We have always been confident in our locks ability to prevent forced entry through a standard wood framed door. The number one point of entry for any home in america after all is the front and back doors. We have taken the liberty to put The Ultimate Lock up against both standard deadbolts and pro deadbolts. To make sure the test was conducted fairly we used a 20 pound battering ram to simulate a kick and used three identical doors with the only difference being the locks installed on them of course. Here are the results from our deadbolt test as well as an analysis of the value provided.
