What is Cremone Bolt?
Cremone Bolt is a type of hardware that uses vertical bars mounted on the surface to secure a door or window. Cremone screw sets are similar to modern flushing screws, but are often much more decorative than other modern hardware varieties. They only provide doors along the top or lower part of the opening, while the flushing screws generally provide the upper and bottom of the door. Due to their relatively low level of security protection, Cremone Bolts often use more for aesthetics than to maintain a safe building.
The most common application for a set of screws is along the inside of the French door pair. French doors are often used on terraces and balconies, but are also located in the home when certain decoration styles are used. These screws can be used on both doors inside the pair or only on an inactive sheet. The Cremone screw set can also be installed horizontally through the sheath window to ensure the window.
Cremone screws include two interconnected bars that runOver the entire length of the door or the entire width of the window. At one end of the rods is a screw that projected into the floor plate or into the frame itself. The button or level sits at the point where the two stripes meet. When users turn the button, the bolt lifts from the floor plate. If the knob is turned again, the screw is inserted back into the floor to lock the door.
Cremone sets can only be operated using a knob or lever where the rods intersect. Some specialized varieties are equipped with a traditional lock cylinder, which can be locked on both sides of the hole and unlock the key, although this model is quite unusual. Buyers can choose from different finishes and patterns, with brass and stainless steel among the most popular finishes. Many Cremone screws are shaped into complicated patterns and patterns to make the door decorated with appearance, while others are more agreed and modern.
The primary benefit of Cremone Bolt hardware is its traditional, distinctive appearance. These lockY is also easy to operate and there is usually no key to watch. Because the surface is mounted on the door, it is simple to install and do not require extensive preparations for the door or frame.
At the same time, these locks provide relatively small security and should be combined with more efficient blocking systems to make the building truly safe. If Cremone Bolt does not have a cylinder, it can only be operated from the inside, which can be uncomfortable for some applications. These locks can also be difficult to maintain, as users can accidentally push out bars from leveling during everyday use.
