Anti-theft locks are also risky lock industry standards to be improved

Mr. Huang, a citizen of Beijing, has recently traveled to the major building materials cities in the city, mainly to change a new lock for his old security door. However, after many purchases, Mr. Huang had to choose to replace a new security door. "The security door of our house was bought 10 years ago. The merchant said that this door can only be equipped with two or three types of anti-theft locks. But After reading these locks, I found that their safety could not be guaranteed.” On January 14, Mr. Huang told reporters that in some of the more well-known building materials markets, he was told that his old security door could only be equipped with that. The whole is a rectangular shape, the lock is a cylinder, and the key is a cross-shaped lock. "These locks look very thin and the structure is relatively simple. What worries me more is that these locks do not have the certificate of conformity such as the instruction manual and the quality warranty card at all. I bought this kind of door lock, just in case I got the 'tin foil' The thief who unlocked the technology was smashed, and the loss was big," said Mr. Huang.

Mr. Huang’s fears are not superfluous. According to media reports, some people who are proficient in unlocking technology can use the tin foil and auxiliary tools to open the security door lock of ordinary residents in one minute. According to a recent report by Anhui Satellite TV, from the end of 2010 to the present, more than 600 households in Hefei City of the province have been stolen by lawless elements using tin foil.

Low-cost anti-theft lock without instructions

Recently, the reporter went to some large building materials and home furnishing cities in Beijing to conduct on-the-spot investigation and interviews on the security door market.

On January 15, the reporter went to Lanjing Lijia Building Materials City in Fengtai District. In the building materials city hardware area, the reporter saw a number of shops with security door locks. In a shop, the reporter asked the merchant to provide relevant samples on the grounds of replacing the anti-theft lock. "Old security door? Can only change this structure is simple, each 40 yuan." The owner said, pointing to a rectangular lock on the counter told reporters. The reporter picked up the lock and saw that the material was stainless steel. After inserting the key of the cross shape, it was opened with force, and the lock bolts of the three cylinders popped out.

The reporter noticed that the lock trademark was “strength”. After opening the package of the lock, the reporter found that there was no paper product manual and warranty card, only some faint text printed on the thin plastic bag of the packaging lock.

In the interview with the other shops in the building materials city, the reporter learned that the door lock structure that can be replaced by the old security door is the same or similar to the lock sold by the above-mentioned merchants, but the price is also from 35 yuan to 90 depending on the material. Yuan does not wait. In the lock sample package provided by the salesperson, the reporter also did not see the paper product manual and warranty card of the relevant locks.
