Home Security Locks
You’ve likely picked the appearance of your front door to greet guests at your house and display your individual style. Now, you must ensure that it’s not a welcoming place for uninvited visitors.
The front door is the most visible entry point into your home. If it’s not secure and secured, it takes only just a few seconds for burglars to gain entry through the door to gain access to all of your items and even your family. In the past, the process of securing the front door was a matter of bulky locks, and heavy and unattractive front doors, which made houses appear like fortresses. But the latest options for security at home locks are designed to make front doors safe and attractive at the same time.
Think about getting a new door with a solid core
A lot of older homes have wooden doors that have started to split or rot and don’t have the toughness to stand up to a brutal punch or shove. Doors made of hollow core, that were originally intended for indoor use can be a major risk for exterior entrance, as are doors that have large panes of glass. If your examination of your door’s condition has revealed that it’s the right time to look into replacing look over the doors that are available.
There’s a broad range of styles available for home security locks which makes it simple to pick one that matches the style of your home.
Think about installing a door-chain and deadbolt
The majority of doors come with a push-button or twist-lock inside the handle. These locks can be useful as a backup, but they can be destroyed by a swift punch or kick from anyone trying to break in. They’re not equipped with enough mass to secure the door under pressure. In this case, it’s best to put in deadbolts.
If someone knocks on your door or rings the bell, the initial reaction is to unlock the door and see who’s there after a quick glance through the peephole. Once the door is open, an intruder could easily walk through and gain entry into the house. There are a variety of tools to stop this from happening; the most simple to install is the door chain. Utilizing long screws to fix the base of the chain to the doorframe and attach the chains catch on the door frame, you are able to safely open the door just a few inches to speak to someone who is in the area in conversation, without allowing them free entrance to the home.
Renters might find that the locks on their doors aren’t enough. If this applies to you, speak to your landlord about installing deadbolts. A safe door will reduce the landlord’s liability and provides security for the rental property or apartment. The addition of a door chain could be beneficial for renters, as the tenant, the landlord, as well as other employees, could possess keys to the apartment to use in access in an emergency.
