The Best Deadbolts Recommended by Mr. Locksmith
For further information go to Mr. Locksmith.
My Favorite and what I consider the Best Deadbolts for Residential and Commerical Doors are as follows:
- Abloy High-Security Deadbolt Protec 2
- Schlage Primus High-Security Deadbolt
- Schlage Commercial Grade B660 Deadbolt with C123 or S123 Keyway
Abloy High-Security Protec 2 Deadbolt:
- Pick Resistant if not Pick Proof.
- No known Picking Bypass techniques that do not leave a sign of tampering or entry.
- Drill resistant. Hardened steel as well as offering thick anti-drill plates. The face of the deadbolt has the best Hardened steel to deter drilling of any deadbolt on the market today.
- Patented Key Control (Only Professional and Factory Approved LocksmithDealer have Keys for duplication and then only with Owner Approval)
Schlage Primus High-Security Deadbolt:
- UL Rated Pick Resistance
- Patented Key Control (Only Professional and Factory Approved Locksmiths have Keys for duplication and then only with Owner Approval)
- Drill Resistance
- One of the most durable and popular deadbolts installed on Hospitals, Schools, Commerical and Residential buildings.
- After the Abloy Protec 2, Terry Whin-Yates Favorite High-Security Deadbolt.
Schlage Commercial Grade B660 Deadbolt with C123 or S123 Keyway:
- Patented Key Control
- One of the most durable and popular deadbolts installed on Hospitals, Schools, Commerical and Residential buildings.
- Terry Whin-Yates Favorite Deadbolt for customers not wanting a High-Security Deadbolt or Key Control.
- A difficult lock for even an experienced locksmith to pick open.
Medeco Deadbolts deserve to be on the list but I still prefer the Top 3 Recommended for durability, availability of parts and I just plain like them. I have been installing these deadbolts since I was an apprentice.
The Deadbolts need help to withstand brute force attacks and kicking the door in. The following items are needed:
- Mag Plate or Door Reinforcer. Strengthens the door.
- 1*’ Strike installed on the door frame with 3″ screws screwed into the door frame and stud.
- Longer screws installed in the hinges.
- Bolt Buddy (Optional).
- Astral or Full-Length Plate (out swinging doors).
The following video shows a Schlage B660 deadbolt, Mag Plate and Door Strike installed.
