Entry door lock

An entry door lock is a security mechanism installed on exterior doors to prevent unauthorized access. It typically consists of a lock body, latch or bolt, and a keyhole or keypad. These locks come in various types, including deadbolts, knob locks, lever handle locks, and smart locks. Deadbolts are known for their strength and resistance to forced entry. Keyed locks require a physical key, while smart locks use electronic methods like codes, biometrics, or smartphone access. Many modern entry locks offer features such as remote control, auto-locking, and integration with home security systems. They are usually made from durable metals like brass, steel, or zinc alloy. Proper installation and quality materials ensure optimal security and long-term reliability.
