Choosing Door Hardware
Mechanical Security Door Hardware commonly includes cylindrical locks, mortise locks and exit/panic devices. Find out what to consider when choosing a mechanical locking solution for your application.
Electrified Locking Door Hardware is usually selected based on what happens when the power is interrupted. Locks that are powered to lock are called fail-safe (or fail-unlocked), whereas locks powered to unlock are called fail-secure (or fail-locked). This overview highlights the many choices available to you with respect to function and the appearance of electrical door hardware.
Child Safety Products
KM Thomas is proud to offer the Arte Viva line of child safety products to protect fingers, hands and bodies from the dangers presented by doors, windows, tables and floors. Arte Viva is a Dutch company whose goal is to make safe kindergartens and schools the norm around the world. They found that children often get their fingers or hands stuck in between the door and its frame causing serious injury and trauma. Another common accident where children hurt themselves is running into sharp corners or edges.
