Sun City Locks

A locksmith can provide and install a wide variety of locks, such as:
Cylinder Rim Locks – Includes rim latches, cylinder drawback locks, cylinder nightlatches, APG locks, rim deadlocks, deadbolts and rollerbolts etc. Cylinder rim locks are available with a wide selection of security features. The basic model is a simple latch that can be opened from inside and released with a key from outside. Top-of-the-range models will incorporate more functions like double-locking, dead-locking, resistance to hacksaw and drill attack and resistance to picking.
Tubular Deadbolt – They can be opened from inside by operating the lever unless it has been deadlocked from outside with a simple turn of the key. You can hold the latch back by using the snib.
The outside operation is by key, but it can be disabled by using the snib button on the inside as a simple deadlock function. A simple turn of the key will deadlock both the inside lever and the bolt.This deters intruders from gaining access via another means and releasing the lock with the lever inside, but also means that it is possible to lock someone inside.
Cylinder Mortice Lock – Includes deadlocks, sashlocks, knobsets, nightlatches, sliding and metal door locks, plus panel locks etc.
Padlocks – Includes a product selector for brass bodied padlocks, lever, cylinder, discus, laminated and combination padlocks, plus padbars, hasps and staples etc.

Keyless Locks – Digital locks are extremely popular for access control systems. This gives authorized users access to secure areas without needing to issue keys. A wide range of different lock types and applications are available. Locksmiths can assist you with choosing the most affordable and secure lock to meet your requirements. Models available now include stainless steel digital locks which are extremely corrosion resistant.

If you want to complete home security, you can increase protection of your house by implementing an alarm system. Most criminals would rather target a residential property or commercial property that is not protected by a burglar alarm. Furthermore, statistical data from the government shows that the majority of robberies committed on protected properties are unsucessful. This proves that burglar alarms are an effective form of home security and a sucessful deterrent to most prospective burglars.

Types of keys a decent locksmith should be familiar with:

Master Key – Master keys are a key used to open multiple locks. In homes, for instance, master keys are usually used to open every door lock in the house, but the other room keys cannot function in this way.
Car Key – vehicle keys are made to open car doors, trunks and the glove compartment as well as serving as the ignition key of the vehicle itself.
Skeleton keys – skeleton keys, or passkeys, are a simple kind of key used to open drawers and cabinets. Skeleton keys offer very minimal security.
Key cards – a key card is usually a card encoded with digital signature on it. It is used to open electronic access locks which are commonly found in motels and commercial offices.
House Keys – house keys come in two different types: house keys for lever locks and house keys for pin tumbler cylinder locks. The main difference is in the way they operate. Lever lock keys lift flat levers in the lock which allows the levers to line up and move a bolt back and forth. Cylinder lock keys line up the pins in the lock with the key and the shear line of the cylinder lock that allows it to rotate,turn the key, and open the lock.
