MUST HAVE SECURITY HARDWARE FOR YOUR HOME

INTRODUCTION

• It's no wonder, then, that the opening of our
  homes to those that would do them harm leaves us
  feeling violated and angry. It's time to take
  action. And smart action starts with the first
  line of defense - security hardware on your doors
  and windows. Let's take a look at five must-have
  security hardware for your new home door hinges,
  mortise lock, LCN door closers, exit alarms, and
  glass break detectors.

DOOR HINGES
The door hinge is the most basic but still
necessary component in securing your entryway set
of doors or even just one door if you live in an
apartment building where all entries are secured
from inside the residence through individual keys
or key codes. Door hinges secure your door
against the most common and most common of
thieves, someone that just wants to move the door
aside to get inside your home. They are hollowed
out so that they can be easily drilled with the
security screws on the back of the door itself
that hold them in place. There is a set screw on
top of the hinge at an angle, this serves as a
stop against people trying to put it over
backward. These types of hinges are typically
made of aluminum or steel and come in a variety
of colors from silver, gold, and various other
metals including stainless steel as well.

MORTISE LOCKS
A mortise lock is the strongest type of lock that
you can use to secure your door. They are not as
common as a traditional deadbolt and require a
key to open it. Mortise locks are also more
difficult to remove than other types of locks but
they do not require keys, which is why they are
so good for security purposes. They also
typically look like a regular key lock when you
open them up but inside are multiple wheels and
cams that move against each other until the
correct combination is found to unlock it. The
biggest downfall of this type of lock is that it
requires a hole in the door that must be drilled
out. To install this type of lock, you need to
pay very close attention to the instructions and
follow them religiously or you will have problems
later.

EXIT ALARMS
DOOR CLOSERS
An exit alarm is exactly what it sounds like, an
alarm that goes off when the door of your home,
business, or apartment building is opened. These
alarms are made to be very sensitive and can
easily detect when a door is opened whether it's
from the inside or the outside. They give off a
loud siren noise that can't be shut off until
someone deactivates it. You want to buy these for
all your doors leading outside of your home and
even inside if you have kids or pets that are
likely to forget to close the door behind them.
LCN Door Closers are made for heavy-duty doors
such as those that lead into your garage or
basement because they can withstand the force of
these doors being slammed shut over and over
again. They are very user-friendly and simple to
install. LCN door closers come in various sizes
from light duty, medium duty up to heavy-duty,
and all have a variety of features according to
their size. You can purchase these closers in
single cylinders or two-way models.
