Layton Locks

A locksmith can provide 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 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 the inside by operating the lever unless it has been deadlocked from the outside with a simple turn of the key. 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 simple deadlock function. A simple turn of the key should deadlock both the inside lever and the bolt.This stops intruders from gaining access 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 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 installing a secure home alarm system. Most criminals would rather target a residence or business which is NOT protected by a burglar alarm. Plus, government statistics show that the majority of robberies done on secure properties are actually unsuccessful. This proves that residential alarm systems are a successful form of home security and a sucessful deterrent to most prospective burglars.

Key types a decent locksmith can service:

Master keys – A master key is a key used to open a lot of different locks. In houses, for example, master keys are almost always used to open all the doors in that particular residence, but the other room keys cannot function in this way.
Car Keys – automotive keys are used to open car doors, trunks and glove compartments in addition to being the ignition key for the automobile itself.
Skeleton keys – skeleton keys, or passkeys, are a simple make of key used to open drawers and cabinets. Skeleton keys offer very minimal security.
Key cards – a key card is usually a card loaded with digital signature on it. The key card is used to open electronic access control locks which are often found in hotels and commercial buildings.
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 move a bolt back and forth. Cylinder lock keys line up the lock pins with the key and the shear line of the cylinder lock that enables it to rotate,turn the key, and open the lock.
