Security is a door’s main purpose. If your entry or patio door needs to be repaired all the time, it might be wise to replace it, especially if it’s compromising your home’s security. In this article, your expert in replacement windows, Renewal by Andersen® of San Francisco, discusses the security features of our patio doors.
Cam Lock
With this lock, the door can be fastened from within.
Key Lock
Replacement windows experts attest that with this lock, the door can be closed from the inside, but requires a key to be opened from without. It permits the patio door to be a separate entrance into the house.
Kick Lock
It allows the door to be locked and unlocked with your foot, which keeps your hands free. The location of the lock makes it hard to alter. The intruders would have to smash through the glass before they could open this kind of lock.
Security Bar
The security bar is one of the safest ways to stop burglars or break-ins through your patio. The telescopic bar connects to the frame of the door when not in use. When set horizontally, it prevents your door from being opened. The bar closes the door against the opposite wall. Like a kick lock, trespassers would have to break the glass to enter your home.
