Volvo 240 Door Lock ensures that all the doors are closed without fail, and drivers can be assured that the door will remain closed until they wish to open it. Early Volvo models had a basic key cylinder which enclosed the exterior handle with steel rods that could be swung to prevent it from opening, and therefore not even a flat battery could open the lock. Subsequent models included a smaller electric actuator connected to a cabin switch, enabling the occupants to snap all the doors closed with a single fingertip and to avoid the need to stretch across the wide interior. Later years of production had an option of a remote fob, which emitted a radio pulse to unlock the driver's door initially, and then a subsequent press unlocked the other doors, but a quick double tap honked the horn to confirm. Since every sedan, coupe, and wagon of the 240 family has the same core latch, the parts change readily across 242, 244, and 245 trims, which makes parts sourcing simple. There is occasional lubrication that ensures the Door Lock continues clicking decades later, a practice many long-term owners attribute to the legendary longevity of the model. In addition to convenience, the mechanism enhances efficiency by tightening the cabin at high speed to reduce wind noise, and, for the climate control, reduce its work, and its forged claws prevent pry attacks and unexpected impact, adding to overall crash safety. Exactly cut tolerances allow the striker to contact the latch with a small amount of play, resulting in the car feeling solid each time the door closes and the red block engine rumbles to life. It is irrelevant whether it was in 1974 or in 1993 when the car rolled off the line, but the Volvo mechanism is compatible with all possible factory additions, which provides enthusiasts with a direct way to modern convenience without losing the sturdy mechanical core. Combining time-proven steel with optional electric and wireless assistance, the Volvo 240 Door Lock can be seen as an insignificant, but very important, protector of security and comfort in the modern car market.
