For example: the door handle at home, the shower head for bathing, the faucet in the kitchen, the hinge of the wardrobe, the lever of the suitcase, the zipper on the ladies' bags, etc. may all be made of hardware.

Locks are the most easily overlooked hardware accessories in daily life. However, in our daily life, we have to deal with all kinds of locks, which play a vital role in security. After the lock is installed, most people neglect the management and basically do not do any maintenance on the lock. The editor summarizes some tips for the maintenance of locks for you.

1. Some zinc alloy and copper locks will "spot" after a long time of use. Don't think that this is rust, but it is actually oxidation. Just spray it with the surface wax to "remove the spot".

2. After the lock has been used for a long time, the key will not be smoothly inserted and pulled out. At this time, as long as a little graphite powder or pencil powder is applied, the key can be inserted and pulled out smoothly.

3. The rotating parts of the lock body should always be lubricated to keep the rotation smooth. At the same time, it is recommended to check whether the tightening screws are loose in half a year to ensure tightening.

4. The lock should not be exposed to rain for a long time, otherwise the small spring inside the lock will rust and become inflexible. The falling rain contains nitric acid and nitrate, which will also corrode the lock.

5. When the key is turned to open the door, do not directly pull the key to open the door without the lock core returning to its original position.

3. We usually use shower gel that remains on the chrome-plated surface for a long time, which will degrade the gloss of the surface of the faucet and directly affect the beauty of the bathroom hardware. Therefore, it is necessary to wipe the faucet and hardware with clean water and cotton cloth regularly to ensure the bright luster of the pendant, at least once a week.

4. The wax oil has strong decontamination ability. Applying it on a clean white cotton cloth to thoroughly clean the hardware pendant can prolong the service life of the product.

Note: Please remember that after each cleaning, you must immediately remove all detergents with clean water and dry with a special maintenance cloth for pendants, otherwise there may be unsightly water stains and dirt on the surface of the pendant.
