Protect your precious assets with quality Lock installation

How essential is a proper lock installation?

If you’ve ever thought that to install new locks in your door is a simple process, then you will have to reconsider because, a door that is not secured the way it should be, can become a sticky, troublesome door that refuse to latch completely. And once your door isn’t properly working, then your security is no longer guaranteed and your properties are at risk of burglars and thieves.

Witness how to properly install lock hole as certified technicians from Chiko’s Locksmith will take you through the intricacies of lock installation services. We know the importance of keeping one’s family safe and protected.

Thus, in this article, we will seek to inform you on how important it is to get the lock installation process done the right way.

Best three ways how you can properly install your locks

The lock installation process starts in similar fashion like the one done in rekeying, in which the handle or knob is removed, but in this case; the spindle and rose will also be removed from the door as well. The bolts are also unscrewed and replaced, after which the holes are either adjusted or not, depending on the type of lock involved.

There are three main ways to get the locks installed. These are:

Inserting the New Latch:

The latch is the door’s part that slides into the door frame, which effectively secures the door when shut.  When our lock change service locksmith technician begins the installation process, we will always ensure that the recessed area on the homeowner’s door has smooth edges that will make the latch to fit snugly.

Install The Lockset:

The lockset is that part of the lock which is attached to the handle or doorknob. Beginning from the outer pieces, sliding the lockset close to where the latch is located. After this, connect both the inside and outside pieces of the lockset, place the screws where they belong and tighten them accordingly.

Test The Installed Lock:

It is very critical that the newly installed lock be tested to ensure it is working properly. The locksmith and yourself will try closing and opening the door for few time. Attempt to open the lock with the accompany key while keeping the door open. By so doing, you won’t be accidentally locked out if something wrong or misplaced.

What are the right lock choices you or your business can install?

Due to the fact that there are a lot of ways that allows doors to be bypassed, it is necessary that homeowners take serious consideration about the type of lock they choose to install on their doors.

Almost all door locks shares similar features. The extending bolt from the lock that strives to fit within the strike, which is located right by the door’s frame. The quality of bolt within a lock is a major determining factor in measuring the strength of that lock. But for exterior doors, locksmith and homeowners have just two main popular options: latch bolts or deadbolts!

Latch bolts are those bolts that are loaded with lots of springs as well as being bevelled. The bolt is kept constantly extended by the spring unless a relative strong force is applied in the guise of turning the handle of the door. Latch bolt doors easily retract once the door handle is engage, as result of the spring mechanism contracting.

Deadbolts on the other hand, are neither bevelled nor spring-loaded. To extend or retract a deadbolt, the homeowner will have to use a key or his thump to turn and manually complete this action.

Conclusion

Whatever the situation and type of lock you want installed, our mobile key service is always on the road 24/7, including at night to satisfy your needs. Whether you are lockout or have misplaced your keys, we are always by the phone awaiting your call. 

For all your lock installation needs, trust the closures and doors professionals at Chiko’s locksmith. They specialize in everything, including lock repair.
