What is a crossbar lock? A crossbar lock explained in simple terms!

A crossbar lock, or crossbolt lock, is a lock that, as the name suggests, runs across the entire width of the door being secured. As an additional lock, a crossbar lock provides a high level of protection against burglary and forced entry. For this reason, the crossbar is also referred to as a security bar and the crossbar lock as a security bar lock.

Numerous locksmith professionals and experts in the field of door and window security recommend the professional installation of a crossbar on important entrance doors that require a particularly high level of protection. Anyone who wants to protect their property or real estate as well as possible should definitely consider the topic of “crossbar locks”.

Since crossbar locks are available in a wide variety of versions, it is advisable to seek detailed professional advice from real experts about the different available options.

Important note: The law does not allow the installation of crossbar locks on all doors. For example, no additional locks such as crossbar locks may be used on various fire-rated doors (fire-resistant doors) or exit doors (emergency exits). The reason is that these doors must not be structurally modified. Drilling holes is generally prohibited for fire-rated doors and emergency exit doors. However, exceptions may apply in special cases!
