Hi,

Looking for a more secure lock for the exterior doors to my house. Have
looked at Sargent, Medeco, Schlage Everest Primus, Mul-T-Lock as well as
some that seem not to be readily available in the US, like EVVA and
Abloy.

I'd just like to hear some opinions on the pros and cons of each of
these locks, as well as any alternatives I may have missed. Also, if I
wanted to do install something like an Abloy Protec deadbolt (for its
claimed resistance to bumping) or something similar, how would I obtain
these in the US?


Thanks,

STOP!!

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DO THIS YOURSELF!!! Installing locks requires the skills
of a trained Locksmith and attempting this procedure yourself will more
than likely result in a botched job

You need a person like this guy:

See all of those key blanks?

They may all look alike to an untrained layperson, but once you know the
inside secrets of the Locksmithing trade, you can unlock the potential in
each one of those blanks.

one mouse nest, 247 bees, 198 wasps, 1,014 earwigs, 1,833 ants, 10,899 leaf
hoppers and four pounds of bird droppings, more or less. Besides the above

Whats the area code for Missouri???

Then you too can wear a baseball cap indoors and have a stupid smile. And
tell people you're "certified" but no clue what certified means. Oh, forgot.
they do it right through the course, so you don't need to know.
