Why Deadbolts Matter

A knob lock alone provides minimal security — the bolt can be snapped with moderate force. A Grade 1 deadbolt with a 1-inch throw bolt and a heavy-gauge reinforced strike plate anchored to the wall stud is the standard for residential security in Ottawa.

What We Install

Grade 1 deadbolts — the residential security standard (Schlage B60N, Kwikset 980, Weiser). High-security — pick-resistant, bump-resistant cylinders (Medeco Maxum, Mul-T-Lock MT5+). Reinforced strike plates — 16-gauge steel with 3-inch screws reaching the stud. Door frame reinforcement kits — for doors that have been or could be kicked in. Double-cylinder deadbolts — for doors with glass panels.

Installation on All Door Types

We install deadbolts on wood, fiberglass, steel, and composite doors. For doors without existing holes, we drill the proper bore cleanly. Door alignment and strike plate adjustments are included in every installation.
