The term block lock is always associated with alarm systems. The block lock is used to activate or deactivate an alarm system. It is never installed instead of a normal door lock, but always in addition to one. Since it also has a bolt, it increases burglary protection as well.<\/p>\n

\n\"Schematic<\/p>\n

A block lock prevents an alarm system from being armed as long as any connected windows or doors remain unlocked.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

How a Block Lock Works<\/h2>\n

Block locks are electromechanical, and the mechanism inside them remains blocked until the associated sensors send the activation signal. The sensors are located on the door or window that is to be secured by the alarm system. In many cases, several doors and windows are connected to the block lock, for example all the windows and doors of a room.<\/p>\n

A block lock can only arm an alarm system when all monitored windows and doors are closed and no people are detected inside. Therefore, an alarm system can only be activated from outside via a block lock. This is important to prevent authorized persons from sabotaging the alarm system. The name \u201cblock lock\u201d comes from the fact that the arming of the alarm system is blocked until all windows and doors connected to the alarm system are closed.<\/p>\n
