High Security Hardware

Securitex Locksmith specializes in high-security and commercial-grade hardware for environments where safety is non-negotiable. Our solutions feature pick- and drill-resistant locks and restricted key systems that prevent unauthorized copying. Utilizing mortise locks, mechanical deadbolts, and electronic keypads, we provide protection that goes well beyond standard hardware.  High security means more than just strong locks—it’s a layered approach combining physical barriers, controlled access, video monitoring, and alarm systems, all tracked with audit trail software. For high-traffic or demanding sites, we recommend durable, architectural-grade hardware to ensure long-lasting reliability and comprehensive protection.

Industry Security Standards

Selecting reliable security hardware requires understanding the industry standards that measure performance and durability. Two of the most respected certifying organizations are the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and Underwriters Laboratories (UL).  ANSI, in collaboration with the Builders Hardware Manufacturers Association (BHMA), provides a grading system that ranks locksets based on security, strength, and longevity. These ANSI/BHMA grades help ensure that the hardware you choose can handle daily use while meeting your specific security requirements.

Hardware Built to Surpass Industry Standards

Underwriters Laboratories (UL) offers additional certification with the UL 437 standard, which evaluates the pick resistance of keyed locks. This rating is a recognized benchmark for a lock’s ability to withstand sophisticated tampering techniques. For instance, the Kwikset Signature Series 980 deadbolt meets the demanding UL 437 11.6.1 pick test, one of the toughest in the industry.  The test involves using specialized tools to manipulate the lock’s internal mechanisms, requiring significant skill to bypass. Locks that pass this rigorous evaluation provide enhanced protection and assure users that their security hardware meets the highest professional standards.
