Installing a deadbolt lock provides enhanced security for your home. Deadbolts are harder to break than standard locks, making it more difficult for intruders to gain access. They are also durable and long-lasting.

Choosing the right deadbolt depends on your security needs. Single cylinder deadbolts are convenient for internal doors, while double cylinder deadbolts offer extra security for external doors. Keyless deadbolts are great for those who prefer modern, tech-savvy solutions.

While it's possible to install a deadbolt yourself, professional installation ensures that the lock is properly fitted and provides maximum security. Incorrect installation can compromise the effectiveness of the lock.

Regular maintenance is recommended to keep your deadbolt in good working condition. Lubricate the lock at least once a year and inspect it regularly for any signs of wear or damage.

If your deadbolt is malfunctioning, it's best to call a professional locksmith. Attempting to fix it yourself might worsen the issue. Our technicians at GI Locksmith can quickly diagnose and repair any problems.

A regular lock typically has a spring-loaded mechanism that can be forced open. A deadbolt, on the other hand, operates with a solid metal bolt that is much harder to force, providing superior security.

For optimal security, it's recommended to have deadbolt locks on all exterior doors. Interior doors, such as those leading to high-value areas, can also benefit from the added security of a deadbolt.
