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 someone's entrance. It is enough just to make sure on the intercom that the welcome guest has arrived, and press the appropriate button. Making the right choice of a suitable model for yourself is often not such an easy task, because each variety has its own purpose and design.
What to look for when choosing
Here, first of all, you need to pay attention to the fact that there are external and internal devices. Due to the fact that it is necessary to select an electromechanical lock for the gate, the second type disappears on its own. In addition, the modifications of 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 someother varieties - an electromagnetic lock or an electric latch. They also have their advantages, however, as practice shows, electromechanical locks for street gates are usually the best option.
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 with 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, here we can only note the need to pull a special cable, which does not have a very good effect on the aesthetic appearance.
Package
The standard equipment of the device includes an intercom, a power supply, a lock itself, a call panel, an overlay panel, keys, a power supply box and wires. Having all this in stock, you can install an electromechanical lock on the gate yourself. The main thing is to follow the order prescribed in the instructions. There are several ways to open the lock. This is done by supplying an electrical signal through the intercom, using a special button on its body (in cases with overhead models), as well as due to a mechanical lock.
Installing the appliance
It is recommended that the gate that requiresinstall the device, corresponded to 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 secure the three screws securely. The counterpart of the mechanism itself is mounted on the opposite side, on the porch. After this, you can start laying the connecting cable. First, it should be brought into the "guard", and then carried out into 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 lock on the gate is ready for operation.
