Most times home owners choose locks based on looks alone. In todays crime and hate ridden culture this is just not going to cut it. Take a look at this pretty handle. 
Looks pretty good from this angle. Let's take another look.
You can clearly see how the lock bolt is bent. This was caused by the door closing while the bolt was extended. This amount of damage was caused by very little force. Image if someone were to hit this door. That bolt will give very easily! It is a fact that many of the nice looking handles on the market are not built to be tough! It is the residents responsibility to add an addition deadbolt that will provide resistance to forced entry. Master Locksmith Company recommends heavy duty and high security deadbolts.
