PVD Finish

Physical vapour deposition (PVD) is fundamentally a vaporisation coating technique which is applied to a number of our door locks. It involves the transfer of material on an atomic level. It is an alternative process to electroplating.

PVD coatings are deposited for numerous reasons. Some of the main ones are:

• Improved hardness and wear resistance
• Reduced friction
• Improved oxidation resistance
