What Are High-Security Door Locks?

The notches on a door key correspond to pins inside the lock cylinder. When the key is inserted and turned, the pins move to the locked or unlocked position. A standard lock has a maximum of five pins versus up to seven pins in a security lock. More pins make it difficult to cut a functioning duplicate key.

Note: The only way to be sure that you are buying a genuine high-security lock is to have Locksmith Profy do the installation.

High Security Locks vs. Burglar's Tools

Burglars use a variety of tools. Lockpicks, bump keys that conform to various locks, drills, and even sledgehammers are part of a thief's toolbox. The number of pins in a high-security lock installed by Locksmith Profy makes them harder to pick. Bump keys don't work in a high-security lock. The hardened steel bolts in high-security locks resist drilling, hammer blows, and attempts to force the door open. Experienced break-in artists are deterred by the sight of a high-security lock.
