How to Choose A Lock Brand
There are many questions you have to answer
before you buy a lock. Do you need it for the
door of a house or an apartment, a store or an
office building? Should you use a standard lock
or high security? What about key less systems?
How many people need copies of the keys? Your
answers might point to very different types of
lock. To help you choose, heres a rundown of a
few of the major lock and key manufacturers and
their products.

Standard Lock Brands
Kwikset is one of the most widespread brands
of standard locks and locksets. Founded in 1946,
their first locks pioneered the tubular lock
design, now commonly used for bicycle locks and
coin-operated machines. Kwikset products today
are easy to find in any hardware store. In 2013,
they released a Bluetooth-enabled smart lock
called Kevo

High Security Lock Brands
MedecoMedeco and Mul-T-Lock are the two
high security lock brands most used by locksmiths
in Cincinnati, and in the US overall. Medeco
locks combine off-center chisel-tipped pins
inside the lock cylinder with angled cuts on
their keys to make a mechanism that is nearly
impossible to pick. (In 2007, however, a group
of researchers developed a method for bumping
them open with plastic keys.) They used patented
key control systems to prevent unauthorized
duplicating. Medeco has also worked on
electronic locks since the 1990s.

Mul-T-LockMul-T-Lock, an Israeli company,
pioneered the four- way door lock system in 1973.
They now provide high security locks to 70
countries, for houses, apartments, businesses and
industrial buildings. They are active in
innovating electromechanical lock products and
key-cutting machines with specialized software,
as well as producing high security locks,
industrial locks, access control systems and
other equipment.
