What are deadlatches used for?
Deadlatches are used when an entry door should latch automatically as it closes, reducing the chance of the door being left unsecured.
They are practical for front doors, apartments and frequent-use entries where quick inside exit, key access and reliable daily locking matter.

I locked myself out of my apartment on a Friday night and I was freaking out, trying to figure out if it was cheaper to get a locksmith or just break my own window. I spoke with David at Lock Masters and he had a locksmith out sooo quickly and for a good, fair price. Much better than smashing my own window! Haha Thanks again
