We supply fit, service and rekey a wide range of locks
The Lockwood 007 deadbolt is a heavy-duty lock that is suitable for commercial, residential and architectural applications. It comes in a range of colours including satin chrome, polished chrome and polished brass.
The Lock is unique in its design compared to most other deadbolts on the market in that it offers positive locking so that the key cannot be removed until the bolt has deadlocked in the frame.
This innovative design ensures that the deadlocking tigger in the latch locks into place each time you lock the door.

By having to turn the key a full 360 degrees it ensures full extension of the bolt into the frame. Cheaper models don’t turn 360 degrees, so there is a chance of taking the key out before deadlocking has occurred. The danger is that if the lock has not deadlocked an intruder could slide the bolt back out of the frame to gain entry. We have come across an alarmingly high proportion of deadbolts that did not deadlock due to incorrect installation or wear and tear.
When fitting deadbolts it is important that the installation is carried out by an experienced professional. If not installed correctly, the deadlocking trigger may not activate. We recommend having your deadbolt checked by an experienced locksmith if it has been on the door for more than 5 years especially if it is a cheaper brand. At Link Locksmith we stock a wide range of locks and offer a bona fide 24 hour lockout service to Chatswood.
When it comes to fitting deadbolts we recommend a positive locking deadbolt such as the 007. The cost of a having it installed will be a little bit more than that of a standard lock, but for the many years that the lock will be protecting your home we believe it is extra money worth spending.
A well designed deadbolt will also have concealed fixing screws that are covered by an extra layer of protection preventing access to the screws. The Lockwood design requires the correct key to be inserted and turned before the lock can be taken off the door.
