Additional locks are locks that are placed as an extra lock in a door. Often there is already a lock present, or there is already an option to lock a door. The locks are available with different backset sizes.

Why choose a side lock?

Having an extra lock is not mandatory, but it is highly recommended. This is because an additional lock significantly improves the security of a home. It is recommended by the Police Quality Mark for Safe Living (PKVW). A door with one lock is easier to force than a door with multiple locks. Especially when the second lock is placed in a different location.

Secure doors with additional locks

Making your home burglar-resistant does not have to cost a lot of money. You can buy some locks and accessories that can secure both your doors and windows well. You may feel safe enough with a security lock , but the fact is that today we need more to keep burglars out of our homes.

You could perhaps install an additional lock in your front door. It serves as extra security and it will take even longer for them to find a way into the house. There are different types of additional locks:

• Pen locks
• Additional mortise locks
• Additional rim locks
• Door or window latches
• Window trees
• Mortise latches

The pin lock is the most commonly installed and is ideal for wooden doors. They must be maintained, otherwise they can fail. They also have quite large keys, but they are easy to install.

Mortise locks are a bit more difficult to install, but that also gives you the feeling that they are more difficult to break through. They must be purchased together with a profile cylinder, security fittings and locking bowl and may therefore cost a little more money, but they are worth the money.

Chances are you are already familiar with rim locks. They are operated with a button and are used more as a main lock on storage and box doors. This is used less and less as an additional lock.

And then we come to the windows. Door or window latches can only be locked from the inside. You have a choice between keys and push buttons when it comes to opening and closing them. They are available in different models.

A window tree comes with a locking bowl or locking hook and these can also be operated with keys or push buttons. They can also only be locked from the inside.

Mortise latches have been around for a while. It is actually better to choose a different side lock because it can fail quite quickly. In addition, there is a possibility that you will suffer door damage when you want to replace it, because this lock can only be opened from the inside.
