Which material is the best for the smart lock? In the selection of smart lock materials, we should not be careless. We should choose solid and practical materials to ensure the safety of the door. In this article, Xiaoke will show you the material of smart lock, so that you can choose the smart lock that suits you more professionally.

Generally speaking, the material of smart door lock mainly refers to the material of the panel, which is also visible to consumers.

The material and processing technology of the panel directly determine the firmness and durability of the panel, which is the most important embodiment of the appearance value.

At present, the materials used on the panel mainly include the following: stainless steel, iron, zinc alloy, plastic, glass, etc.

01 Stainless steel

The general stainless steel panel mainly refers to 304 stainless steel, which has high hardness, high strength, and natural advantages in terms of anti-violence and cost.

However, it has a natural disadvantage, that is, it is difficult to process, which makes it rare to use stainless steel as smart lock panel on the market. The difficulty in forming stainless steel material will limit the shape casting of smart lock.

However, the stainless steel panel has the advantages of high reliability, strong corrosion resistance, and the surface is not easy to be damaged. We look forward to a technological breakthrough to make the stainless steel material meet the needs of the complex appearance of the intelligent lock.

02 Iron

In the era of mechanical door locks, iron is the largest user of door lock applications. Although its strength and surface treatment are not as good as stainless steel, it is the most economical and cost-effective.

It has sufficient weight, general molding difficulty, medium surface treatment and electroplating, but it also has general strength, complex materials and general surface corrosion resistance.

In the era when mechanical door locks are being upgraded to intelligent door locks, iron, which was originally the most widely used in door locks, has been surpassed by other materials, especially zinc alloy.
