  • How much it really cost to re-key a normal lock?

    Your have a high quality lock on your front door. One day the key went missing. You’re afraid that you drop it somewhere at the garden and someone else might pick it up to enter your home.

    That’s when you will call us. We can hardware re-program your lock so that you will have a new set of key to open it, and the old key that you drop will no longer be able to open it.

    We charge RM18-47 for a rekey, depending on the key and lock type. But how much it actually cost us, if we do it for free and just charge the cost of the material?

    What is the material needed?

    We call it pinning kits. At Fine Lock Shop Kuching, we use only Lab brand universal pinning kits (made in USA). It’s accurate, universal brand, and we can rekey a lock to a very high accuracy and low deviation.

    The cost of the set is $97.95 [+ $27.50 Shipping] = $ 125.45 which is equivalent to RM 549. There will be 25% import tax and SST 10%, so the final cost will be RM755 per set.

    Each set contains 81 slots, composed of top pin and bottom pins. Number of pins varies in each slot, but it’s safe to assume each slot contains 10 pins. So total 810 pins are available to use.

    RM755 for 810 pin, so each pin cost RM 0.93.

    In order to rekey a lock, we must assume that we change all pins for a clean reprogramming. So for a 6 pin lock, we will use 6 pins. Cost RM5.60. If we decide to change the top pin as well (rarely needed, but in some case yes), it will cost total RM 11.20

    Your old key can’t be used anymore, so we need to construct new keys for you. 6-pin tumbler key, if you go to any hardware store to duplicate, it will cost around RM 5 – RM 6 eac. Lets take RM5. We give you with 3 new keys. 3 x 5. So it’ll become RM 15.

    RM15 for the new keys, and RM5.60 for the pin, will add up to RM 20.60

    That will be the cost.

  • Which Brand of Smart Digital Door Lock is Good?

    Which Brand of Smart Digital Door Lock is Good?

    We totally get it. You don’t want something that will give you trouble. A digital lock that wasted your time more than a mechanical lock is really torturing.

    So we heard you ask, which brand is good?

    Actually we have to correct you here. Even so-called good brand will have some crappy models that are the black sheep. But they have more good model than bad models. So we can give them a pass as good brand. And because we all almost every renowned brand, we have to be honest here, as it’s not possible that ALL are good.

    Today we wanna exposed this good brand: SCHLAGE.

    If you have a door knob at your home/ work place, you’ve touched a Schlage already, even though that knob is some random china’s banana brand. Schlage invented cylindrical lock. With a long history, and a famous brand among lock enthusiast, you’ve probably heard of it. Very famous in USA and Canada, more than Yale (Surprisingly Yale is more famous in Malaysia as it’s more affordable)

    This is a good brand for digital door lock as well. The digital lock, electronic lock is WATERPROOF! Even got a professional rating of IP54! Now beat that!

    But the main thing that convince us, is the lack of client’s complaint, and also we discovered good mechanism and thick metal used when we fully disassembled it for fun (sorry Schlage!).

  • What is the most durable lock?

    What is the most durable lock?

    Have you ever been in trouble with your door lock? Like get locked-out or locked-in, or can’t lock it due to damaged lock?

    No doubt you have. If you’re the type that always buy cheap locks, possibility is that you’ll have to face this problem each year.

    If you’re the one who look for quality stuff, your lock will stay with you for more than 10 years, some exceeds 30 years above up to 100 years (might become a historical monuments).

    What are the difference? No doubt, the material. There are so many options as to what material to be used to manufacture a door lock. It will affect the quality, shape, finishing and pricing. Here are a few famous one:

    1. Zinc Casting: This is the weakest among all. Zinc is not a strong metal. It will break apart if constantly push/ pulled daily (which you do with your lock handles)
    2. Zinc Alloy: Mixed usually with aluminium, it produces stronger metals compared to casted zinc alone. But they’re still not the strongest material for a door lock.
    3. Brass: Brass is strong, plus it has beautiful appearance of golden colour. Won’t rust and durable, this material has been traditionally used to product good quality locks for castles, historical buildings, etc. Many famous and premium lock company uses brass when they started, and remains with using brass as a tradition for producing door locks.
    4. Stainless Steel: Strongest & longest lasting material for door lock. Period. Highest tensile strength, high melting point, high strength and anti-rust. But, still this is not the most preferable material for lockset.

    Which do you think is the most preferable material for locks?
    It’s brass. It’s not the strongest material, but it is strong enough to last up to 100 years. It’s easy to machine, to be shaped into beautiful design. With long history and long processing experience, you can get many nice stunning aesthetic design for your door. Stainless steel, although extreme durability, but there are less manufacturer, slightly younger material and inexperienced production, and hence more boring design.

    Do you prefer stunning look? Or extreme durability?
