Oklahoma Locks
A locksmith can supply and install a wide selection 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 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 more functions like double-locking, dead-locking, resistance to hacksaw and drill attack and resistance to picking.
Tubular Deadbolt – It can be opened from 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 the snib button on the inside as a easy deadlock function. A reverse key turn should deadlock both the bolt and lever inside.This deters intruders from gaining access via another means and releasing the lock with the inside lever, but also makes it possible to lock people indoors.
Cylinder Mortice Lock – Includes deadlocks, sashlocks, knobsets, nightlatches, sliding and metal door locks, plus panel locks etc.
Padlocks – Includes an extraordinary 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 improve protection of your house by implementing a burglar alarm. The majority of criminals would rather target a home or office which is NOT protected by a burglar alarm. Also, statistical data from the government shows that the majority of attempted break ins carried out on protected properties are actually unsuccessful. This proves that burglar alarms are a successful form of security and a an excellent way to prevent home break ins.

Types of keys a well-trained locksmith should service:
Master Key – A master key is a key used to open a lot of different locks. In houses, for instance, the master key is normally used to open every door lock in the house, but each other room key cannot do that.
Car Key – Car keys are used to lock and unlock car doors, boots (trunks) and glove compartments in addition to being the ignition key for the automobile itself.
Skeleton Key – skeleton keys, or passkeys, are a simple kind of key used to open drawers and cabinets. A skeleton key offers very poor security.
Key cards – a key card is usually a card loaded with an electronic signature on it. The key card is used to open access control locks which are commonly 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 main difference is in the way they function. Lever lock keys raise 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 thus enabling it to rotate,turn the key, and open the lock.
