the door. This hole
gives an additional security layer for the lock and a metal bar can be inserted
through it. It is a two-way locking system and it is noticed in some or other
varieties on common residential and commercial locks.
The
cylindrical locks are easy to construct and simple in design and therefore, it
can be made with less money. As these locks are inexpensive, they began to
replace the motorized locks for residential and commercial purposes. This is
the reason why motorized
locks are not seen very much nowadays, except in antique buildings and old
houses.
