ABSTRACT:
A lock for doors, for example doors of homes, offices, hotel rooms or similar, as well as doors of motor vehicles, includes a lock opening control assembly having a control device located at a distance from the lock and a mechanical transmission connecting the control device to the lock. A shape memory actuator is arranged in between the mechanical transmission, so that the lock can be opened both by operating the shape memory actuator, and by operating the control device, in which case the shape memory actuator works simply as a mechanical transmission element.
