What We Offer

High Security Lock Options for Every Application

Not every high security lock is the same. The right choice depends on the level of key control you need, the type of door, and whether the lock needs to work within a larger system.

  • Restricted keyway deadbolts - Residential and commercial deadbolts with patented keyways. Keys can only be duplicated by an authorized locksmith with proper ID and authorization cards. No copies at the hardware store.
  • High security cylinders for existing hardware - Upgrade your current knob locks, lever handles, or commercial locksets by swapping the cylinder to a restricted, pick-resistant model. No need to replace the entire lock or modify the door.
  • Interchangeable core (IC) systems - Used in commercial buildings where locks need to be rekeyed quickly. A single tool swaps the core in seconds without removing the lock from the door. Ideal for property managers and facilities teams.
  • UL 437 listed locks - Locks that have passed independent lab testing for drill resistance, saw resistance, pick resistance, and key security. This is the highest standard for physical lock security available in the commercial market.
  • Government-grade hardware - GSA-approved locks and cylinders for defense contractors, secure facilities, and sensitive compartmented information facilities (SCIFs) near Peterson Space Force Base, USAFA, Schriever SFB, and NORAD.

Why It Matters

Standard Locks Have a Key Control Problem

With a standard lock, anyone who has your key for five minutes can walk into a hardware store and make a copy. You have no way to know how many copies of your key exist or who has them. For a home, that is a concern. For a business, it is a liability.

High security locks solve this with restricted keyways. The key blank is patented, and duplicates can only be cut by an authorized dealer. You control exactly how many keys exist and who receives them. When an employee leaves or a tenant moves out, you know the key cannot be copied.

Beyond key control, high security locks are physically tougher. The cylinders use hardened steel inserts that break drill bits. The pin chambers use sidebar mechanisms, rotating discs, or magnetic elements that defeat standard picking and bumping techniques. For Colorado Springs businesses and homeowners who want more than a basic lock, this is the upgrade with the biggest real-world impact on security.

Frequently Asked Questions

High Security Lock Questions from Colorado Springs Customers

What makes a lock high security?

A high security lock is built to resist picking, drilling, bumping, and forced entry. It uses a restricted keyway that cannot be duplicated at a hardware store. High security locks carry an ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 rating and many are UL 437 listed, which means they have passed independent lab tests for drill resistance, saw resistance, and pick resistance.

What brands of high security locks do you install?

We install and service Medeco, Mul-T-Lock, Abloy, Schlage Primus, and other restricted-keyway brands. The right brand depends on your security requirements, budget, and whether you need the lock to integrate with an existing master key system or access control setup.

Can high security locks be added to my existing doors?

Yes. Most high security cylinders are designed to retrofit into standard door preparations. We can upgrade your existing deadbolts, knob locks, or commercial hardware to high security cylinders without replacing the entire lockset or modifying the door.

How much do high security locks cost?

High security locks cost more than standard hardware because of the restricted keyway, patented key control, and higher-grade materials. Pricing depends on the brand, lock type, and number of doors. We provide a clear written estimate before any work begins.

Who needs high security locks?

Businesses that need to control who can copy keys, property managers with high-turnover units, government contractors working with sensitive information, homeowners in high-value properties, and anyone who wants the strongest available protection against lock manipulation and unauthorized key duplication.
