How Can I Make My Bedroom Door More Secure?

When it comes to securing a home, people are mostly focused on their external doors. What about your internal doors though? Is there a good way to make your bedroom door more secure?

Whether you share your home with other people or want to feel safer when you’re tucked away in bed, there are a few options available to you. Keep in mind that most of these options will require the assistance of a locksmith.

Products That Make Your Bedroom Door More Secure

  • Strike Plate Lock. A strike plate lock makes it more difficult for someone to kick in your bedroom door. These locks use longer screws, which is what holds the strike plate in place. It’s placed close to the door lock and has a hook that connects to the doorknob or handle. You can only use this lock from inside your bedroom.

  • Security Bar or Barricade. Another solution that works from inside a bedroom is a security bar or barricade. You can fit a security bar between the floor and your door handle, which helps prevents intrusions. Door barricades are also connected to both the door and floor, making the door immovable when it’s in place.

  • High Security Locks. Whether you are inside the room or not, a high security lock can make your bedroom door more secure. High security locks are made with high-quality metal as well as heavy deadbolts. They are also fitted with anti-picking technology to prevent lock bumping – you can read more about how to prevent lock bumping here.
  • Keyless Door Reinforcement. This device is installed on the door jamb and stops the door from opening even if it’s unlocked.

  • Smart Locks. Lastly, there’s the option to forgo traditional keys altogether. Smart locks are locked and unlocked using an app on your smartphone, so not just anyone can get in. As an extra measure, you can also add a deadbolt to the mix.

If you need advice or assistance with any of these options, contact Quickly Locksmith on (305) 984-9922.

    Our Tips For Getting The Best Locksmith Services In Miami FL:

    We truly care about your security. Keeping you, your family and your most valuable possessions safe is why we are in business. However, whenever you are looking to hire a residential locksmith service, here are some valuable tips to make the right choice.

    FAQ

    HOW DO I KNOW WHETHER MY MIAMI LOCKSMITH IS CERTIFIED?
    When a Miami locksmith completes their official application process, they are issued with a Locksmith ID car. Locksmiths in Miami are required to display this card at all times when performing any services, regardless of the location.
    HOW LONG WILL A LOCKSMITH TAKE TO ARRIVE?
    When you’re working with the Quickly Locksmith Miami team, you can expect someone to arrive at your exact location within 15 minutes. This ensures we can get you back into your home or car as soon as possible.
    WHAT DOES A CERTIFICATION GUARANTEE?
    Your certified Miami locksmith’s work comes with a complete warranty for your locks, your property (doors/ hallways, etc.), and of course your well-being. If anything happens you share no liability, and your locks & security systems are 100% insured.
    CAN A MIAMI LOCKSMITH OPEN ALL LOCKS?
    A locksmith that has the right tools and years of experience can open almost any lock. If that’s not an option, the lock can always be replaced. Either way, your home and valuables will be safe and secure.
    CAN AN AUTO LOCKSMITH CREATE A SPARE KEY AT MY LOCATION?
    When you are locked out of your car, the last thing you want to do is arrange a ride to a locksmith shop. The Quickly Locksmith Miami mobile unit will not only meet you at your location but also help you with a replacement car key on the spot.
    DO I NEED THE ORIGINAL KEY TO MAKE A KEY COPY?
    Not necessarily. If your original key has been lost or is damaged, a Miami locksmith can use a code cutter to identify the depth of grooves in a lock’s key code. This information can then be used to create a new key.
