Sunnect AP501 Digital Deadbolt - Its
Bulletproof!
The Sunnect AP501 Advanced Protection digital
deadbolt lock is designed to provide the highest level of security for your
home. Although the first impression you would have when you see the AP501 is its
beautiful style, as you study the details of its structure, material, and
engineering design, you will conclude that the AP501 is one tough security
device.
Designed by experienced engineers of digital
door locks used in a dozen countries, AP501 is made with top-quality materials
by an ISO 9001 (Quality Management)-certified manufacturer.
- Protects against lock-picking or vandalism
(sand, gum, glue, etc.) by eliminating the conventional keyhole.
- Designed to withstand kicking, sawing,
hammering, and prying.
- Lost or stolen Tag Keys, which cannot be
duplicated, can easily be deleted from the lock, immediately rendering the
missing keys useless.
- Convenient keyless entry using a passcode
that can be 3 to 20 digits.
- Auto lock feature that automatically locks
your door when it is closed. It can be turned off during times of high traffic
through the door.
- Matches the beauty of your home with 3 most
popular finishes.
- Guaranteed to fit all standard American
doors so that you only need a Phillips screwdriver to install the lock.
Features:

Here are some of the features that make the
AP501 such a robust door lock.
- The AP501 is constructed mostly of metal, in
both interior and exterior units. Even the keypad cover, battery compartment
cover and the Open/Close button are made of metal. No wonder it weighs 6
pounds, 2 to 4 times the weight of most other deadbolt locks!
- The three main components of the exterior
unit are designed to withstand hammering. The Tag Key sensor, temporary power
terminal, and the keypad are supported by metal or hard-rubber parts so that
any impact on them is born by a 2.5-mm thick metal mounting plate as well as
the door surface, thus protecting the circuitry in the exterior unit. Smashing
any of these components will not automatically yield access to the intruder.
- The exterior mounting plate blocks access to
the deadbolt latch even if the exterior unit is broken off thus preventing the
intruder from unlocking the lock. Most conventional deadbolt locks would
immediately expose the deadbolt latch if the exterior unit is broken off,
allowing the intruder to manually retract the deadbolt latch and gain access.
- The 1-inch throwbolt is fortified with a
5-mm thick carbon rod that resists sawing.
- The opening between the exterior unit and
the interior unit (through which the connection cable passes) is small and
covered so that hot or cold air from the outside is not allowed to enter the
interior unit thus minimizing condensation.
- Although water-proof, any moisture that
still enters the exterior unit or from condensation is allowed to flow down
through the weep holes. The weep holes are partially blocked by the mounting
plate to prevent abuse.
- On the interior unit, the battery
compartment cover is fastened with a screw so that the batteries do not
accidentally fall out if the door is slammed shut. It also has rubber pads to
secure the batteries in place.
- The manual override button directly operates
the deadbolt latch. It has no intervening parts other than a
directly-connected rotary bar made of metal, so that just about under all
circumstances you will be able to open the door from the inside.
- The vital parts of the lock such as the CPU,
PCB, batteries, motor, deadbolt latch drive mechanism, etc., are located in
the interior unit on the secure side of the door and are further protected by
a heavy-duty interior mounting plate that disallows any access to the vital
parts.
- The AP501 has a bypass circuitry that
protects the PCB in case of a high-voltage attack so that the lock remains
locked.
Quality:
The very first point about the quality of the
AP501 is that the engineers who designed this door lock and the manufacturing
facilities where we make the AP501 have been designing and manufacturing
top-notch digital door locks since 1999. Millions of our digital door locks have
been in use throughout the world including South Korea (where the locks are
manufactured), Japan, England, U.S.A., and even in Kazakhstan. What makes the
AP501 special is that it is the culmination of all of the knowledge and
experience gained from making digital door locks for almost a decade and that it
is made specifically for the American residential doors.
To ensure that each unit of the AP501 digital
door lock is made to the highest standards of quality, we start with the
materials and components used in the lock. All incoming parts are sampled
frequently and some critical parts such as the connector cables are 100% tested
before they are entered into the manufacturing process. The suppliers of parts
and materials must adhere to strict standards of quality and their performances
are measured against an ever-improving benchmark.
Once inspected, the parts are stored in a
climate-controlled storage room. The PCBs are manufactured by state-of-the-art
lead-free soldering machines that solder computer chips onto the board. As each
unit is assembled, it is tested at each step of the assembly line making sure
that a defective unit, if any, is detected immediately.
