Locks – a barrier to ensure security and privacy

Common lock materials include:

Zinc alloy – The mainstream choice, high strength, corrosion resistance, easy to mold into complex shapes, and excellent electroplating finish.

Stainless steel – The most durable and rust-resistant, suitable for humid environments (such as bathroom cabinets and kitchens) or demanding locations.

Aluminum alloy – Lightweight, modern, typically anodized, and available in various colors.

But it's not just about the material; surface treatment is also crucial for the product's appearance and durability. Common surface treatments include:

Electroplating: Chrome (bright chrome, brushed chrome), nickel, bronze, antique bronze, black nickel, gold, etc. Pay attention to the plating thickness and salt spray test time (e.g., 24-hour, 48-hour salt spray test), as these directly affect rust resistance.

Spray coating: Special colors and textures can be achieved, such as matte black and white.

Anodizing: Primarily used for aluminum alloys, offering excellent wear resistance.

Our locks' brushed nickel surface has passed a 48-hour neutral salt spray test, ensuring they remain new even in humid coastal areas without rust or fading.

Having understood the materials and surface treatments of locks, we need to choose the products that best suit our needs based on their characteristics.

Generally, locks include surface-mounted locks: Installed on the drawer panel surface. Simple installation, low cost, commonly found in industrial-style furniture such as filing cabinets and tool cabinets, or furniture where aesthetics are not a primary concern.

The biggest advantage of surface-mounted locks is their ease of installation, requiring no slotting, effectively saving you installation costs and time.

Inset locks, on the other hand, are installed inside the drawer panel, leaving no visible installation marks on the surface, resulting in a clean and aesthetically pleasing appearance. They are the preferred choice for modern and high-end furniture. When choosing embedded locks, the goal is to create a cleaner, more streamlined look for the furniture, perfectly aligning with the modern minimalist design trend.

Tube locks are the most common product for drawer and cabinet doors, and also a major focus of our company's business. This product features a cylindrical lock body, installed through pre-drilled holes in the drawer panel. It is highly versatile and widely used in various drawers and cabinet doors. As the most common type on the market, it boasts strong compatibility, meeting the installation requirements of almost all standard hole diameters.

For different usage scenarios, our company will select the most suitable lock type for you.
