Door locks for machine guarding

A Door Lock is an Interlock device that prevents two parts from being separated, consisting of, but not limited to, keeping an entry door into an enclosure closed. Alcatraz Interlocks provides these door locks with single or double keys and with springs or chains. These door locks are used for machine guarding applications.

Our Bolt / Door Locks have now been developed to use a single unified body allowing it to be assembled into the required application ranging from Single key Bolt Lock, Single key Door Lock, Double key Bolt Lock and Double key Door Lock with more applications upcoming.

Door locks applications

A Door Lock is operated with the help of an Interlock key which when inserted releases the Door Lock handle whilst trapping the Interlock Key. While the handle is removed, the application it is fitted to is free to be used: opening the door, moving the loading arm to the medium container, opening the hatch or opening the flange.

Only after moving the equipment back into its original position, and returning the Door Lock handle into the Interlock can the Interlock Key be removed, locking the handle in place. Door locks prevent accidents in applications where there are critical installations like:

  • Industrial mixers
  • Separators
  • Dryers
  • Granulators
  • Centrifuges
  • Electrostatic precipitators
