Great cylinder from the middle price category!

A comment

Recently moved to a new building. There, the developer installed the front door, which is not very durable with a guardian lever lock and a cylinder lock of the same brand with the fuaro cylinder (larva) (photo). I have nothing against this brand, but this larva was weak and we decided to replace it.

Selected from the middle price category, since the door is not the most durable. The choice fell on Apecs with a punched key. I have no comments, it works properly. The main thing is to lubricate the lock bolts once a year. If you are looking for a larva for a stutter from an average price category - feel free to choose Apecs!

pros

Made of brass.
It is patented.
It has good protection against hacking.
Price.
Thick fixing screw.

Minuses

Not.

Weak door handles

A comment

The door handle (internal) was enough for a year of use. Broke because it is made of salumin, and not from normal metal. Now the square periodically flies out and because of this I can not get home.

pros

Minuses

Weak design

Term of use

less than a month

Locks Apecs, I am completely satisfied

A comment

I have a double entrance door, on the first there is an Apecs-brand lock, on the second a cheaper Chinese counterpart. The locks were installed at one time, the first one works properly, without problems, and the second one broke even half a year after installation. Without hesitation, I decided to put the Apecs lock on the second door, the more so in the operation it proved to be the best.

There were no problems with the installation, nothing complicated here, I had to drill a couple of times and that's it. The design of the locks is stylish, minimalist, they are made of high-quality and durable material. Each lock has a set of 6 keys, and this also can be attributed to the merits, you do not have to make duplicates.

The Apecs brand, completely suits me, it produces stylish and most importantly high-quality locks. I advise, at least they do not fail me.

I do not recommend buying mortise locks!

A comment

I have two Apecs locks, one padlock and one mortise.The first one has been working properly for several years installed outdoors, although under a canopy. I open / close it several times a day, there are no complaints against it (though rubber seals have fallen off, but I close my eyes to it), I am completely satisfied with the lock.
But with a mortise lock, things are not so good. I don’t close the door with a key at all, I only use the latch. The lock was naturally lubricated, but nevertheless, the lock is jamming steadily in the closed position of the door. I'm already tired of this, now I am forced to drill the larva and thereby get rid of this problem.
Based on my experience, I can only recommend padlocks from this manufacturer. But it’s not worth paying attention to mortise ones, just torment yourself with them and throw money away.

pros

padlocks normal

Minuses

terrible mortise

Term of use

more than five years

APECS SC-M70-Z-C - flimsy, low-quality lock

A comment

I was tormented with my castle, so I decided to write in order to warn all potential buyers about the quality. I have installed a cylindrical lock mechanism for the lock from the manufacturer of the APECS SC-M70-Z-C series, in gold.

I'll start first, my core in the lock broke, I had to change it urgently and at that time only the core from APECS SC-M70-Z-C series came up.

Advertising on this lock is certainly impressive, which only manufacturers do not promise: high secrecy, protection against tampering with a master key, hardened rod and others.

Lock size 30X10X30, warranty from the manufacturer for 3 years. the lock is closed from the side of the street with a key, and from the side of the apartment with a mechanical latch. In addition to the lock, 5 sets of keys were attached.
There were no problems with the installation, but during the operation the lock proved to be not the best. It is rather flimsy, it closes just one turn. Pull only on a weak three.

pros

spare keys, accessories included, easy installation.

Minuses

bad defense.

Term of use

more than one year

The Basic padlock completely suits me.

A comment

About a year ago, I bought Apecs Basic padlock. The castle is simple, hanging. The Chinese brand produces low-cost products, but at the same time, the quality of the goods almost does not suffer.
My castle was packed in a cardboard box with information about the castle. The padlock is made in metallic black; the logo of the manufacturer’s brand is embossed on it. The elongated eye is made of steel, the groove of the cylindrical mechanism is located at the bottom of the lock. The lock opens and closes easily, it is not difficult to use it.

In addition to the lock, three sets of keys are attached, the principle of operation of the mechanism is simple. Just insert the key, turn it, the ear opens.

The cost of the castle is 151 rubles, for me it's just a great price, you can say almost for nothing. So I recommend that the brand is responsible, it produces solid products.

pros

- compact
- inexpensive
- reliable (for its segment),
- good quality
- competent and understandable instructions,
- attractive box

Minuses

- not for valuables.

Term of use

more than one year
