3 Benefits of a MEDECO Tubular Deadbolt

Frog Lock Locksmith recently did a job for a customer who requested adding a residential-tubularMEDECO tubular deadbolt in his new apartment. This type of lock is chosen for its durability and strength to guard your home against unauthorized access.

What are tubular deadbolts?

It’s a type deadbolt, which isn’t spring-loaded or beveled.

In that case, it must be 100% retracted for your door to open.  With proper tubular deadbolt installation, it can also extend farther than its strike plate versus a dead latch. This means extending farther into your door frame. This system makes it harder for thieves to force open your door.

Let’s discuss more about MEDECO deadbolt benefits.
