Miami Beach Locks

A locksmith can supply and install a wide selection 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 range of security features. The basic model is a simple latch that can be opened from the inside and released with a key from the outside. Top-of-the-range models will include 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 the 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 it can be disabled by using 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 intruders from gaining access via another means and undoing the lock with the lever, but also means that it is possible to lock someone inside.

Makes 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, the master key is usually used to open all the doors in that particular residence, but the other room keys are unable to function in this way.
Car Key – Car keys are used to lock and unlock car doors, trunks and the glove compartment as well as serving as the ignition key for the automobile itself.
Skeleton keys – skeleton keys, or passkeys, are a simple type of key that can open drawers and cabinets. Skeleton keys offer very poor security.
Key cards – a key card is usually a card with digital signature on it. It is used to open electronic access control locks which are often found in hotels and businesses.
House Keys – there are two types of house keys: house keys for lever locks and house keys for pin tumbler cylinder locks. The difference is in the way they operate. Lever lock keys lift flat levers in the lock which allows the levers to line up and shift a bolt back and forth. Cylinder lock keys line up 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.
