What is a security bolt? A security bolt explained!

An armoured bolt, or more precisely: an armoured bolt lock (Panzerriegelschloss), is a lock that is installed as an extremely secure additional lock on a door. In doing so, the armoured bolt runs across the entire width of the respective door. Anyone who wants to rely on the highest possible burglary and property protection should therefore also consider the armoured bolt or armoured bolt lock.

The Panzerriegel is also called a cross bolt, and the Panzerriegelschloss is also called a cross-bolt lock.

Many experts in locking and security technology recommend installing a Panzerriegel when it comes to achieving the highest possible level of burglary protection.

Panzerriegelschlösser are available in a wide variety of designs and quality levels. Professional advice from a specialist retailer is therefore highly recommended.

Important notice: For legal reasons, Panzerriegel systems – at least in most cases – may not be installed on fire-rated doors (FH doors), emergency exit doors, cold room doors and similar doors, as no holes may be drilled into them. Additional locks such as cross-bolt locks are prohibited in these cases!

Would you like to have a Panzerriegel installed on your door?

If you have decided to have a Panzerriegel installed on your door so that you can accidentally feel safer at home, it is highly recommended to consult a qualified professional. This is because the installation of Panzerriegel systems depends heavily on the type of door that is to be secured and reinforced.

Is it a standard rebated door that should be fitted with a cross-bolt lock? Or a double-leaf door? Or do you need a particularly secure Panzerriegel for a flush door?

Depending on the door type, specific cross-bolt locks must be installed. Correct measurement by a real locksmith expert is also essential.
