Hello all, question about locks
Do what Mr. Meehan said. Go to a locksmith. If you want referrals, ask at
some small merchants where you shop regularly. Somebody has to know the name of someone they like. |

DEADBOLTS generally dont work as the original poster wanted. deadbots are much more secure and you cant accidently lock yourself out of your house. honestly deadbots are the far better choice |
