Glass door lock maintenance guide:
1. Don’t use lubricant casually. Some friends often like to drip some lubricant into the lock eye when the door lock is astringent or tight. In this way, the door lock may be smooth soon, but because of the oil It is easy to stick to dust, and it will be easy to accumulate dust in the keyhole in the future, and form greasy putty, which will make the door lock more prone to failure.

Correct solution: Sharpen some pencil fragments or some candle fragments, blow it into the lock cylinder through a thin tube, and then insert the key and turn it several times.

2. Do not forcefully twist the key to open the door. For some time, due to the gravity of the door leaf or the reason of the door leaf, the door leaf sinks, causing the door to be locked or the door to be opened unsmoothly. At this time, it is often difficult to open and lock the door with a key. At this time, do not twist the key forcibly, so as not to break the key and increase the trouble.

3. Hold the handle when closing the door, screw the deadbolt into the lock body, and then let go after closing the door. Do not hit the door with force, otherwise the service life of the lock will be shortened.

4. During normal use, if there is any dirt, it can be removed with a dry cloth, and do not scrub with chemicals such as detergent. Otherwise, it will damage the protective film of the exposed parts and cause discoloration. Do not wipe the lock body and handle with a damp cloth, because some metal locks will rust; alloy locks will wear off the plating and lose the aesthetic effect.
