At the end of the 20th century, the SHO-25 mortise lock, which received the second name "Baranovichi", quickly gained popularity. Mechanisms of Armenian or Belarusian production were installed on metal doors. At that time, this type of lock was characterized by reliable characteristics and was easy to use. However, to reduce the cost of the production process, companies producing devices began to equip the mechanism with a plastic tongue. This significantly reduced the burglary resistance of Baranovichi, which led to the fact that the owners seek to replace them with better analogues.

Manufacturers offer cylinder-type mortise locks and hinged devices. Among the brand's products, models 1423 and 1425 can be noted. The advantage of their use is that they have wide doorknobs with screeds. Due to this, the hole on the door left from the installation of the SHO 25 lock is completely closed.
2. Another alternative is the locks of the company Mettem. The Russian manufacturer produces high-quality door hardware, characterized by reliability and durability. Quick change the Baranovichi castle will protect housing from unauthorized entry of intruders.
3. Cisa and Evva mechanisms are distinguished by increased burglary resistance. Apartment owners are recommended to install a mortise armor plate. Brass handles can be made in various color solutions. Various cores of the European standard act as a larva. At the same time, experts recommend immediately paying attention to high-quality mechanisms that are distinguished by a high degree of security.

In Belarus, in the city of Baranovichi, the legendary mortise lock SHO-25, in the common people "button". The Belarusian-made disc lock of the SHO-25 model received its widespread distribution at the end of the 20th century, when metal doors were stamped like hot cakes in private garages and were equipped with only two models of locks: the upper one was Yerevan (Armenian production), the lower one was Baranovichi.

Push-button lock SHO-25 mortise type, the package includes a body, door handles, a semi-automatic cylinder and five keys. Some of the consumers call the SHO-25 lock automatic, someone semi-automatic, but in fact it is still semi-automatic, because when you close the door you need to press the button.

A distinctive feature of this castle on the negative side is a weak internal mechanism, which consists entirely of silumin. However, the old models of the Baranovichi sho-25 push-button lock previously served for ten years, which is explained by the OTK stamp, when each model was checked for performance and quality by the technical control department.

Currently, these checks are not carried out, and the locks are manufactured according to specifications ( specifications), which allows you to make your own changes to the design to reduce the cost of production.
The lock was not burglary-resistant anyway, and the last know-how in the SHO-25 push-button lock was the manufacture of a plastic tongue or latch.
Indeed, why put iron locks in metal doors, and it will do, the main thing is cheapness and savings on components, but how open the lock SHO-25 even an amateur knows.

Interestingly, the factory configuration does not include a drawing and installation instructions for the SHO-25 lock, only the dimensions of the case are 130x85x15 millimeters and the instruction manual is attached. So, gentlemen, consumers, check the purchased goods without leaving the cash register!

How and with what to replace the SHO-25 lock with another - we select an analogue

If you got tired of the old lock with its functions of slamming the door without a key, frequent breakdowns and there was a strong desire replace mortise lock Baranovichi sho-25, then as an alternative we recommend to pay attention to APECS.

Two models are suitable for replacement: APECS 1423 and APECS 1425. Wide door handles on ties allow you to completely cover the old holes, and a wide range of colors allows you to choose a lock for any door upholstery.

Advantages of replacing the Baranovichi lock SHO-25 with APECS:

• Full metal interior of the castle
• Cylinder DIN standard
• Can't lock the door without a key

Depending on the desire of the customer, our craftsmen can select and install reliable larvae (cylinders) to increase the degree of secrecy and burglary resistance of the APECS lock, since larvae are not provided in the basic configuration.

The most popular lock-button-machine SHO-25 !!!
Hundreds and hundreds of thousands of such have been installed in Russia. I must say that the locks of this Soviet-made model worked for a very long time - ten or more years.

In the event of a SHO-25 breakdown, today the owner has two main problems:

1. Replacement for a similar one. They are still produced and sold in stores. But the quality was just disgusting. Half of the parts of the mechanism are made of plastic, including the rubbing latch (yes, yes, today the heavily loaded latch assembly of the SHO-25 is made of soft plastic).

2. Low security properties of the castle. Even if they were of normal quality, it is no longer a secret to anyone that the sho-25 is opened by a swindler in seconds and does not require any large resources for this. Need only steel pipe and 20 seconds of time.

We are often brought sho-25 after it is out of order, and not uncommon after theft and hacking. Ask for a hint a good option replacing this lock on a metal door. But such an option is to redo the door to a minimum.

