Lock Statistics and Opinion Please
Hi All,
I am developing a device for the elderly community to help their security and safety. In order to design the electronics I need to understand how to segment the product by type of lock used in the UK (and Europe if possible).
Could anybody tell me what the split between Eurocylinder, Oval and Mortice type lock would be in the UK?, Europe or the World?
I am being told that eurocylinder type locks dominate with over 75% doors using this type of lock in the UK. Does this sound right? What would be your guesses/statements on this. Would this be consistent in Europe, Asia, USA?
What is your opinion on smartlocks? Why would you still go for a non-smart lock, besides that fact it could be hacked?
Thank you all in advance.
