Pakistan’s climate, especially in cities like Karachi, Lahore, and Islamabad, can significantly affect the performance of power door locks:

Extreme heat: High temperatures can cause the rubber seals and plastics around the lock system to deteriorate, potentially affecting the lock’s movement and causing parts to warp o r fail.
Dust: Dust and dirt can get into the lock mechanisms, causing them to jam o r work erratically.
Moisture: High humidity o r rain can cause rust o r corrosion in the lock mechanism o r wiring, leading to failures o r sluggish performance.

Protection Tips: Regularly clean the door locks, ensure seals are intact, and consider applying lubrication to the lock components.
