Question What is the top feature of the 8K that makes this product better than that of the competition? |
|
Answer The 8K’s most unique feature is its Breakaway knob feature. No one else in the industry has this feature. The Breakaway feature provides an additional level of security and peace of mind to 8K users. The Breakaway feature is an anti-tampering deterrent that activates when the lock is tampered with. A shear pin feature has been built into the lock, located between the knob and spindle, and engages when abnormal tampering or force is applied to the 8K (i.e., forced entry using a wrench or similar tool). At the time of tampering, the shear pin activates and shears the internal knob mechanism, making it nearly impossible for intruder entry. The property owner can still gain access through the door/lock with a key. The owner simply needs to replace the shear pin to re-engage the knob. This is simple and inexpensive to replace.(Please refer to the below image) |
