The electromechanical lock on the gate has become a very useful invention for a modern person, because now you do not need to run outside to open the entrance for someone. It is enough just to make sure through the intercom that the welcome guest has arrived, and press the corresponding button. Making the right choice of the right model for yourself is often not such a simple task, because each variety has its own purpose and design.
What to look for when choosing
Here, first of all, it is necessary to pay attention to the fact that there are external and internal devices. Due to the fact that it is necessary to choose an electromechanical lock on the gate, the second variety disappears by itself. In addition, modifications to the device differ in the supported voltage, the method of control and installation, and, of course, the type of doors on which they are mounted. Going to the store, you should know all these parameters. It should be noted that there managers can offer some other varieties - an electromagnetic lock or an electric latch. They also have their advantages, however, as practice shows, the best option is usually electromechanical locks for a street gate.
Compared to other varieties, these models are more expensive. This can be explained by their practicality, reliability and durability. When buying, it is recommended to give preference to those options that can also be opened using keys, because there are different cases. It is desirable that the manufacturer is a well-known company. A striking example of such products is the electromechanical lock on the gate "Cisa". As for the shortcomings, it can be noted here except that the need to pull a special cable, which does not very well affect the aesthetic appearance.
Equipment
The standard equipment includes a doorphone, power supply, lock itself, call panel, patch panel, keys, power supply box and wires. Having all this available, you can install the electromechanical lock on the gate yourself. The main thing is to follow the procedure prescribed in the instructions. You can open the lock in several ways. This is done by supplying an electrical signal through the intercom, using a special button on its body (in cases with surface models), as well as through a mechanical lock.
Instrument Installation
It is recommended that the gate on which the device is to be installed matches its level. In the case when the lock is overhead, it is recommended that at least in one place the profile is connected to the slave in the form of the letter "T". This will ensure a secure fit with three screws. The reciprocal part of the mechanism itself is mounted on the opposite side, on the narthex. After this, you can start laying the connecting cable. First, it should be taken to the "guard", and then held in the mounting box. This can be done in various ways. It all depends on the physical characteristics and type of gate. Next, the wire must be connected to the reader and the output unit. After that, the cable can be hidden in a PVC pipe, and the electromechanical gate lock is ready for use.
