BQT Solutions has introduced the latest version of its acclaimed Cobalt lock series, designed to address the two most important factors in door security: door misalignment and side-load release.
Designed for 90- and 180- degree swing doors in both commercial and residential situations, the Cobalt Series addresses two of the most overlooked issues in door locking. The ability to align a misaligned door; and the ability to release when requested, even with excessive side-load on the door.
The Cobalt locks are typically used in commercial and residential situations and are controlled by existing access control systems, allowing users to control access in and around a facility and have a full line of reporting features such as door position, bolt position and provide traffic reports when desired.

What are the benefits of the YD30s for end-users?
The Cobalt Series (YD30S) has been engineered to release when requested, even under significant side-load pressure, something a traditional eletromechanical lock isn't designed to do. Side-load pressure of up to 225 pounds can be applied to the door and the YD30S will still release when requested.
In many large access control systems, reporting and feedback is key to a lock's success. The Cobalt Single offers feedback to the control panel of the door position and bolt positions as a standard feature. With the ability to monitor the position of the door, and whether the bolt pin is extended or retracted, the YD30S provides vital information needed to ensure a site is safe and secure.
