WHICH ARE THE BEST DOOR LOCKS FOR HOME SECURITY?

• Door lock types today can be placed into three
  main categories conventional, nonconnected
  deadbolts and smart and retrofit smart locks.
  Below is some important information to help you
  decide which might be the best door lock for your
  home
• Conventional and electronic door locks
• Great for keeping your home secure without
  anything too fancy, these locks range from
  High-end and drillproof, to basic deadbolts and
  electronic models with keypads that enable you to
  use programmed PIN codes they are generally
  single-cylinder locks.

• Advantages affordable, often rekeyable,
  deadbolts are more secure than a simple key in
  lock model, while electronic locks allow you to
  lock and unlock your door without a key.
• Disadvantages they are not as convenient and
  high-tech as smart locks.
• Smart locks
• These offer remote and voice control, access
  logs, geofencing and other smart features.
  However, note that some features require a Wi-Fi
  adapter at additional cost.

• Advantages convenient, these smart locks can
  help give you peace of mind with the ability to
  control them remotely.
• Disadvantages often requiring extra hardware
  and costing more than conventional deadbolt
  locks, these are actually just as susceptible to
  forced entry and standard door locks.
• Retrofit smart locks
• Offering all of the features that a regular smart
  lock offers, these replace the interior side of
  your deadbolt, however, rather than fully
  replacing it, enabling you to keep your existing
  deadbolt and keys while benefitting from smart
  features such as remote control and
  auto-unlocking.

• Advantages you can keep the exterior of your
  existing deadbolt and keys.
• Disadvantages how strong your smart lock is,
  depends entirely upon the strength of your
  existing deadbolt. If its weak, then the
  features of your smart lock wont be much of a
  deterrent for burglars.
• When deciding which is the best door lock for
  your home, you will need to think carefully about
  your budget, whether you want the latest smart
  technology (which will cost more), and whether
  your existing door frame and lock is sturdy
  enough. You may also want to invest more in
  security if you live in a high-crime area, or if
  you are particularly worried about someone
  breaking into your property.

• The best way to help you make an informed
  decision as to which locks you choose for your
  home, or to know whether you need to upgrade any
  elements of your locking system, is to chat with
  a professional locksmith, who will have all the
  latest information and statistics when it comes
  to home security.
