1. What is a mechanical lock?
A mechanical lock is a traditional type of lock that operates without electricity. You simply use a key, knob, or handle to lock and unlock your door. These locks are reliable, long-lasting, and ideal for both homes and offices.
2. What types of mechanical locks do you offer?
At Eunica Engineering, we supply a wide range of mechanical locks to suit different needs:
-

-
Lever Handle Locks – Simple to use, ideal for offices and interior doors.
-

-

3. Which lock is best for my main door?
For front or back doors, we recommend deadbolt locks or mortise locks, as they offer superior protection against forced entry.
4. Are mechanical locks better than smart locks?
It depends on your needs. Mechanical locks are simple, dependable, and don’t rely on electricity or apps. Smart locks offer convenience but require power and regular maintenance. If you prefer a low-maintenance, durable solution, mechanical locks are a great choice.
5. Can I install the locks myself?
Many of our locks are easy to install using basic tools. We provide installation guides to help. For more complex locks like mortise locks, we recommend hiring a professional locksmith for the best results.
6. Do your locks come with keys?
Yes! All our mechanical locks include at least two original keys. You can easily have more copies made at a hardware shop.
7. How do I maintain my locks?
Keep your locks clean and dry. Use proper lock lubricants every few months to keep them working smoothly. Avoid using water or household oils like cooking oil, as they can damage the mechanism.
8. What should I do if I lose my key or it breaks in the lock?
If your key breaks inside the lock, don’t force it—contact a professional locksmith for assistance. If you lose your key, we recommend rekeying or replacing the lock for your security.
9. Can I use the same key for all my doors?
Yes, we offer a keyed alike service, where one key can operate multiple locks. This is ideal for homes or offices with several doors.
10. Do you deliver across Kenya?
Yes! We deliver security products to all parts of Kenya, quickly and reliably through Wells Fargo.
11. What are your accepted payment methods?
We accept payments via Mpesa, Pesapal, Airtel Money, Bank Transfers, Credit Cards and Master Cards
