What brand of locks for a house are unpickable by burglars? Me and my cousin were locked out so I picked the?
Question:lock with a card very easily and got inside the house. So I was wondering what brand of locks are unpickable. The dead bolt wasnt locked it was the lock for the door knob.
Answers:
Doorknob locks are a joke and not made for anything but to make sure the door is closed.
Your deadbolt is your security. I am a Licensed NYC,NY locksmith and have never installed a key-in-knob lock-set without a U.L. rated 437 deadbolt lock.
medeco is usually what most banks use
I do not have the answer for this but I did see a show on this and you can call a lock smith and if they have a show case to show they have the line of locks that you can not break into guarantee but they do cost a little bit but they are worth it
The strike (the part on the doorjamb with a lip) for the doorknob is out of adjustment. The deadlatch feature of the latch isnt working and thats why a card slid the latch back enough to open the door. A qualified locksmith can fix this problem very quickly!
Depending on the age of your door hardware, your question may have been answered by a master locksmith at no charge! Good deal, huh?
But, if you have an older (very much older) lockset, there may not be a "deadlatch" feature.
Surely, anyone who would leave a property with a deadbolt without throwing the bolt needs to be schoolled on security, but, in shot, there is really no lock that a professional cannot "pick".
There is no residential or commercial lock that can't be gone through or gone around. As far as picking goes there are a few high security ones such as Schlage but even those can be gotten into by other means that I won't post but any Locksmith knows what I am talking about, and those locks will cost you more money. I'd just make sure to throw the deadbolt when you leave because bottom line is, if someone wants in, they will get in.
my mother always said locks are only to keep the honest people honest!!!! even a top quality lock is only
as good as door it goes in
schlage locks
also depends on how good your door is hung with little gap and good weather stripping
