Nano Metal Roller Latching System

For Unmatched Security, Nano Metal Roller Latching System

Vandalism and break-in theft are increasingly serious problems for schools, businesses and industry.

Lyon Engineers have developed a new, patent pending locker latching system that utilizes nano metal roller technology to provide up to three times the break-in protection compared to existing locker latching systems. In this case, "break-in protection" is measured as the pounds of force required to pull a locker door open in a variety of laboratory tests simulating real life. See charts at right.

Features

  • Nano metal roller- same high tech powdered metal as auto transmission gears.
  • Zamak 3 zinc alloy latch finger- for up to 4 times the tensile strength than nylon.
  • An independent study concludes that the nano metal roller latching system has passed their 40,000 test cycles, which translates to decades of flawless security.
  • The nano metal roller latch is spring loaded for smooth and flawless performance.
  • New nylon tamper-resistant lockbar guide ensures proper lockbar alignment for smooth operation, while reducing overall noise by eliminating metal-to-metal contact.
  • Nano metal roller latching system works with the tamper guard and recessed handle latching systems.
