Our verdict

A heavy duty residential deadbolt with top grade certification and a reinforced strike for exterior doors. The listing contradicts itself on whether the inside is keyed or a turn unit, so confirm the version.

Overview

Front doors and exterior entrances with a second bore hole are where this Schlage deadbolt goes, adding a hardened steel bolt alongside the existing handle. Anti-drill plates, tamper resistant pins and a reinforced strike guard against kick-ins, prying and drilling.

Attack resistance is the reason to fit it, with a spinning pin bolt, anti-drill plates and long strike screws working together against forced entry. Installation is easy with a screwdriver, but the inside operation needs confirming before purchase.

Who it's for

Suits exterior doors where forced entry is the worry and the owner wants to install the lock with basic tools. Households that need quick keyless exit from inside should check the version carefully, since a double keyed lock requires a key to open from inside.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Hardened steel spinning pin bolt
  • Anti-drill plates and anti-manipulation pins
  • Reinforced strike with long screws
  • Top BHMA grade certification
Cons
  • Inside operation unclear in the listing
  • Needs a door with two bore holes
  • Finish details only in the title

Performance notes

Kick-in resistance depends as much on the strike as the bolt, which is why the reinforcer and long screws anchor into the frame. The hardened bolt, anti-drill plates and anti-manipulation pins address drilling, manipulation and bumping, so the weak point shifts to the door and frame themselves.

Frequently asked questions

Is this Schlage deadbolt keyed on both sides?

The title says keyed on both sides, but the bullets describe a key outside and a turn unit inside. Confirm the version before ordering, since a double keyed lock needs a key to exit.

How do I install this Schlage deadbolt?

It installs with only a screwdriver on doors with two bore holes, and self-aligning screw holes help line it up. The universal latch slides in without tools.

Will this Schlage deadbolt stop kick-ins?

It includes an integrated strike reinforcer with 3 in screws to help protect against kick-in attacks. No lock can promise full protection.
