The HaspLock DIAMOND is a security device designed for robust protection, featuring a unique combination of mechanical and electronic elements. It is an innovative locking solution that integrates a traditional hasp with advanced locking mechanisms, making it suitable for a wide range of applications where enhanced security is paramount. The device is manufactured by Mul-T-Lock, a brand known for its high-security locking products, and is part of the ASSA ABLOY Group.
Function Description
The primary function of the HaspLock DIAMOND is to secure doors, gates, or other access points by physically preventing unauthorized opening. It operates as a hasp-and-staple locking system, but with an integrated cylinder and activator that provide an additional layer of security beyond conventional padlocks. The device is designed to be permanently welded onto the surface, offering a tamper-resistant installation.
The core of its security lies in its cylinder mechanism, which is a high-security pin tumbler system. This cylinder is housed within a robust body, making it resistant to picking, drilling, and other forms of manipulation. The activator, which is connected to the cylinder, controls the locking and unlocking action. When the correct key is inserted and turned, the activator engages or disengages the bolt, thereby securing or releasing the hasp.
A key feature is its ability to be re-keyed, allowing for changes in the locking combination without replacing the entire unit. This is particularly useful in situations where keys are lost or security protocols need to be updated. The device also incorporates a spring for older models, which assists in the smooth operation of the bolt.
Important Technical Specifications
The HaspLock DIAMOND is constructed from durable materials, including stainless steel, to ensure longevity and resistance to environmental factors. The welding process, which is a critical part of its installation, ensures a strong and permanent attachment to the protected surface.

Usage Features
The HaspLock DIAMOND offers several usage features that enhance its security and convenience:
- Permanent Installation: The device is designed for permanent welding, which eliminates the vulnerabilities associated with removable fasteners. This makes it highly resistant to forced removal.
- High-Security Cylinder: The integrated high-security cylinder provides advanced protection against picking, drilling, and other forms of manipulation, ensuring robust security.
- Re-keying Capability: The cylinder can be re-keyed, allowing for quick and easy changes to the locking combination without replacing the entire unit. This is a significant advantage for maintaining security over time or in cases of lost keys.
- Robust Construction: Made from durable materials like stainless steel, the HaspLock DIAMOND is built to withstand harsh environments and resist corrosion, ensuring long-term performance.
- Versatile Application: While primarily designed for doors and gates, its robust nature makes it suitable for securing various access points where high security is required.
- Smooth Operation: The design ensures smooth engagement and disengagement of the bolt, providing reliable operation with each use. The spring in older models further aids in this smooth action.
- Tamper Resistance: The permanent welding and robust construction contribute to its high resistance against tampering and forced entry attempts.
Maintenance Features
Maintenance of the HaspLock DIAMOND is primarily focused on ensuring its proper installation and the functionality of its internal mechanisms:
- Installation Verification: Regular checks of the welding points are crucial to ensure the device remains securely attached. Any signs of damage or weakening in the weld should be addressed immediately.
- Cylinder Maintenance: The cylinder, being the core of the locking mechanism, should be kept clean and free from debris. Periodic lubrication with a suitable lock lubricant (not oil-based) can ensure smooth operation and prevent wear.
- Re-keying Process: The re-keying feature is a key maintenance aspect. If keys are lost or security is compromised, the cylinder can be re-keyed by a qualified locksmith. This involves replacing the pins inside the cylinder to match a new key. The process typically involves:
- Removing the cylinder from the device.
- Disassembling the cylinder to access the pins.
- Replacing the existing pins with new ones that correspond to the new key.
- Reassembling and reinstalling the cylinder.
- Component Replacement: In case of damage to internal components such as the activator, bolt, or cylinder holder, individual parts can be replaced. This modular design extends the lifespan of the device, as the entire unit does not need to be replaced for a single faulty component.
- Cleaning: The exterior of the device should be kept clean to prevent the buildup of dirt and grime, which could potentially affect its operation or aesthetics.
- Professional Servicing: For complex issues or re-keying procedures, it is recommended to consult a professional locksmith or an authorized Mul-T-Lock service provider to ensure proper handling and maintenance of the high-security components.
The HaspLock DIAMOND is a testament to Mul-T-Lock's commitment to providing advanced security solutions, combining robust physical protection with sophisticated locking technology. Its design emphasizes durability, tamper resistance, and ease of maintenance, making it an ideal choice for demanding security applications.
