Security Locks And Keys For Your Home

 

Security Locks And Keys For Your Home, Most security experts agree that a single outer door lock will not provide adequate protection. For example, any tumbler-type lock with an opening for a key also provides an opening large enough for the lock to be picked. Thus, a combination of two different types of locks are recommended.

Here are the most common types of locks used in the home:

Spring Latch Locks: A popular and convenient lock that snaps closed whenever the bevelled latch seats into a striker plate is the spring-latch lock. However, this lock can be easily forced by inserting through the door frame a thin blade or stiff plastic between the latch and the strike plate. Thus, a spring lock should always be augmented by a second lock of a different type.
DeadBolt Locks: The dead bolt lock features a solid, rectangular latch that forms a bolt between the door frame and the door itself. This lock is difficult to force or jimmy and is a good choice as an auxiliary to any other key lock. It’s available for either key operation or manual interior knob.
Barrel-Type Bolt: A barrel-type bolt serves the same function as the dead-bolt lock but is restricted to manual, interior operation only. It may be used with an inexpensive night-latch, and it is difficult to force if it’s well made and installed properly.
Chain Locks: Used as a supplementary interior lock, the welded chain offers a valuable security feature. It permits the user to open a door partially to exchange letters, messages, or small parcels without completely unlocking the door.

For proper mounting, the slide should be installed just above and slanting toward the chain.

Remember, if you have taken possession of a new home or apartment, you should immediately change the pin-tumbler locks on all exterior doors. A registered locksmith can usually alter the previous combination.

Door Security For Your Business 

 

Door Security For Your Business, Protecting your business premises with security doors must be seen as a major consideration for all companies.

This is particularly the case when it comes to addressing front door security that needs to afford ease of access while also offering protection and safety.

Your business front door:

The front entrance to your business premises can be seen as a reflection on the type of business you run. While it needs to be inviting it also needs to be secure.

To achieve this security, it is important to choose a good quality, solid and robust front door. We say this because you must take into consideration the amount of people who will use this entrance on a daily basis.

What material is suitable for a secure front door?

There are a variety of choices for the material used in secure front doors. These include:

• Aluminium
• Composite
• uPVC
• Wood

Additional reinforcements:

Depending upon the nature of your business you may wish to include additional reinforcement features with your front door. Examples here are such things as:

• Door Bars – These are used for reinforcement of the door frame.
• Door Chains – Chains can be used to restrict how far you want the front door to open.
• Door Closers – These mechanisms allow your front door to close more easily, quickly and quietly.
• Door openers – Automatic openers can be installed to release the front door lock. This will allow you to open the door without having to physically answer it.
• Hinges – Dependent upon the level of security required you will need to assess how many hinges are necessary. You will also need to consider the type of ‘pins’ used. Your qualified door installation company can advise on the best ‘hinge’ solution to meet your needs.
• Locks – It goes without saying that locking mechanisms are an extremely important part of your front door security system. In this respect there is an extremely wide choice available.

The most suitable level of lock security will depend on the type of business you are running, but discussions with your chosen door installation company will help you to quickly establish the most appropriate solution for your needs.

Consider the decorative appearance of your front door:

As mentioned at the beginning of the piece, your front door is the main ‘gateway’ to your business.

Take into consideration the option of decorative designs, whether you want panels or windows to be in place and in terms of door colour, do you want this to match your company’s livery and brand identity.

Secure front doors for your business offer peace of mind:

It is eminently possible to have a secure front door installed at your business premises that is durable, offers a high level of security and is inviting as well as being easily accessible.

In many cases your business front door will be the most regularly used entrance on your premises.

This means that choosing a reputable, professional and fully qualified door installation company should be uppermost in your mind when looking at such an installation.

You should also be aware that coupling a secure front door in conjunction with intruder-alarms and CCTV cameras will give yourself and your staff members additional safety and peace of mind.

Door Closers and Exit Devices

All door closer manufacturers make surface mounted door closers specifically for narrow stile aluminum storefront door applications. They also all make adapter plates for installation of their non-specific surface closers in narrow stile aluminum door applications.

Door closers are often installed in the top jam configuration on narrow stile doors. Since the header tube is usually around two inches high, many closers have mounting holes placed vertically only one inch apart.

Parallel arm installation has become more popular in recent years. Because the top rail of an aluminum storefront door is often only three inches high, a drop plate is usually need to make the door closer installation possible.

For more information see Door Closer Basics

Many door closer manufacturers make concealed overhead door closers for use on aluminum storefront applications. The ones I encounter most often are:

• Dorma RTS88 series
• Jackson 100 and 300 series
• LCN 2030 series

To order, you need to know:

• Door width
• Interior or exterior door
• Degree of swing and/or hold open
• Hold open or non-hold open
• Double acting or single acting door
• Finish for cover plates and arms if necessary

 

Exit Devices

Adams Rite

Adams Rite offers a wide variety of exit devices for aluminum storefront doors, including rim, surface vertical rod, concealed vertical rod, and mortise exit devices. Adams Rite is one of the few companies that make a narrow stile surface vertical rod exit device. Some door manufacturers use or have used Adams Rite exit devices as original equipment on their products.

