Harrington Locks

A locksmith can supply and install a large 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 large selection of security features. The basic model is a simple latch that can be opened at all times from inside and unlatched with a key from the outside. Top-of-the-line models will incorporate additional functions such as 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 is deadlocked from outside with a simple key turn. You can hold the latch back by using the snib.
The outside operation is by key, but it can be disabled by the snib button on the inside as a crude deadlock function. A reverse turn of the key will deadlock both the inside lever and the bolt.This stops unwanted intruders from getting in via another means and undoing 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 revolutionary product selector for brass bodied padlocks, lever, cylinder, discus, laminated and combination padlocks, plus padbars, hasps and staples etc.

Door and Window – Includes metal/wooden window locks, door chains and bolts, multiple application locks, merchandisers etc.
Miscellaneous – includes bullet & shutter locks, parking posts, wheel clamps, gun cabinet locks, sae locks, vehicle locks, garage door handles etc.
Keyless Locks – Digital locks are increasingly popular for access control systems. This allows authorized users access to secure areas without the need to distribute keys. A range of varied types of locks and applications are available. Locksmiths can assist you with picking the most cost effective and secure locking systems to suit your requirements. Models available now include stainless steel digital locks which have a higher level of corrosion resistance.

If you want to complete home security, you can increase your home protection by implementing an alarm system. The majority of criminals would rather target a house or business that is NOT protected by a residential alarm system. Furthermore, government statistics show that most attempted burglaries done on protected homes are unsucessful. This proves that residential alarm systems are a successful form of home security and a an excellent way to prevent home break ins.

Makes of keys a locksmith should service:

Master Key – A master key is a key used to open many different locks. In houses, for instance, the master key is usually used to open all the doors in that particular residence, but the other room keys are unable to do that.
Car Keys – vehicle keys are made to lock and unlock car doors, boots (trunks) and glove compartments in addition to serving as the ignition key for the vehicle itself.
Skeleton keys – skeleton keys, or passkeys, are a simple type of key which is meant to open drawers and cabinets. Skeleton keys offer very little security.
Key cards – a key card is usually a card loaded with digital signature on it. Key cards are used to open access control locks which are often found in motels and 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 allowing the levers to line up and shift a bolt back and forth. Cylinder lock keys align the pins in the lock with the key and the shear line of the cylinder lock that enables it to rotate,turn the key, and open the lock.
Transponder Key
