Double Cylinder Deadlocks have always been a great first line defence against burglary. To improve user safety, deadlocks have been redesigned to incorporate a quick "safety release" feature. The safety release has been designed to allow residents to quickly vacate their home in an emergency such as fire, without the need for searching or fiddling for a key in a time critical situation. Also available are "Lever" Deadlocks which have a lever action to assist older people or those who have a physical disability to open their door easier. For more information on these locks, contact a reputable locksmith, or contact your local NHW Police Coordinator for advice.
