Amazing lock provides peace of mind

This lock mounts easily in minutes! Very strong lock, and awesome finishes available. The white matches up nicely with white trim.

Pros
  • Protect your loved ones with the ultimate door security
Cons
  • Adds extra weight to the door, causing added wear and tear

Well made and secure

Seems to be very well made. I purchased 3 inch screws to replace the short screws that came with it. I wish they came over the door more, but they still seem to be able to do the job. As a bonus they are doubling as child locks for my active 2 year old.

Pros
  • Hardware
Cons
  • The reinforcement lock is only effective when locked, which requires additional effort on the user's part

Extra safety - my new review

This is a perfect child safety lock or extra lock. We use this at our apartment complex door just as an extra security lock. Turns out our toddler try to get out the door also so that also prevents her from opening up the doors. Way better than those regular flimsy flip-locks. I ended up getting two extra ones and gave to my sister and mother-in-law

Pros
  • Protects your family and home from unwanted intruders
Cons
  • The lock may not be compatible with existing deadbolts

These work great - my new review

Easy to install and keep the door completely shut so the little ones cannot get out. But don't lock yourself out and try to come in through a door with this thing on it. You will not be getting in!

Pros
  • A little difficult to unlatch for my wife. With a little WD40 occasionally, it appears to be ok
Cons
  • Childproof locks can be challenging or cumbersome for adults

Dependable security, easy install

This took under 20 minutes to install, including shaving down the door frame to accommodate the lock. I put one on another door that had more space between the door and the frame, thus it didn’t need any adjustments, and that one took 3 minutes. This is a solid backup lock, which makes it almost impossible for someone even with keys to open the door when the lock is engaged. Great for use at night, and on all but one entry to your house when you are away (since you can only engage from inside…

Pros
  • Instills confidence in your home's security
Cons
  • Can create problems for wheelchairs or other mobility devices that have to cross the threshold

Good locking mechanism, bad screws

Lock mechanism is excellent, very high quality. However, the screws that come with it are garbage. What’s the point of having a high quality lock that’s poorly mounted with tiny aluminum screws? Do yourself a favor and buy some decent screws and don’t use the ones provided.

Pros
  • Easy installation process with screws provided
Cons
  • The lock is not pick-proof

Poor quality screws

The screws provided with the product are worthless. The 'wallowed out' before they could be screwed in all the way. I had to replace them with my own screws.

Pros
  • Stylish design that complements any home
Cons
  • Can cause problems with the door's magnetic lock

Strong, easy install

These locks are great. They are extremely strong and are hidden from view outside the door. Even if an intruder were to break glass they most likely wouldn't find this lock, and it would be difficult to unlock from outside. They come in a variety of colors to match trim. Very inexpensive for the piece of mind they provide.

Pros
  • Highly effective at deterring burglars
Cons
  • The lock may become loose over time and require constant tightening

Great Way To Keep Toddlers in the House!

My 3 yr old kept escaping at the most inconvenient times and so I purchased this to prevent it. Challenging to install for DIY beginners. It works wonders!

Pros
  • Perfect
Cons
  • Challenging to install for DIY beginners

Great option! for my opinion

I really like this and decided to get this product instead of an alarm system. It was very easy to install and is actually smaller than it seems in the pictures, so it is less of an eye sore. I have tried several time to open the door with this device in the locked position and it doesn't budge. If you are looking for some home security on a budget, this product it for you!

Pros
  • Provides secure protection against break-ins and intruders
Cons
  • Reinforcement locks can be an obstacle in emergency situations

Not oil rubbed bronze

This worked great it be aware that the color is exactly like the picture - bright coppery brown. It doesn’t match any of the oil rubbed bronze finishes in our house like I’d hoped.

Pros
  • It looks great unlike traditional door lock and reinforces security
Cons
  • Pricey compared to alternatives

Works for us good for me

No one has tried to kick in our door so I cant really say it 100% works. But I think it would. It was very easy to install and works perfect as far and the kids not being able to sneak outside

Pros
  • Ensure peace of mind knowing your door is reinforced
Cons
  • Potential for interference with the door closer mechanism

Toddler Safety best in my review

I have heard too many stories about kids getting out of the house at night while parents are sleeping. Being the paranoid mother that I am, as soon as our daughter could unlock the deadbolt we ordered these. They are too high for her to reach and just tricky enough for her not to be able to open the door by herself if she drags her stool to the door. They give me peace of mind and let me get a good night's rest.

Pros
  • Deadbolts
Cons
  • Can create gaps between the door and frame, compromising insulation

Study Lock - my new review

It appears it could be easily installed and it looks like it would make the door quite secure. At first I could not get it to open (directions are not to clear) and I was going to return it. Fortunately I finally figured it out so I will have the lock installed

Pros
  • Adds an element of safety to your home
Cons
  • The lock can be challenging to use for senior citizens or those with hand related impairments

Excellent - security like expensive hotels provide

I saw this kind of security bolt in a very expensive hotel. My front door has a deadbolt, but this adds the next level of security. It's easy to use and very quick and easy to install. I recommend it.

Pros
  • Easy to install, easy to use, inexpensive and it looks good
Cons
  • Not suitable for thin doors since it may cause the screw to pop out on the other side

If you want to keep someone out, this is the lock for you

Once installed, it keeps the door in a locked position. No matter how hard you push on the door it is not opening while locked. Very good buy

Pros
  • Peace of mind knowing your home is safe and secure
Cons
  • May not be suitable for doors located in high-traffic areas

Effective but challenging to operate by some

Used to back up electronic locks, this night lock use would prove challenging -- if not impossible -- to the very young. It might frustrate users in a panic.

Pros
  • So easy to install and it has made my life safer.
Cons
  • The door reinforcement lock is visible and can be an eyesore

Great add-on for door to keep toddlers from opening door

Needed something to keep a toddler from opening the door and running out. Lucked out, was able to use an existing screw on the door. I don't need it for security, just for a determined 3 year old.

Pros
  • Child safety 4 screw lock for added security
Cons
  • May not fit older doors with different thickness measurements

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great security at a great price

Strong, efficient, nice looking. I had some surround molding that needed trimming so the lock folds back flush. You don’t need to but then the lock stays somewhat open on an angle. Something to think about if you don’t want to chop away some molding.

Pros
  • Enhances privacy and security
Cons
  • Can trap fingers or cause injuries when closing doors

Hard to install in my review

Was not easy to install, you have to remove wood off of the door frame and that is not a easy task., But the product is awesome and looks great compared to others. My nephew would not stop going outside and can unlock our deadbolt and this work great for him.

Pros
  • Easy to operate
Cons
  • The reinforcement lock can rust over time
