Cura e manutenzione

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your BRINKS TSA Approved Padlocks, follow these simple care guidelines:

• Pulizia: Pulisci il corpo e l'arco del lucchetto con un panno morbido e asciutto per rimuovere sporco e incrostazioni. Evita detergenti abrasivi.
• Lubrificazione: Periodically apply a small amount of graphite lubricant or a silicone-based spray to the keyhole and shackle mechanism to ensure smooth operation, especially after exposure to moisture or extreme temperatures.
• Magazzinaggio: Store the padlocks in a dry environment when not in use to prevent corrosion.
• Cura delle chiavi: Keep your keys in a safe and accessible place. Avoid bending or damaging the keys, as this can impair their function.

Risoluzione dei problemi

Lock is Stiff or Hard to Open/Close

• Apply a small amount of lubricant (e.g., graphite powder or silicone spray) into the keyhole and around the shackle base.
• Insert the key and work it in and out several times to distribute the lubricant.
• Ensure there is no debris obstructing the keyhole or shackle mechanism.

Key is Stuck or Difficult to Turn

• Do not force the key. This can break the key or damage the lock mechanism.
• Try gently wiggling the key while applying slight turning pressure.
• If the key is bent or damaged, it may need to be replaced.

Shackle Does Not Lock Securely

• Ensure the shackle is fully inserted into the lock body until you hear a click.
• Check for any foreign objects or debris inside the shackle holes that might prevent full closure.
• If the issue persists, the lock mechanism may be damaged.