The most suitable

The most popular and easiest option for replacing the SHO-25 is with a lock + cylinder mechanism of the desired length.

The 1425 is nice because it comes with handles on a huge width bar that closes all the old holes. And at the same time, both the handles and the case itself of 1425 Apecs are made in very decent quality, everything is steel and covered with high-quality galvanization

If you choose just such a replacement option, you need to take into account the thickness of your today's door in order to buy a larva of the desired length and offset. In addition, you need to understand that the 1425 Apecs handles “eat” another 5 mm from the cylinder on each side. So measure seven times ... well, you understand.

The photo below is an example of how to measure, NOT your exact version!

It must be admitted that when replacing the SHO-25 with 1425 Apecs, we get at the exit not covered by an armor plate, which means a rather vulnerable lock. But firstly, here a person is free to choose a cylinder with protection from both breaking and drilling, and secondly, even in the absence of all this, the security properties will still be higher than what was previously with the SHO-25 lock.

Is there a serious adult option for a replacement?

Yes, and we'll talk about it below.

Below you can see the most successful option for replacing a Belarusian-made automatic lock. Successful - this means that the lock will have good security properties and quality.

All the salt in the hands

This is how the door with SHO-25 looks like:

Everyone's favorite button on the outside and the always sagging handle (do not look for analogies) of this lock complete the picture of a metal door of a bygone era, upholstered with a resin lath.
After the old lock is dismantled, the following holes remain in the door:

As a replacement, we offered the customer:

1. Case 4.402 by Mettem. This case has approximately the same dimensions as the former SHO-25. And the distance between the mechanism and the hole for the square of the handle is the same.
2. Handle Doganlar model KUMRU 36 01 23. They have a wide bar and a hole for installing a mortise armor plate. They are divided into left and right. The quality of the handles is very good. They will not break and will not peel off for a long time.
3. Mortise armor plate. Any matching color. It is better to focus on armor from responsible manufacturers, and not on the cheapest Chinese ones.
4. Cylinder of required dimensions and required protective properties. In this case, the customer has

Every day, many hundreds of Muscovites break the locks in the entrance metal doors. This is life and you can’t get away from it, and you can’t run away. Problems are not run away, they are solved. How do Muscovites solve the problem of repairing steel doors and replacing locks? They open the Internet and type in a search engine: "Replacing locks in metal doors!" And in front of the eyes of the townspeople who want to replace the castle in steel door, a sea of ​​​​information spills on the monitor screen, from those who suffer to change the locks in the front doors of Muscovites.

No matter what they are promised. Here you will get it done cheaply, and quickly, and with high quality. Some firms and craftsmen provide services almost for free! They have prices in Prices, almost the same as alms for porches for ....

They are so naive, Muscovites, they firmly believe in advertising and in the oil that is poured into their ears, firms and craftsmen working in the door and lock services market. The market is big. There are even more figures who want to master this eldorado! It used to be less. Previously, people from factories and factories went into this business, skilled and not very skilled - workers familiar firsthand with plumbing or with good hands and heads on their shoulders. Who did not want to work, went to bandits, prostitutes and artists. Now, in the lock and door business, people who are untrained by anyone, who want to “cut down” money in an easy way, are flooded with a stream. Much money. But, here you are not there, you have to work here. Hands.

It is even better when a person's hands work, and at the same time he thinks with his head. How to do it, what to do, how long to do it, how it will look then, how long will it work? And, most importantly, how will you be remembered later, by the customers who trusted you, with a kind word or a selective obscenity and curses.

The results of the work of such half-educated people are then corrected by normal masters, with hands growing from where they need to, and thinking about the future and their own reputation.

And here is one of the examples of how not to install the Belarusian castle SHO-25 Baranovichi. The history of the installation of this lock is typical for such cases. When the push-button lock SHO-25 Baranovichi, which stood at their door, broke down, they called, via the Internet, craftsmen to repair or replace it. Chosen by the customers, the performers promised them to do everything quickly, efficiently and cheaply. The results of their work are evident.

You can't look without tears! You don't do it on purpose. Even if you really want to hurt people, it won't work out that way. This is talent!!! You can't drink skill!

There was a new lock SHO-25, almost half a year has passed since its installation and there is no new lock. From the May holidays to November, too "chic" the life of the castle. You can repeat again - this is talent !!! When the SHO-25 lock broke in this apartment in May, only women remained in the household, and they ordered a craftsman to replace the lock on their front metal door. The owner left for the dacha, as always, for the entire summer season. The “specialist” ordered by the ladies changed the SHO-25 lock on their metal door and even explained how to use it.

