Product Information

A rim shashlock is a type of locking mechanism commonly used on doors, particularly in older or traditional designs. It consists of a lock body (rim lock) mounted on the surface of the door, typically on the interior side, with a latch or bolt that can be operated via a key, turn knob, or lever. Rim shashlocks provide both locking and latching functions, making them a secure and practical solution for doors where a surface-mounted lock is desired. Key Features: - **Surface-Mounted**: Unlike traditional mortise locks, a rim shashlock is mounted on the surface of the door, making installation easier without the need for cutting into the door. - **Dual Functionality**: It combines both a latch (for everyday use) and a locking mechanism (for securing the door), providing an all-in-one solution for both convenience and security. - **Durable Materials**: Typically made from materials such as brass, steel, or zinc, rim shashlocks are designed to offer durability, strength, and long-lasting performance. - **Simple Operation**: Operated by a key, turn knob, or lever, rim shashlocks are easy to use while offering reliable security. They can be locked from the inside or outside, depending on the design. - **Vintage or Classic Style**: Often used in older homes, cottages, or historic buildings, the rim shashlock is a popular choice for maintaining traditional aesthetics while offering modern security. - **Versatile Applications**: Suitable for wooden or metal doors, rim shashlocks are often found on internal and external doors in both residential and commercial settings. Rim shashlocks are a convenient and reliable locking solution for doors, combining a simple design with the functionality required for everyday security.
