- Testing at our facility revealed that an entrance door can be kicked in by a 210 pound man running at the door and applying his foot to the door on impact. With the Sovilok System installed, we could resist a measured force far greater than that exerted by the “burglar”. Our technicians suspended a…

That is the beauty of The Sovilok System; the receptacle on the door knob side is hidden behind the door jamb striker plate. On the hinge side, there is only the protruding pin which remains in the swing area of the hinges. It is never in the way, and yet engages automatically when you close…

-The strength of the dead-bolt depends on the strength of what the dead-bolt pin is engaged into. On existing doors, the pin passes through a “striker plate” and enters into the thin door frame. The door frame simply breaks apart on impact, allowing the striker plate to travel with the door as it is kicked…