He also warned women: "This lock is complex and must be used with care." How! But no matter how carefully the ladies did not use this lock, after a certain amount of time it began to crawl back and forth. After some time, the lock had to be slammed, as it became very difficult to simply pull the handle and close the door. And in order to open this lock and leave the house, women dragged the handles of the lock back and forth, catching the moment and good luck. Soon the castle completely grunted.

The body of the lock is already pretty rubbed near the mounting plate. So, in a barbaric way, the lock body crawled along the metal door frame, because it was not fixed from the end of the door, as it should be structurally.

And here you can see even better how the castle was raped, that its body was already rubbed.

The person who installed the SHO-25 Baranovichi push-button lock on this door even gave a three-year guarantee on his work. Just like the advertisement said. The castle jammed, not even half a year before the anniversary. It was surprising that it didn't break much sooner. Well, at least not in the closed state, he grunted, otherwise the customers would have paid more for opening the lock. Customers still have guarantees until ..., until 2019, you just can’t find a guarantor, the specialist has sunk into the water.

This time, the owner himself undertook the task of replacing the lock in his front steel door. I even came from the dacha on purpose to supervise the work on the next replacement of the SHO-25 lock. At the appointed time, our master arrived at the object, told the owner of the apartment about all the advantages and disadvantages of this castle. As a result, the customer chose for installation, in this door and in this place, an APECS mortise lock, as well as a German perforated ABUS cylinder with a turntable.

The main wish he had was a high-quality installation and subsequent trouble-free operation of the lock. We do not mind. We are always for! For quality work. No sooner said than done.

Everything shines, everything shines! Strictly matched to the fittings interior doors. Everything works without problems.

What beauty, in the face, what is from the rear, as much as the heart rejoices. How long to do skillfully. Everyone can slap a lock, not everyone will be able to put a lock with high quality and reliably, correctly. So that the lock works for a long time, and so that the owners of the apartment do not even notice its existence. It costs itself and stands the castle, every day silently and helpfully tilts its hands and no problems. Yes, it's just a fairy tale!

We are (born) working to make a fairy tale come true.

And the customer appreciated our work.

Many have met door lock like SHO-25, it is also called "Lock with a button", "Baran", "Baranovichi", "Automatic lock", "Belarusian lock", "Lock with a semicircular key". This lock attracts by the fact that it can be closed without taking out the keys, and leaving the apartment, just press the button and the lock will be closed. The SHO-25 lock was installed in metal entrance doors since the 90s, and now it is popular with manufacturers of economy class metal doors.

Very often, the "Baranka" lock is found on doors installed on the landing. This lock has been produced and is being produced to this day, but the quality of the lock produced in our time has deteriorated greatly. If earlier such locks stood for 10-15 years and worked like clockwork, then the locks produced now can last a week or two and then break. This is all due to the reduction in the cost of production and the installation of low-quality components in the lock. Some spare parts began to be produced from plastic, something is made from silumin. To all this, the degree of protection of the lock with the SHO-25 button is very weak. It takes crooks a few seconds to open such a lock with the help of improvised tools of a hammer, pipe or clamp.

Options for replacing the Baranovichi SHO 25 lock with Apecs, Abus or Kale

Customers call us with one request to help and solve the problem with the breakdown of such locks. Our masters already have extensive experience in replacing and modernizing doors with SHO-25 Baranovichi locks installed in them. One of the problems is that when installing a new modern lock, there would be no holes left from the fasteners of the old SHO 25 "Baranka" lock. There are several options for replacing such locks:

A more common replacement option is to install a new set of handles and the Apecs lock body and install the cylinder (larva) MSM, ABUS or KALE. This set of handles has a wide bar and covers all the holes from the old lock. It is also possible to choose the color and shape of the handles themselves (Gold, silver or bronze). In this kit, you can additionally embed an armor plate, and put a more secret core (larva).

This replacement option is more expensive, but also more burglar-resistant. The lock body Mettem 401.0.0 or 402.0.0 (Russia) is installed, Doganlar handles (brass, made in Turkey), a mortise armor plate is installed, and any cylinder can be put in such a lock, but for better protection of the lock, we recommend installing Cisa AP3, RS3 cylinders or Evva ICS, 3KS (increased burglary resistance).
