1 What are your most frequently used points of entry?
Often, the doors we use most—like a side door or garage entry door—are the least secure. These entry points deserve Grade 1 deadbolts for top-grade security. Make sure you look for an ANSI or BHMA rating on the box or product detail page of any deadbolt you purchase for an entry point. The Schlage SenseTM Smart deadbolt and Schlage ConnectTM Touchscreen deadbolt both meet the highest industry rating for security and durability, and are excellent choices for easy electronic access that works with the latest technologies. Schlage mechanical deadbolts have also earned a Grade 1 rating.
2 Who’s accessing your entry doors?
Do your children come and go with their own set of keys? Do other family members, babysitters or dog walkers need access to your home? If so, an electronic door lock is a great option for added convenience and reduced risks. Both of our Grade 1 electronic deadbolts, Schlage SenseTM and Schlage ConnectTM, hold up to 30 access codes which can be easily added and deleted. Sharing access is simple, and your guests don’t need to download an app or have a compatible fob or phone.
3 What does your personal schedule look like?
Families who travel often or have hectic schedules typically prefer the ease of remote security to maintain control, even while they’re away. Consider door hardware that connects with your smartphone, and/or integrates with your home security or monitoring system. If you’re an iPhone® user, you are probably best suited for the Bluetooth®-enabled Schlage SenseTM Smart deadbolt, which works with Apple HomeKitTM technology to allow you to talk to unlock your door using Siri® voice control. If you prefer Android, or you have a Z-Wave®-enabled home automation system, you may prefer Schlage ConnectTM, which combines simple keyless access with remote capability when paired with a compatible system.
Mechanical deadbolts
Mechanical deadbolts are a classic security solution for exterior doors and high-traffic zones with high-security needs. Schlage deadbolts come with the largest adjustable bolt available and an ANSI Grade 1 rating—the highest residential security rating on the market. Our one-piece exterior protects against prying with sharp objects, and anti-drill pins and plates help prevent intruders from drilling out the lock. Guaranteed to fit on existing, standard pre-drilled doors, Schlage’s mechanical deadbolts are a safe bet to replace an existing deadbolt. And with a 3-piece assembly, they are incredibly simple and quick to install.
Electronic security
With no keys to hide, lose or forget, electronic locks are ideal for on-the-go families with no time to waste fumbling for keys. They also add an extra layer of security, making it unnecessary to hide or loan out keys that can be lost or stolen. Connected locks like the Schlage ConnectTM Touchscreen deadbolt enable you to lock and unlock doors remotely, plus you can add, change or delete user codes in seconds. Schlage’s new Bluetooth®-enabled lock, the Schlage SenseTM Smart deadbolt, lets you use your iPhone®, iPad® or iPod touch® as your key, programmed through an easy-to-use app. For interior locked doors like wine cellars or home offices, Schlage TouchTM offers simple, completely keyless entry with a cylinder-free design, so there’s nothing to pick or bump.
