Question that a GOOD deadbolt lock can be EASILY defeated but assuming
that's true, I suspect that an internally locked lever doorset without
external cylinder will drill out even easier.

Since it cannot be locked when you leave, you're no safer than with the
deadbolt you have now. If you're only worried about somebody gaining
access when you're home and they will drill out the deadbolt, you should
just buy a shotgun and a box of buckshot.

Don't install a doorknob or lock corresponding to the deadbolt, and
you won't have that problem. Dont' install anything on the outside,
and dont' drill any holes into the door to reach the deadbolt
mechanism from the outside.

What do you mean a "lever"? I have no idea. What do you mean "push
and turn"? The deadbolts I know lock by someone twisting a knob on
the inside, that moves the bolt into position.


According to Consumer Reports, most deadbolt locks can easily be
defeated with a drill,

Aren't they talking about deadbolts with an outside keyhole, like I
have? You drill out the part where the key goes and use a
screwdriver to turn what's at the bottom of the hole. If you dont'
want the deadbolt to be unbolted from the outside, don't install the
keyhole either, any more than a doorbnob.

If there already is an outside keyhole or knob, install an additional
deadbolt. Maybe 2 feet off the floor this time, to balance the
current bolt or latch which is about 4 feet off the floor.


Make sure you get the longest deadbolt they sell. (of course it can't
be that long because it has to retract fully when you turn the knob.)
The first year I was here, I went out for dinner Sunday, 6 to 8, and
someone kicked my door in, breaking the deadbolt bolt partly through
the wood door and partly through the wood doorframe. I bought
U-shaped brass metal plates, with holes already in them for the locks,
that hid the damage and reinforced the door where that lock was and
where the doorknob was. And I got the longest deadbolt they had that
fit with the rest of the hardware. It wasnt that much longer, but no
one has tried this method of entry the last 30 years. I also added
some wood in the door jamb.

so I'm trying to find a second lock that can't be
accessed with a drill. Any suggestions are appreciated.

And if your slam lock (as opposed to dead bolt) is very old, it may
not be jimmy-proof. If it only has a simple triangular shaped bolt,
someone can slide a sheet of plastic in and get it to open. If there
is an extra piece that moves separately but is right next to the
trianular bolt, it's probably jimmy-proof**, unless the hole the whole
thing goes into is too big. If you dont' understand, ask more
questions.

**But not force-proof.

?? You want a lever door mechanism that locks from the inside but
CANNOT be unlocked from the outside?

Question that a GOOD deadbolt lock can be EASILY defeated but assuming
that's true, I suspect that an internally locked lever doorset without

?? And what do you mean by lever!

Since it cannot be locked when you leave, you're no safer than with the
deadbolt you have now.

Either it's only for when you're home, or you leave through another
door, after locking this one.

If you're only worried about somebody gaining
access when you're home and they will drill out the deadbolt, you should
just buy a shotgun and a box of buckshot.

For someone who knows locks, yes, can be done.

Lever handle lock, like that, has half inch throw
bolt. Kicks in pretty easy.

Since you're looking to lock the door while you're home, I'd
be thinking barrel bolt:

Yeah. They make much bigger versions of that too, with a rectangular
cross section** to the bolt, instead of the round one in this example.
And iirc a spring to hold it in place (although the round one will
stay in place if you put the handle down. )

The bars that go into a hole in the floor should really be in the
middle of the door, not the side with the other locks. The other
locks if any good are enough to keep that side closed. But many doors
need help against someone going right through the middle.

How do you come up with this stuff?

If the door is so weak that someone could go through the middle, then the
bar will just punch through the door when force is applied from the
opposite side. You'd have to construct a brace that spanned the width of
the door to support the bar so the holding force is transferred to the
stiles. Oh, but wait...they could still crash through the center of the
door above or below the brace, so you'd have to completely cover the
interior face of the door with a stronger material.

If a door is so weak that someone could crash through the middle of it, you
don't need a better lock, you need a better door.

In this case from seeing how people use the bar in real life.

I've called it to readers' attention. If any decide to get this kind
of lock, they can think about it then and decide what seems best.

I didn't feel like writing yesterday. Here's an answer more to the
point of your post.

If the door is so weak that someone could go through the middle, then the

Who says the door is weak? Does the presence of added door jamb
locks imply the door jambs were weak, or only that the first lock used
was weak?

bar will just punch through the door when force is applied from the
opposite side. You'd have to construct a brace that spanned the width of
the door to support the bar so the holding force is transferred to the
stiles.

They sell that too.

Oh, but wait...they could still crash through the center of the
door above or below the brace, so you'd have to completely cover the
interior face of the door with a stronger material.

You're too caught up in your "theory", which is not surprising since
you haven't been exposed to these issues in real life.

If a door is so weak that someone could crash through the middle of it, you
don't need a better lock, you need a better door.

If all the locks are at the jamb, a steel battering ram, which the
police and some burglars use, has leverage equal to half the width of
the door. When a floor bar lock is set in the middle of the door, the
door has to be hit off center and there is effectively only the
leverage of one quarter the width of the door. You have doubled to
the strength of the door for lots less money and less effort than
buying a door which is twice as strong, and probably hard to find or
inconveniently heavy.

If they're going to bother breaking the door, wouldn't a window be a
better choice? Better go for bars over the windows, too. If you're
going to live like a prisoner, might just as well have the look.

You have read the instructions? For a Fox police lock?

http://ep.yimg.com/ca/I/853111_2267_7721259
Here's a picture of an installed lock. You'll note that if you divide
the width into 4 parts, it's mounted in part 2 or 3, adjacent to the
midline of the door. The bar itself is about 1/3 of the way from one
edge to the other. Other people mount them in the middle of the
door.

This model is designed so that it can be locked from the outside, with
a key. While inside the bar is laid into the darker area, a slot.
From the outside, the key is turned and the bar is pushed to the right
(in the picture), where it can't get out.

but again, if he says so, why would I possibly doubt his
honesty?

You shouldn't, if you have any sense.



BTW, Medeco lock cylinders are much harder to pick, but afaik that is
their only advantage. They work well with a good lock behind
them.

Nowadays we used some advanced Door lock systems like Digital and touchscreen locks for doors. prefare good quality lock systems with cheap cost.

We have an exterior security door that has (1) a deadbolt and (2) a lever.
The lever has no locking mechanism. I'm trying to find a lever that locks
(push and turn, etc) from the inside, but cannot be opened from the outside
(unlike bedroom/bath locks that can be opened with a paper clip).

According to Consumer Reports, most deadbolt locks can easily be defeated
with a drill, so I'm trying to find a second lock that can't be accessed
with a drill. Any suggestions are appreciated.

If you're just looking for additional security while you're home, you could install a cane bolt which fits into a hole in the floor.

This reminds me of a Woody Allen routine. He said that he had six locks on his apartment door but only locked three of them. That way, anyone trying to pick the locks would always be locking as many as they were unlocking.
