Springfield Locks

A locksmith can provide and install a wide variety 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 large range of security features. The basic model is a simple latch that can be opened at all times from the inside and let go with a key from outside. Top-of-the-range models will incorporate more functions like double-locking, dead-locking, resistance to hacksaw and drill attack and resistance to picking.
Tubular Deadbolt – It can be opened from the inside by controlling the lever unless it has been deadlocked from the outside with a reverse turn of the key. You can hold the latch 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 simple deadlock function. A reverse turn of the key should deadlock both the inside lever and the bolt.This stops unwanted intruders from getting in via another means and undoing the lock with the inside lever, but also makes it 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 really want to complete home security, you can increase your home protection by implementing a burglar alarm. The majority of criminals would rather target a home or commercial property which is not protected by a secure home alarm system. Plus, statistical data from the government shows that the majority of robberies committed on protected residences are unsucessful. This proves that secure home alarms are a successful form of security and a sucessful deterrent to most prospective burglars.

Car Keys – Car keys are made to lock and unlock car doors, boots (trunks) and glove compartments in addition to serving as the ignition key of the automobile itself.
Skeleton Key – skeleton keys, or passkeys, are a simple make of key that can open drawers and cabinets. Skeleton keys offer very little security.
Key Card – a key card is usually a card with digital signature on it. The key card is used to open electronic access locks which are often found in hotels 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 main difference is in the way they operate. Lever lock keys lift flat levers in the lock making the levers to align 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 thus enabling it to rotate,turn the key, and open the lock.
