What Makes 4101341 Caradco multipoint lock Corrosion Resistant?
- The Amount of Chromium in the Alloy – 18% is the minimum target amount.
- Magnetism – Ashland’s Stainless “is” magnetic, however it is from an element that has corrosion resistant benefits along with the Chromium to prevent red rust.
- Some magnetic stainless steels (430 series) have less Chromium and use other elements that are NOT corrosion resistant, so they rust more quickly.
- Some non-magnetic stainless steels (200 series) have less Chromium and use other elements that are NOT corrosion resistant, so they rust more quickly.
- Magnetism is NOT an indicator of corrosion resistance.
What is a IWP-4101341-A multipoint locking system?
A multipoint locking system is a type of door hardware that locks at different points in the door — typically the top, middle and bottom. Instead of one deadbolt, it has three. The extra deadbolts bring additional security because it takes more force to break through a door that is locked at three different points.
Older door locks with similar functionality could only be secured from the inside and required you to turn a lock at each point. Modern multipoint door locks are easier to operate. The three-point locking system involves just one lock mechanism and dual-action deadbolts. So all three deadbolts respond to the same key turn — no need to stretch or bend down to lock different parts of the door.
Multipoint locking door hardware works the same on the inside as the outside. Turning the key secures or opens the door, no matter which side of it you’re on. You get additional security with the same amount of effort — or less if you’re upgrading from a door handle that required you to turn a key on the handle and deadbolt.
Another benefit, you don’t even have to lock up after you leave. You can set the lock so that it secures your door after it shuts. It’s one less thing to worry about when you’re heading out the door quickly.
