Adding a second, independent lock to a door, this Segal single rim deadlock is a surface-mounted auxiliary deadlock that bolts to the inside face of the door and throws a heavy steel bolt into a strike on the jamb, backing up the knob or latch with a deadlock that resists forcing. It is keyed from outside through the door and operated by a turn inside, so it locks behind you with a key and opens by hand for a quick exit, and the rim (surface) mounting makes it far simpler to add to most existing doors than a mortise lock. A heavy cast case in a bronze finish stands up to hard use at an entry. It is a proven, affordable way to harden a door against break-ins.
Key Features:
- Single Rim Deadlock -- A surface-mounted auxiliary deadlock that bolts to the inside of the door and throws a bolt into the jamb for a second, independent lock beyond the knob or latch.
- Heavy Steel Bolt -- Drives a thick bolt deep into the jamb strike to resist prying, forcing, and kick-ins far better than a spring latch.
- Keyed Out, Turn In -- A cylinder keys the lock from outside through the door; an interior turn locks and unlocks it by hand for a fast exit.
- Surface (Rim) Mount -- Installs on the face of the door rather than mortised into the edge, so it adds to most existing doors with basic tools.
- Rugged Bronze Case -- A heavy cast case in a bronze finish takes hard daily use and weather at an entry.
Where to Use:
- Door security -- Adding auxiliary or primary deadlock protection.
- Apartments & entries -- A keyed deadbolt where extra security is wanted.
- Lock replacement -- Replacing a worn or dated rim deadlock.
