Monipistelukitusjärjestelmät

Monipistelukitusjärjestelmät, commonly known as multi-point locking systems, are security devices designed to offer enhanced protection for doors and windows. Unlike traditional single-point locks, these systems engage multiple locking bolts into the frame at various points, creating a more robust and secure closure. This distributed locking mechanism significantly increases resistance to forced entry, making them a popular choice for both residential and commercial applications where security is a priority.

The operation of a multi-point locking system is typically activated by a single handle turn. This action simultaneously engages all locking points, which can include hooks, deadbolts, or roller cams. When the door or window is closed, these components extend into corresponding receivers within the frame. This comprehensive engagement prevents prying or manipulation of the door or window at different locations.

These systems are often integrated into uPVC, composite, and some aluminum doors and windows. Their design allows for a tighter seal when locked, which can also contribute to improved thermal and acoustic insulation. The complexity and number of locking points can vary depending on the specific system and its intended application, ranging from three-point systems to more elaborate configurations. Maintenance generally involves ensuring the moving parts are clean and lubricated to maintain smooth operation.
