When it comes to safeguarding your valuable assets, security is paramount. A durable padlock is often the first line of defence. However, traditional padlocks can sometimes be vulnerable to forced entry or extreme weather conditions. Enter the Glide Lock, a game changing solution that combines innovation, convenience, and unparalleled security for your access covers.

The Driving Force Behind the Locking Mechanism

‍

The development of the locking system was a direct result of extensive consultations with water utility operators who expressed a crucial need for a keyless locking solution that would offer effortless access for any padlock. Addressing the challenge posed by the traditional steel padlock shrouds, the Glide Lock emerged as an innovative response. Its design was specifically engineered to eliminate the struggle encountered by operations personnel when accessing padlocks on access covers.

Unlike the restrictive size and challenging access of previous steel shrouds, the Glide Lock ensures easy accessibility, effectively resolving the issue of fitting and removing padlocks without any hassle. Its user-friendly design streamlines the process, offering a solution where traditional methods had limitations, significantly improving operational efficiency and ease for utility workers.

Its bespoke housing, specifically designed and manufactured to accommodate utility locks allow the locking mechanism to remain securely embedded within the carriage at all times, providing an added layer of protection. This unique feature sets the Steelway Brickhouse padlock facility apart from its competitors, earning it a coveted patent for its innovative design.

Operating the locking mechanism is remarkably simple. With a key in hand, users can effortlessly insert it into the padlock and gently pull to release the locking mechanism. This intuitive process ensures quick and hassle-free access to your protected area, saving valuable time and effort.

To ensure optimal functionality, the locking mechanism boasts a hinged weatherproof housing with a lockable grub screw. This construction not only protects the lock from the elements but also adds an additional layer of security.

Built to Endure

To further bolster the durability of the padlock locking mechanism, the underside of the cover is expertly braced to prevent galvanic distortion. This structural reinforcement ensures that the system remains sturdy and intact even under heavy use or adverse weather conditions. Additionally on clean water reservoir covers, to meet the highest standards of quality, the underside is sealed with a Water Regulations Advisory Scheme (WRAS) compliant seal, providing protection against moisture and corrosion.

The padlock locking mechanism represents a revolutionary step in security solutions. With its bespoke housing, patent-protected design, and user-friendly operation, it offers unparalleled convenience and peace of mind. The hinged weatherproof housing, durable construction, and additional safety features make it ideal for both residential and commercial use. When it comes to access cover security solutions, trust in Steelway Brickhouse to provide the highest level of protection and reliability.
