Click Flooring Locking Systems: 2G vs 5G?

5 years ago

Hi all,
We're partway through a renovation and have gone with spc rigid core flooring. Long story short, we went with 2 different styles for bathroom (2G Stone SPC) and bedrooms (5G Oak SPC) but have realized they use different locking systems (2G Valinge Angle Lock vs 5G Valinge Drop Lock).
My contractor has stated concerns about the 2G locking system coming undone over time, but I wanted to get a sense if these concerns are valid or if 2G angle lock system has been fine for others? Thanks in advance.

    You should not have any issues with either locking systems as long as the edges are not damaged. They should not be tapping the edge too hard to the point of crushing and deforming it. The drop lock has it's own issue. Any missing spring will prevent the system from working.
