Locks with return spring

Return-spring locks are highly versatile and reliable solutions that are ideal for industrial and professional applications and have the unique feature of always returning to the closed position. The spring built into the barrel automatically returns the lock to the closed position when the key is released, ensuring convenience and safe use. These locks are perfect for technical cabinets, industrial furniture and professional furnishings that need additional security due to the automatic return that reduces the chance of forgetting the lock open. They offer a wide range of customizable locks, with internal plate-cylinder mechanisms, 1/4-turn push-to-close, and sturdy manufacturing materials such as die-cast metal. Available in different finishes such as chrome-plated, galvanized, and nickel-plated, they ensure resistance to wear and corrosion.

OMR Locks offers locks with return spring suitable for a wide variety of needs and can customize numerous locking solutions with this return mechanism. Ask our salesperson for more information on return spring models!

Approfondimento su: Locks with return spring

Return spring locks are designed to simplify the frequent opening and closing of doors, lids, and technical cabinets. Choosing the right lock depends on several factors: the application, the type of key, and the locking required. Reversible flat keys offer greater security, while triangular or square shapes provide more sermplic and immediate access. Hole diameter varies between 15 mm and 22 mm; fastening can be with nuts, screws or welding. The chosen finish (chrome, stainless steel, or galvanized) not only enhances aesthetics but also protects the lock from weathering, dust, and corrosion. For contexts where security is a priority, opt for models that allow key extraction positions only in locked conditions.
