There are several types of locks to consider when changing your exterior doors. The home locks we recommend always involve at least some sort of dead bolt mechanism because they are a very secure option. While all knowledgeable locksmiths will tell you that no lock is completely jimmy proof, drop bolts are considered difficult to pick because they can’t be pried through door jambs. The two types of locks that our experienced home locksmiths like to recommend are deadbolt locks and mortise deadlocks.

Deadbolt Home Locks

 Dead bolt locks for homes usually are cylindrical and installed in doors, just above knobs that lock. Some homeowners these days are opting to use high-tech locking systems. Most high-tech locks work with a vertical dead bolt or drop bolt which is used in conjunction with an electronic system. The security elements in these high-tech locks are fundamentally the same, but the functionality of these smart locks differ from standard deadbolts because instead of them unlocking with a standard metal house key, they can be opened with key cards, key pads and cell phone applications. Popular manufacturers of deadbolt locks include:

• Schlage
• Kwikset
• Gatehouse
• Weslock
• Master Lock

Mortise Deadlocks

For those homeowners who are looking for an even higher level of protection for their home, we recommend a lock that works with a deadlock locking mechanism. These locks can only be locked and unlocked with a key which can help prevent lockouts and break-ins. The main reason for choosing to install a mortise deadlock in your front door is because it is a sturdier option, which means it can keep your home better protected as well as withstand usage for a longer period of time. Recommended manufacturers of mortise locks include:

• Yale
• Prime-Line
• Baldwin
• Global
• Belwith
• Marks

High Tech Lock Change

If you or others in your household tend to lose your house keys often, you might want to consider changing the existing home lock that you have for a high-tech door lock. These locks don’t require the usage of any physical keys, and instead use electronic keypads, finger print recognition software, and or Bluetooth security to lock and unlock the door. High tech locks come in many different styles and each has its own unique features and levels of security. Whether you are looking to change a traditional lock or a high-tech electronic one, we have the tools and experience needed to offer you reliable, professional lock changing services that are sure to meet your personal home security needs.
