NEW ORLEANS HIGH SECURITY LOCKS
Whenever the economy is down, the crime rate goes up. The good news is that the majority of crime is opportunistic. Most thieves and burglars won't want to deal with anything that looks too difficult to crack. That's where high security locks come in. While no lock is absolutely guaranteed against unauthorized entry, high security locks offer serious protection against bumping, drilling, and forcing.
It can be hard to tell which locks are truly deserving of their high security label and which don't live up to their hype. Although different locks work differently, and each major maker of high security locks (including Medeco, Segal, ASSA, Mul-T, and Schlage Locks) uses different mechanisms, you'll want to look for at least some of these features:
- Special keys that only the manufacturer can replace or duplicate
- Thicker, sturdier hardware
- Hardened steel elements
- Patented lock mechanisms
