Mortice Deadlock
Mortice deadlocks are great locks, the majority of insurance companies will require these as British Standard (BS3621) mortice locks on any wooden exit doors. This is because they are a very secure lock, mortice locks fit into the side of the door and will require a key on both sides of the door, this is to lock and unlock so they’re not fire regulation compliant. Mortice locks aren’t recommended for interior doors as they tend to be too thin.
Locking Knob Sets
