HC Security Network News Internet age is "experience is king" era, the rise of smart home, but also with its scenes of life experience brings wisdom inseparable. In the era of the Internet of Things, smart locks are an important place for the smart security industry and even the smart home industry. The real value lies in the vertical potential of the smart home, which will provide users with rich smart home experience scenes and interpretations. The essence of networking "connecting everything."

Domestic lock market electronic lock share less than 5%

In the past year, the electronic locks and WeChat locks of the IoT have already made their mark in the shared bicycle industry. In the civilian market, the stage of electronic locks is not limited to the field of travel. In the homes and commercial and residential places that are more closely related to us, electronic locks equipped with smart technology are used more widely. As a smart lock manufacturer in the domestic civil lock industry, Dijir, as early as the 1990s, saw the huge business opportunities hidden in this market.

After more than 20 years of development, domestic electronic lock manufacturers rely on the maturity of biometric fingerprint recognition technology, and gradually eroded the market space of traditional mechanical keys with its unique fingerprint basis, pushing the lock industry to quickly move from the era of hardware mechanical locks. Into the era of smart fingerprint locks. In Magnus' view, in the smart home field, in addition to convenience and security, the electronic locks are expected to control the entire house through the Internet and this lock.

Luo Zhijun, the vice president of the Guangdong Security Association and the president of the electronic lock branch company, Guangzhou Dijier Intelligent Manufacturing Co., Ltd. also believes that one of the characteristics of high technology is that the replacement is particularly fast. In order to meet the diversified needs of users, the electronic lock industry has evolved rapidly from the era of intelligent fingerprint locks to the era of intelligent network locks, which has become an inevitable trend in the development of this industry.

According to the experts of the Guangdong Security Association, the difference between the single smart lock and the network lock is whether or not the Internet technology is used to connect the fingerprint lock with the network or other smart home devices in the house, thereby realizing remote control and supervision.

Luo Zhijun said that although compared with mechanical locks, electronic locks currently only account for less than 5% of the domestic market share, however, along with environmental protection, energy conservation, intelligence and safety, etc., gradually become the focus of a new round of commercial housing competition, the real estate industry is upscale The market demand for digital electronic door locks is growing. "The application of smart technology in the home field will continue to deepen, and the electronic interlocking of electronic locks will become the trend of the times."

Industry calls for accelerated revision of industry standards

There is still some controversy in the industry as to whether or not to develop an interlock.

“The main reason is that everyone has the ability to ensure that the use of a lock becomes more and more convenient, while still ensuring its security.” Luo Zhijun admits that even like the first Leading companies in the industry will still be frequently asked by users about technical support issues in this regard.

According to statistics, at present, in the domestic civil lock market, the application of smart locks mainly appears in high-end hotels, apartments and villas, while the share of ordinary household users is less than 5%. This means that most of the domestic market is still controlled by traditional mechanical locks.

"In fact, our investigations around the world will find that the safety of traditional mechanical locks is far from being comparable to electronic locks," Magnus said. "Under the circumstances, mechanical keys still have problems with keeping them. I have to change the lock."

Security experts also pointed out that in some communities that still use the old-fashioned anti-theft locks, burglary has occurred. The fundamental reason is that mechanical anti-theft locks are always behind in the race against theft and unlocking technology. As a product with higher safety factor in the lock industry, electronic locks are superior to traditional mechanical locks in terms of technical protection, performance safety and operational intelligence.

Compared with countries with a large proportion of smart lock applications such as Japan, South Korea and Europe and the United States, China's smart lock market is still in its infancy. According to reports, in Japan and South Korea, smart locks account for more than 70% of the civilian lock market, the use rate of Korean apartment smart locks is more than 90%; in the European and American markets, the proportion of smart locks is about 50%.

"The domestic smart lock market actually has a lot of room for development." Luo Zhijun believes that, for this reason, the number of companies and capital entering the industry has increased over the years.

It is understood that China is the largest consumer of locks, and the demand for smart locks in the country has also grown geometrically every year.

It can be found that there are still many problems in the development of civil locks in China. Due to the chaotic standards, the products appearing on the market are also uneven. Some users are scared by inferior electronic locks to some extent.

In this regard, Luo Zhijun admits that Dijir has also actively participated in the preparation and discussion of relevant industry standards in recent years. The standards of "GA/T73-94 mechanical anti-theft lock" and "GA374-2001 electronic anti-theft lock" issued by the Ministry of Public Security in 1994 and 2001 respectively have clearly fallen behind the current anti-theft lock technology on the market, which needs to be revised to adapt to the industry. The need for development.

The industry believes that with the introduction of new standards, the domestic smart lock market is expected to usher in a new round of blowout.
