The rules and regulations
European standards
Lockers are tested on the basis of the European standards EN 14450 and EN 1143-1 and classified into security levels or resistance grades. This classification also determines the number and lock class of the high-security locks to be used.

Transom variants and drive diversity

Swing bolt
Turning the safe handle triggers a sequence of events in locks with a swing bolt. The handle sets the boltwork in motion, which pushes the lock bolt aside with its locking edge and thus enables the cabinet to be opened immediately.
Bolt drive: Indirect drive by moving the boltwork to the open or closed position
Opening / closing: Extending and retracting the bolt by turning the safe handle
Anchor bolt
Turning the safe handle activates the bolt mechanism on locks with an anchor bolt. The boltwork pushes the lock bolt aside, allowing the cabinet to be opened immediately.
Bolt drive: Indirect drive by moving the boltwork to the open or closed position
Opening / closing: Extending and retracting the bolt by turning the safe handle
Deadbolt
There are three different versions of WITTKOPP block bolts. These include the classic block bolt, the spring-loaded block bolt and the push-pull block bolt.
Classic block bar
The lock is opened or closed by turning the input unit. A spindle connects the lock to the input unit, which transmits the movement. The position of the input unit immediately indicates whether the lock is open or closed.
Bolt drive: Direct drive by manually turning the input unit
Opening / closing: Extending and retracting the bolt by turning the input unit
Spring-loaded block bolt
The spring-loaded block bolt is retracted by motor and extended again after an individually adjustable time. If the boltwork is still in the open position when the bolt is extended, the suspension ensures that the lock is not damaged. Thanks to this integrated overload protection, separate bolt position switches are not required.
Bolt drive: Motorized
Opening: Retracting the bolt after entering the code
Closing: Extension of the spring-loaded bolt after an individually adjustable time
Push-pull block bolt
The push-pull block bolt is retracted by motor and works with an external bolt position contact to control the extension process. With an impressive push and pull force of 30 N, this deadbolt offers high performance. The bolt stroke is infinitely adjustable and can be varied between 9 and 15 mm as required.
Bolt drive: Motorized
Opening: Retracting the bolt after entering the code
Close: Extend via external bolt position contact
Latchbolt
The latch lock is opened by motorized retraction of the latch bolt. When the safe door is closed, the spring-loaded latch engages in the strike plate and keeps the door securely locked.
Bolt drive: Motorized
Opening: Retracting the bolt after entering the code
Closing: Engaging the latch bolt in the striking plate
Classicism vs. progress
Safe lock or actuator
The actuators in the REMOTE series represent a paradigm shift in high-security locks. The focus is no longer on protection against unauthorized access to the secure storage unit, but on the security of data transmission. This change in the framework conditions leads to unprecedented flexibility.
The REMOTE series is ideal for all applications in which a simple locking element or a lock for external controls is required. All actuators are based on the components of certified WITTKOPP safe locks.
Safe lock
With classic safe locks, a locking secret, i.e. a keys or code, secures access to the safe. Only those who have the correct keys or code can open the safe.
The conventional electronic lock consists of a lock and an input unit. The input unit is used to enter the code. The evaluation of the code input and the bolt movement are controlled by the electronics in the lock .
Actuator
With simple actuators, on the other hand, the locking secrecy does not protect direct access to the safe, but rather the security of the data transmission. As the authorization to open the safe is already checked at another, higher-level location, external controls such as key switches, control contacts, RFID systems, biometric systems or alarm systems can now be used to secure the transmission path.
In an actuator, the part of the electronics used for code evaluation is replaced by an interface. This replacement of the components makes the actuator more flexible. Thanks to the new interface, the input unit can now be replaced by an RFID or biometric reader or an intruder alarm system, for example. Depending on the application, potential-free contacts or serial interfaces are used as the interface.
