The deadbolt Lock system provides maximum security:

  • It is called “Dead” because it cannot be moved to the open position except, by rotating the lock cylinder.
  • The technique of a deadbolt Lock makes a door more resistant and prevents the entry without the proper key.
  • May be either a single cylinder or a double cylinder.
  • A single cylinder deadlock operates by using a key from the outside and with a twist knob from the inside.
  • A double cylinder deadlock can be designed to utilize the key on both sides. It is widely used with glass doors because the structure of this particular lock prevents breaking the glass and opening the door from the inside.
  • A double cylinder deadbolt lock would prevent your door to lock from the inside.