One nice feature of the mortise exit device is that the mortise lock that comes with it is a drop-in replacement for the 4900 or 4510 deadlatch – great to know if you need to replace a latch paddle with an exit device to comply with life safety code.

Doromatic

Doromatic offers rim and concealed vertical rod exit devices for narrow stile aluminum doors. Doromatic exit devices have been used as original equipment by some door manufacturers.

Jackson

Jackson offers rim and concealed vertical rod exit devices for narrow stile aluminum doors. Jackson exit devices have been used as original equipment by some door manufacturers.

Other Manufacturers

Corbin, Sargent, Von Duprin and Yale all offer exit devices usable on aluminum storefront doors. Some manufacturers offer devices that will fit on narrow stile doors, some only make devices that will fit on medium or wide stile doors.

To order, you need to know:

• Door width
• Door height
• Handing
• Finish
• Single door or pair of doors

When one spring is not set up correctly, you will have to start all over again. This will make your job very frustrating and tiring, not to mention costly too.

This can also help you save some money.

Garage Door Opener Repair Tips Toronto

Garage Door Opener Repair Tips Toronto

Garage doors are an integral part of your house furnishing but unfortunately, most of the times they are left unattended to whenever a repair of the household is undertaken. Hence many people are faced with problems of the like of sticking or jammed doors, unwarranted opening of the doors or its not staying open.

 

As far as sticking or jammed doors are concerned, it is usually because of deformed frames or channels through which the door slides and they can be easily repaired without much hassle.

Usually, with a simple toolkit of a hammer, a wrench a few nut and bolts and a screwdriver, you can fix most of these problems by yourself. The erratic opening and closing of the door might be due to a depressed key in the opener control or there might be some problem with the opener circuit of the which can easily be fixed. But the problem arises when some major part of it develops a defect, for example, the gears of the door opener. In such cases, a more involved repair is required. Hopefully, the following steps would give you some useful insight about repairing and replacing the worn out gears in your opener.

You can understand if the gear has broken even though the motor is working properly and the torsion springs are intact. These gears, usually made of plastic, are among the weaker parts of the opener and can be damaged due to several reasons like old age, prolonged usage without maintenance, imbalance in the garage door or may be due to a manufacturing defect.

 

But, with a few simple equipment and following the instructions properly, you can change these gears on your own.

First and foremost, you should disconnect the electric supply to the garage door to prevent any chance of electrocution and also so that no one operates the door while you are working on it. Next, you should close the door manually and remove it from the pulley to ensure that the door does not accidentally hurt you while you are servicing it. Now you are ready to set about repairing your opener and replace the gears.

 

Now you need to open the retainer cap of the belt pulley and remove the sprocket.

Now you can remove the chain or belt from the sprocket after marking its position and tape it to prevent it from getting twisted up and messy. Then remove the end covers, the drive gear, the retaining clip and the RPM sensor and also disconnect the motor. An assembly of nuts holds the motor to the shaft. You need to remove these nuts first.

 

Once you have removed the motor from the drive shaft, you can remove the gear and replace it if necessary.

Having replaced the gear, you need to start reassembling the entire system in the exactly opposite manner. Take care to see to it that each part goes into the right place to avoid any further problem with your garage door. Thus, we see that changing the worn out gears is a bit more involved. Hence, if you are not very confident about doing it yourself, you should call a professional garage door repair service to tend to the matter.

2. If your area has been hit hard by severe weather, you may encounter contractors who operate out of their pickup trucks and go door-to-door soliciting business in the wake of big storms. While it’s important to get repairs quickly, you should always do your research before hiring someone. You don’t want to get scammed or cheated, and there are undoubtedly plenty of reputable contractors in your area who specialize in storm damage repair.
3. Try getting references from your family, friends, and neighbors. If they’ve had a particularly good experience with a contractor, that might be a good place to start.
4. Contact the Better Business Bureau in your area to find out which storm damage repair contractors have received the highest ratings. The BBB keeps track of customer complaints and how companies respond to them, and they can paint you a pretty clear picture of what caliber of service any given contractor is going to provide.
5. Contact your insurance company as soon as possible to get started on your claim. Ask about your policy coverage and how to begin the filing process.
6. Keep track of the damage for your records and for insurance purposes. Take photos or video of your home, vehicles, and other property.
7. Get at least three quotes from different contractors in writing, and compare them based on labor, time, warranty, and your other specifications.
8. Verify that the storm damage repair company you choose has proper licensing and insurance. You can easily find the licensing board for your state online, and you can call the department of insurance in your state to ensure that you’ll be protected against any new damages.
9. Hold off on any permanent fixes until your insurance claim goes through, or else your repairs may not wind up being covered. You can, however, make temporary repairs, especially since you could be liable for problems that occur after the storm. If your roof is leaking, you can cover it with a tarp to prevent further water leaks, and you can board up broken windows. If you need to buy new materials to make temporary repairs, be sure to save all your receipts.
10. Make sure the contractor provides you with a detailed written contract. It should include start and completion dates, the cost of the project, warranty information, and a description of the work that needs to be done.

