The garage is often an underestimated entry point to your home and this is exactly where modern security solutions come in. With the locking magnets Lock and Lock RC 2 from SOMMER, you can effectively and reliably increase the burglary protection of your garage door. In this article, you’ll learn how these systems work, what benefits they offer, and the differences between the two variants.
Why additional security makes sense
Many garage doors already offer a solid level of basic security. However, standard solutions quickly reach their limits during targeted break-in attempts.
An additional mechanical protection system ensures that your door remains reliably closed even under strong force.
The locking magnet blocks your door with a force of up to 300 kg, making it significantly harder for intruders.
