Also back online in a desktop version is the app that finds MOIA’s lock replacement, designed for security experts, hardware stores, and trade professionals. Now you can not only use it conveniently on iOS and Android mobile devices, but also on your PC, turning it into an even more versatile and functional tool for your business.
The MOIA app, which many installers have already found extremely useful for quickly locating the correct replacement locks, is designed to simplify their daily work. The desktop version, accessible directly on a PC, provides the same functionality as the mobile version, but with the advantage of a larger screen and the convenience of instant access, perfect for those working at the counter.
But how do you install the MOIA web app on your computer? Here are instructions for various browsers!
Install the Find the Lock app on Google Chrome (Windows and Mac)
- Go to this link with the Google Chrome browser.
- Click on the three dots in the upper right corner.
- Select “Broadcast, save and share” and then “Install page as app.”
- Move the app icon to the desktop to always have your work tool at your fingertips.
Safari (macOS and iOS)
On Safari you can install the MOIA app as a web app by following these steps:
- Go to this link with Safari.
- Tap the share button (the square with the upward arrow).
- Select “Add to Home” (for iOS) or “Add to Dock” (for macOS).
This will create an icon on your device that will allow you to access the app directly as if it were a regular app.
Microsoft Edge (Windows and Mac)
Microsoft Edge also supports installation of the MOIA web app, with a procedure similar to Google Chrome:
- Go to the MOIA web app site with Edge.
- Click on the three dots in the upper right corner of the browser.
- Select “Apps” and then “Install this site as an app.”
Edge will create an icon on the desktop for quick access to MOIA’s Find the Lock app
Firefox
Currently Firefox does not fully support the installation of PWAs as Chrome, Edge or Safari do, but it is still possible to create a quick desktop shortcut:
- Go to the MOIA web app site with Firefox.
- Drag the URL from the address bar onto your desktop. This will create an icon that allows you to quickly access the site, although it will not be a true PWA.

Once installed, the lock-finding app allows you to find the perfect MOIA compatible lock for your customers in just a few clicks. The way it works is the same as the smartphone version: by answering a few simple questions, such as lock type, number of latches, or box shape, the app will guide you directly to the compatible lock. In just a few moments you will have access to the technical data and specifications you need, with detailed information such as the bolt pitch, available variants, technical drawings and reference codes. The app, already popular for its simplicity and intuitiveness, now offers even more possibilities with a desktop version. Whether you are an installer, technician, or hardware store, having MOIA’s Find the Lock app just a click away on your computer is a huge advantage for handling customer inquiries quickly and efficiently. Why not try this new way of using it now? Just like Giacomo, our trusted installer, who despite his unfamiliarity with technology found the app surprisingly useful, you too can appreciate its convenience. In addition to searching for locks, the web app offers access to MOIA’s full product catalog, company news and events, video tutorials, and, of course, the contact section to get direct support from our team. Whether on mobile or desktop, MOIA is your daily ally in your search for the best security solutions.
