Lenexa 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 wide range of security features. The basic model is a simple latch that can be opened from the inside and unlatched with a key from 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 inside by controlling the lever unless it has been deadlocked from the 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 simple turn of the key should deadlock both the inside lever and the bolt.This deters unwanted intruders from getting in via another means and releasing the lock with the lever, 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.

If you want to complete home security, you can increase your home protection by implementing a secure home alarm system. The majority of criminals would rather target a residential property or office which is NOT protected by a secure home alarm system. In addition, statistical data from the government shows that most attempted break ins done on protected residences are actually unsuccessful. This proves that residential alarm systems are a great form of home protection and a sucessful deterrent to most prospective burglars.

Key types a locksmith can service:

Master keys – Master keys are a key used to open more than one set of locks. In homes, for instance, the master key is normally 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 used to open car doors, trunks and the glove compartment as well as being the ignition key for the car itself.
Skeleton Key – skeleton keys, or passkeys, are a simple type of key that can open drawers and cabinets. A skeleton key offers very poor security.
Key cards – a key card is usually a card encoded with an electronic signature on it. Key cards are used to open electronic access locks which are often found in hotels 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 these keys work. Lever lock keys raise flat levers in the lock allowing the levers to line up and move 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 thus enabling it to rotate,turn the key, and open the lock.
