Mechanical Gun Safe

Safes with a mechanical lock. Safes with a mechanical combination lock are also called merely code locks, safes with a limb, a disk, and more. Prices for safes with a mechanical combination lock are higher than for safes with a key lock but lower than the cost of safes with an electronic combination lock. By the criterion of reliability, safes with a mechanical combination lock are considered to be one of the most durable and unpretentious in operation. If you keep them locked safely in time, then the excellent quality of the lock can work for decades. Maintenance of this lock is minimal when the safe is located in a dry place. The mechanical combination lock consists of a limb and a lock. Inside the castle, there are round discs with a cutout. When you rotate the dial by the given code, all the disks are set in a row with a slot, and the lock unlocks the bolt system and opens the door.

The number of discs and the quality of the parts depends on the castle’s security class and its price

Safes with a mechanical combination lock are used both at home, in the office, weapons, furniture safes and banks, storages. But to open a safe, you need patience and slowness. If the error is one division, the code must be re-typed. The mechanical combination lock differs from others in that it has a long service life. When choosing a good manufacturer, the mechanical combination lock will last for a long time and without problems. Minus the mechanical lock – the opening time is higher than the key or electronic lock. In case of emergency (during a robbery), it is difficult to open such a safe because of the worries quickly. It is necessary to take into account that sometimes you need to get weapons from the safe and such a lock soon is not your assistant. Also, you need to carefully and consistently need to treat transcoding. Very often clients inattentively read the instructions and return a new safe to the service center already with the wrong code.

In the previous material, we considered a limb safe lock of a closed type

Now find the secure code lock mechanical lock of an open class. He got a lot of prevalence. Almost every office in the city has a safe with such a lock. According to the design and the protective properties of the open limb, the lock is easier closed, despite the fact that outwardly they are very similar. But the principle of work and a set of code they are fundamentally different. The primary task of the limb lock is to limit the course of the bolt. If the combination lock is dialed – nothing prevents you from opening the safe door by pressing the handle or turning the key. If the code is not dialed, the bolt will not move – it rests against the code disks. The open-type lock does not have a screw. As the locking elements, the code disks themselves, that is, the core elements of the lock will act here.

The principle of the open-type coded limb lock is as follows

The dial knob and code discs have one axis of rotation. The first drive is the lead. It is rigidly fixed to the axle by a cotter pin. The other three or two are the slave; they can only spin from the master disc. In this case, the master disc directly interacts only with the second, the second disk transmits the moment of rotation to the third, and the third – to the fourth. Always and so, the connection of drives when rotating in one direction occurs in this order and gradually. Disks touch each other through the ledges. A characteristic metallic click can hear the moment of contact of one disc with another. Each code disk of an open limb lock has a code slot. With correctly typed code, the code slots on all four discs line up into a single code slot. Now the door of the safe door is not blocked, and it falls free into the standard groove when you turn the key or the handle.

To dial the code, you must:

1. Scroll the limb handle clockwise three times by skipping the first digit of the code past the mark on the index ring. Put the first digit of the code just opposite the label of the index ring for the fourth match.
2. Turn the limb handle counterclockwise. We expose the second digit of the code precisely opposite the label of the index ring for the third match.
3. Rotate the dial knob clockwise. We detect the third digit of the code just opposite the name of the index ring at the second match.
4. While rotating the limb knob counterclockwise, stop when the fourth digit of your code rises precisely opposite the index ring mark. The system is typed. Turn the key or the safe handle to the opening side and open the door.
