The outside operation is by key, but it can be disabled by the snib button on the inside as a simple deadlock function. A simple key turn should deadlock both the bolt and lever inside.This prevents 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.

If you really want to complete home security, you can increase your home protection by installing a burglar alarm. Most criminals would rather target a home or office which is NOT protected by a secure home alarm system. In addition, statistical data from the government shows that most burglaries done on secure residences are unsucessful. This proves that burglar alarms are an excellent form of home protection and a sucessful deterrent to most prospective burglars.

Key types a decent locksmith should be able to service:

Master keys – A master key is a key used to open many different locks. In houses, for instance, master keys are usually used to open all the doors in that particular residence, but each other room key cannot do that.
Vehicle Keys – vehicle keys are made to lock and unlock car doors, trunks and glove compartments in addition to being the ignition key of the automobile 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 Card – a key card is usually a card encoded with an electronic signature on it. The key card is used to open electronic access control locks which are regularly found in hotels and commercial offices.
House Keys – there are two types of house keys: house keys for lever locks and house keys for pin tumbler cylinder locks. The main difference is in the way they work. Lever lock keys lift flat levers in the lock allowing the levers to align and shift 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 which permits it to rotate,turn the key, and open the lock.
