Colorado Locks

A locksmith can provide and install a wide selection of locks, including:
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 operational features. The basic model is a simple latch that can be opened from the inside and let go with a key from outside. Top-of-the-line models will incorporate additional 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 controlling the lever unless it is deadlocked from the outside with a simple key turn. The latch can be held back by using the snib.
The outside operation is by key, but this can be disabled by using the snib button on the inside as a crude deadlock function. A reverse key turn should deadlock both the inside lever and the bolt.This deters intruders from gaining access via another means and releasing the lock with the lever, but also means that it is possible to lock someone indoors.
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.

If you want to complete home security, you can improve protection of your house by implementing an alarm system. The majority of criminals would rather target a home or commercial property that is NOT protected by a burglar alarm. Also, statistical data from the government shows that most attempted burglaries committed on protected properties are actually unsuccessful. This proves that alarm systems are an excellent form of security and a an excellent way to prevent home break ins.

Types of keys a locksmith should be able to service:

Master keys – A master key is a key used to open multiple locks. In houses, for example, the master key is usually used to open every door lock in the house, but the other room keys cannot do that.
Car Key – Car keys are used to lock and unlock car doors, the car trunk and the glove compartment in addition to serving as the ignition key for the automobile itself.
Skeleton Key – skeleton keys, or passkeys, are a simple kind of key that can open drawers and cabinets. Skeleton keys offer very poor security.
Key cards – a key card is usually a card encoded with an electronic signature on it. The key card is used to open electronic access locks which are commonly found in motels and commercial buildings.
House Keys – house keys come in two different types: house keys for lever locks and house keys for pin tumbler cylinder locks. The difference is in the way they function. Lever lock keys elevate flat levers in the lock making the levers to line up and move a bolt back and forth. Cylinder lock keys align the lock pins with the key and the shear line of the cylinder lock thus enabling it to rotate,turn the key, and open the lock.
