What kinda locks do you have on your doors? List brand name and type. Schlage? Kwikset? How many have Segal?
(For the record, I have Home Depot doorknobs and deadbolts (their Defiant Brand). I love em. Oh, yeah, to top them off for security, Medeco double cylinder commercial deadbolts, M3, front and rear, keyed alike. < big cheesy grin > :D

Front door; Yale mortise thumbset. Back door, Arrow M11 knobset with Arrow E61 Single sided deadbolt, both bright brass. All keyed alike.
Medeco doesn't add any strength to a wooden door jamb. Unless you have a key control problem and steel, concrete filled frames, Medeco is overkill.

To me, I don't have a preference as to brands.
If you are installing these on the entry doors and there are windows within reach, make sure that the deadbolts are keyed on both sides. They won't do any good if someone can break a small window and unlock the door.

maximum bathing room doors have privateness locks that are certainly defeated. in case you have bumped off the knobs and shaft, you need to be waiting to tug back the keeper from the strike with a extensive screwdriver. in case you won't be in a position to call a locksmith - or as otherwise pronounced, attempt to get in from the outdoors if achieveable. in case you already know and supply us the style and splendor of lock then extra particular training are achieveable.

Best bang for the buck.....Schlage, if you want to go extreme, and expensive Baldwin is the brand of choice for the 'upscale'
homes.

I have all U.S. Lock locks, they're rliable, last a long time and all that but they're not available in stores. the main reason i have them is because that's what i had in stock when all my stuff needed to be replaced
