Frequently Asked Questions

Please contact our lock experts directly if the answers below don't help you.

What's the MOQ for the electronic door lock?
There is no MOQ requirement for the electronic door lock — we're happy to offer a sample for your checking first.
Can the product be customized?
Yes. For orders above 20,000 pcs of hotel door locks, or 50,000 pcs of digital cabinet locks, we can meet custom requests.
How do you check all the goods on the production line?
We run spot inspections and finished-product inspections, checking goods as they move into each next stage of production.
How do you handle it when a client receives defective products?
Replacement. If items are defective, we typically issue a credit or replace them in the next shipment.
What if something goes wrong that's beyond our control?
Contact our Professional Service Sector — they will offer instant help.
What is the warranty for your products?
We offer a 2-year warranty. After that, spare parts and technical support remain available at a reasonable price. Standard electronic locks ship within three business days; fingerprint lock mass-production orders take about 25–30 days, and RFID cabinet locks take 7–10 days.
What are your payment terms?
Usually 30% T/T in advance with the balance paid before shipping. We also accept Western Union and PayPal for smaller amounts.
Do you have branches at home and abroad?
We operate a headquarters and design office in South Korea, plus sales offices in Australia, Greece, Russia, UAE, Vietnam, and India.
What are the unlocking methods for the fingerprint door lock?
Five ways in total: fingerprint, smart card, password, mechanical key, and optional mobile app control.
How many times can I open the door when the battery is low?
About 200 times before the batteries need replacing.
What if the fingerprint door lock runs out of power?
You can unlock it with the mechanical key, or connect a 9V battery to the emergency power poles.
Can the lock be kept unlocked?
Yes — passage mode keeps the lock open continuously.
What kind of card does the lock use?
The standard Mifare-1 card, available in standalone or software-managed types.
Can other card types (Temic T5557, HID, Felica, etc.) be used?
Yes, we can develop the lock for any particular card type, subject to a minimum order quantity.
Can the password locker lock be used for public settings?
Yes — set your own code to lock it, then enter the same code to open it.
Is a master code available for the digital locker lock?
Yes, a master code is provided to open the lock in an emergency.
What if a user forgets the password?
Use the master code to unlock it.
What happens when the power is exhausted?
The lock sounds eight consecutive beeps as a low-battery alarm. If the batteries die completely on a locker lock, use an external 9V charger to open it and swap the batteries.
Misoperation or minor problems
If a fault appears during installation or use, send a photo or video to your sales contact by email or instant chat. Our business staff will quickly confirm correct operation — please read the instruction manual carefully before installation. Support is completed within 24 hours, with priority given to special-event requirements.
Individual problems
Quality issues are escalated to our quality department using an 8D report. Individual problems receive free replacement accessories with a video guide on how to fit them, and the courier fee is covered by us. Complaints are resolved within 2 working days, with priority for special events.
Batch problems (10+ pcs)
We ask for a returned problem sample for internal analysis. QC, technical, production, and marketing teams meet to determine a maintenance plan and statistics on the issue, then define improvement measures and a completion date. Inspectors identify and document the problem, our PE engineer proposes a maintenance plan with preventive measures, and — accounting for customs clearance and freight realities — we provide replacement accessories and repair-method videos, free of charge with courier costs covered during the repair period. Complaints are resolved within 3 working days, with priority for special events.

Sample Policy

Sample & Courier Fees for Regular Products

A
Trading companies & intermediaries — buyer pays sample and courier fees

We're not discriminating against trading companies — our records show we've sent out more than 63% of samples with no follow-up order. Charging the sample and courier fee helps us control cost, and both are deducted from the order once it's placed.

B
Professional customers & Fortune 500 companies — we cover the sample, you cover courier

We can provide free samples valued up to $100. Because large-company payment approvals can be slow, we waive the sample fee — you cover courier costs and provide company information for our records. Special situations are negotiable.

C
Long-term cooperation customers — fully covered

When we release a new sample, we send it promptly to existing customers for reference and promotion — shipped alongside bulk goods or on its own, with both the sample and courier cost covered by us.

OEM / ODM Sample Process

A
Pre-production sample

Confirmed with the customer before production begins — it may be a sample made after confirmation, or a similar product used to confirm expected quality.

B
Confirmation sample

Mass production follows this sample exactly. We typically make two or more: one sent to the customer for approval, one kept on file — once confirmed, the bulk shipment is produced to match it.

C
Mass production sample

Sent to the customer after large-quantity production. We also retain samples on file for reference on repeat orders.

D
Hand-making sample

A confirmation sample built to customer requirements without a mold. Once approved, a formal mold is made and full production begins.

Because OEM/ODM samples are tailor-made, they require significant engineering time and resources — sample, courier, and mold costs are covered by the customer, and mold costs are gradually returned once the order reaches the negotiated quantity.

Replacement with the same type of intelligent electronic lock through the original seller.

×

An invalid warranty card or missing purchase order (unless the unit can otherwise be proven within the free warranty period).

×

Damage from human factors — use in an abnormal environment (strong magnetic or electric fields) or not following the product instructions.

×

Damage from the door or door fittings (aside from the lock itself) breaking, falling, or twisting.

×

The lock position has deviated and the opening mechanism is no longer working correctly.

Maintenance & Training for International Buyers

If an on-site maintenance visit is required in the buyer's country, we reserve the right to charge for travel, meals, and hotel costs. If the buyer visits our factory for training instead, we're glad to cover hotel and meals.

E-Maintenance

We offer online training and technical support through WhatsApp, WeChat, or Skype, with a reply guaranteed within 24 hours of your email. If your on-site engineers can't resolve a software issue from our instructions, our engineers can remotely operate the user software via TeamViewer. We also provide a hotel-lock maintenance FAQ so customers can check unusual lock behavior themselves.
