Common Questions about Deadbolts
• What is a deadbolt?
A deadbolt is equipped with a bolt that can only be activated by a key or a thumb turn. The reason this particular lock offers great security is because it isn’t spring-activated. Therefore, it can’t be ‘jimmied’ open by use of a credit card or a knife blade.
• Is it illegal to have a double key deadbolt?
Yes, double key deadbolts are illegal in some places. This is due to fire-code restrictions. The consequence of having a double cylinder deadbolt is that people can be stuck in a room if they don’t have the keys to the double cylinder deadbolt. This can be dangerous in the case of an emergency, where people are unable to exit the room.
• Is replacing a deadbolt easy?
You need a variety of tools if you wish to install a deadbolt in a door (if this is a door that’s never had a deadbolt installed in it before). However, you only need a new deadbolt, lubricant, and screwdriver if you wish to replace a deadbolt. With that being said, if you wish to guarantee your security, we recommend you seek professional services when installing or replacing a lock.
• Why does a deadbolt sometimes stick?
Problems arise when there is an alignment problem. This is caused when dead isn’t aligned properly with the strike plates, screws, and cylinders. The most common cause is when the hole of the strike plate and the deadbolt are quite tight in the doorframe. This leads to the deadbolt sticking.
