How strong is the LOQED lock motor?

Motor strength and door-mechanism requirements for LOQED Touch and LOQED Pure.

Applies to: LOQED Touch and LOQED Pure.

The LOQED motor is designed to turn a correctly installed Euro profile cylinder, including many multi-point locks.

Compatibility rule

If you can open and lock the door smoothly by turning the key only, without pulling or pushing the door, LOQED should be able to operate it as well.

What the motor cannot fix

  • The motor cannot compensate for a door that is under tension.

  • The motor cannot lift a handle for lift-to-lock doors; you must lift the handle manually before locking.

  • A rough cylinder, misaligned strike plate or weather-bent door can make any smart lock struggle.

If the lock sometimes stops before fully opening or closing, check the mechanical door movement first, then check battery/power status for your model.
