help Mul-T-Lock Deadbolt FAQ
How pick-resistant is the Mul-T-Lock deadbolt compared to a standard Kwikset or Schlage?
Mul-T-Lock deadbolts use telescopic pin tumbler technology with interactive key blanks that make them significantly more resistant to picking, bumping, and drilling than standard residential locks from Kwikset or Schlage. They are widely used in commercial and high-security applications where these attack methods are a concern.
Is Mul-T-Lock part of ASSA ABLOY?
Yes, Mul-T-Lock is a brand under the ASSA ABLOY group, which is one of the largest global manufacturers of door opening solutions. This gives Mul-T-Lock access to ASSA ABLOY's broader research and engineering infrastructure for continuous product development.
Can I rekey a Mul-T-Lock deadbolt myself or do I need a specialized locksmith?
Unlike standard pin-tumbler locks that can be rekeyed with a common rekeying kit, Mul-T-Lock cylinders require proprietary tools and specialized pin components. You will need to contact an authorized Mul-T-Lock dealer or certified locksmith for any rekeying services.
Does the Mul-T-Lock deadbolt meet ANSI Grade 1 or Grade 2 standards?
Many Mul-T-Lock deadbolt models meet or exceed ANSI/BHMA Grade 1 standards, which is the highest residential and commercial security rating. The specific grade depends on the model line, so verify the ANSI certification marking on the product packaging or Mul-T-Lock's specification sheet.
