Custom French Spanish style lock cylinder Manufacturers

A French door lock is a multi-point locking system fitted to a door. It usually consists of two or three latches, each with its own locking cylinder and key. When the door is closed, these latches lock the door frame in different positions at the same time, thus increasing the security of the door. French door locks are usually used on higher grade doors, such as imported solid wood doors. As French door locks can lock the door frame in different positions at the same time, they are more secure than ordinary single point locks. The materials and manufacturing processes used in French door locks are more sophisticated, making them more reliable than ordinary door locks. Due to the materials and manufacturing process, French door locks usually have a longer service life.

The Spanish door lock is a common single point lock, also known as the "Spanish deadbolt". It usually consists of a latch and a key and can be fitted on the inside or outside of the door. Spanish deadbolts are usually used on low to medium grade doors, such as plain wooden doors. As only one latch needs to be fitted, Spanish door locks are less expensive to install. If any part of the Spanish door lock needs to be replaced, maintenance costs are low. Only one key needs to be operated when opening and closing the door.
