One of the questions we get asked by our customers is ‘Why do I need to lubricate my locks?’. While there are many lubricants on the market, not all of them work well with locks. We will cover three different types of lubricants; WD-40, Lock Saver Synthetic Lubricant, and Graphite Lock Lubricant.

First, Why do I need to lubricate my locks? If you’ve ever noticed your key sticking in your lock or having a hard time turning when the key is in the lock, this could be a sign that you need lubrication. If your door hinges are squeaking and making a lot of noise, this could be another sign you need lubrication. Metal that rubs against metal can get worn down and would be a great candidate for using lubrication. Another thing to consider is the temperature that the lock is exposed to.

Watch us put these lubricants to the test!