Garage Doors Installation Toronto

Because the average homeowner rarely buys more than one garage door (and some of them never even need to do that), then knowing what to expect during the installation process can an uncertain experience. However, it doesn’t have to be a overwhelming or difficult. After all, the biggest part of the garage door installation process is the selection of the door. Once that piece is accomplished, then the installation part is up to the garage door company.

However, if you are the type of homeowner who likes to be fully informed about every element of your home – and there’s nothing wrong with that! – then chances are you have some questions or concerns about the garage door installation process.

Here are some things to keep in mind as you begin the process of selecting a garage door and understanding the installation process.

• If you are considering putting your home on the market, then updating your garage door(s) is a great way to add value and curb appeal.
• If the door is more than 10 years old, it may be time to consider getting a new one as mechanical issues are more likely and the opener itself might not work as well.
• The older your door gets, the more likely it will be loud when opening/closing.
• The safety features that are common in new door opener designs, were not the norm on older systems.
• You need to understand the types of openers available on today’s market. The most common are chain drives, belt drives, jackshift drives, and screw drives. The quietest of these is the jackshift which is mounted to the wall, rather than ceiling, while the loudest is the screw drive openers which work with a steel rod and a trolley.
• Keep in mind that the door doesn’t do the actual lifting. Consequently, it is important that the team that does your installation, is fully certified and licensed for the work so that you can be sure it will work properly.
• Take time to look at the various features of the different types of garage door openers. From being able to open them through an app to having a battery backup or a wireless and keyless entry that doesn’t require a fob of any sort, there are many choices – beyond just considering the type of door and amount of insulation.

 

Once you have determined which type of door you want, don’t try to cut costs by doing the installation as a weekend DIY project. Talk to a garage door installation team and schedule an appointment.

 

Shower Doors Installation Tips Toronto

Shower Doors Installation Tips Toronto

Shower doors installation is something you can hire a contractor to do for you, or it is something the homeowner can do for themselves. Sometimes we have showers that are being protected by the use of curtains and then when we get a little jingle in our jeans we like to add glass doors and stop using those curtains. Do it yourself like the challenge of renovating and beautifying their homes at lower costs than it would be if they hired professional contractors to do the work.

You will need to measure the opening that you are going to place the doors over in order for you to buy the right doors for the job.

The first thing to know about shower doors installation is that not all doors fit all openings. You have to have the right size, and you have to have a door kit that will attach to the materials you have to attach to. Step one is to know the size of the opening.

 

Step two is to see what you have to attach to.

Some people are placing these items over tub openings and they will need installation materials that include tracks that are anchored to the tub, and then to the ceiling. These tracks hold the doors in place and allow them to slide open and closed. They can be installed on existing tubs.

Shower doors installation may be done on free standing shower enclosures that are made of fiberglass.

You need to look at the walls in the room and see if you are going to attach the framework to sheetrock, paneling, or some other material. Knowing the material you will be working with will help you to buy all of the components you need and keep you from making several trips to the hardware supply store.

 

You are going to need a good screwdriver with a Phillips head and one with a flat head.

A battery powered screwdriver or drill with changeable tips will make the job easier to complete. You are also going to need the drill if you are going to install tracks in a pre-existing tub. You will need a waterproof caulk to seal around the framework and make the doors completely watertight. Make sure the caulk you choose to use is proper for indoor use, and that it can be painted or stained to make it look nicer when the installation is complete.

 

You are more than likely going to need a friend to come and help you hold the door panels in place during installation. This will prevent you from dropping or damaging the items while you are installing them. Your friend can also hand you tools when you need them and help you refer to the installation guide that will come with the door unit that you buy.

You might be surprised to learn that there are different types of locksmiths around. This is essential especially for those who want a more specialized service. Residential, commercial, automotive and forensics are the types of locksmiths that are accessible although the forensic ones are rare as they usually work with investigative agencies or law enforcement agencies.

Residential

Residential locksmiths are experts when it comes to making the home safe and secure. As most homes have the regular locks installed near window frames, it might compromise the safety of the family. These experts can install a double cylinder lock that needs a key inside for the door to open to give extra security. Aside from this base-knowledge they can also re-key locks as well as have them replaced in such a way that these are not easily tampered. They can also do entry gates, screen doors, sliding as well as emergency services.

Commercial

A commercial locksmith specializes in locks that are manufactured for business purposes. Examples would be installation of panic bars, replacing locks in file cabinets, installation of automatic door closer, safe/vault installation as well as installing a master-key system. Panic bars are especially important as they would provide workers a means to exit the building premises in case of emergencies.

 

Services

In choosing the locksmith that would best suit your need(s), it is important to deal with a company that is licensed and has done background checks on their employees. This is to make sure that the company that you would be transacting with is legal and since some items in the house might be valuable or important documents are inside vaults or safes, one is assured that the person they are dealing with is someone who they can trust. Consider talking with someone who knows a reputable locksmith especially if you’ve just moved in or purchased a new home or office.
