Locks & Deadbolts

A solid deadbolt is one of the most straightforward upgrades you can make to a home’s security. Single cylinder deadbolts are the standard choice for most exterior doors — keyed from the outside, thumb turn on the inside. Finish matching matters if you’re pairing a deadbolt with existing door hardware, and keyed-alike options are worth considering if you’d rather not carry multiple keys for different doors. Kwikset and Ace both offer dependable options at Nixa Hardware & Seed Co in finishes ranging from satin nickel and polished brass to oil rubbed bronze for most standard exterior door applications.
