Call NowChoose lock hardware that fits the security door
Start with the door and frame. A separate outer security door may have a different mounting space and latch position than the door behind it. Tell us whether the existing lock is worn, whether the door closes freely and how you use the entrance.
If you want to replace the lock, share photos of the inside, outside and door edge. For a shared or commercial entrance, include any requirements from the property owner or manager and describe who uses the door. We can discuss what fits and what work is appropriate for the opening.
Security Door Locks FAQ
Can I add a second lock to a security door?
That depends on the door material, available space and frame. If it’s a rental or shared entrance, confirm permission and hardware requirements with the owner or manager before choosing a lock.
Can I replace just the lock on the outer security door?
Tell us what is installed and how the door closes. Whether a replacement fits depends on the opening, hardware and condition of the door.
What if the door closes but the latch does not line up?
Mention that before choosing hardware. The alignment at the frame can affect how the current lock and any replacement operate.
