Medeco Residential Introduction PDF

BEAUTY IS THE BEAST
THE SECURITY THAT HAS
PROTECTED BUSINESSES
FOR YEARS IS NOW
AVAILABLE FOR YOUR HOME.
Innovations by Medeco Security Locks launched
the high security lock industry over a quarter of
a century ago. It wasn’t enough for Medeco to
make a slightly better lock. We formulated a
new type of lock that resisted picking, forced
entry, prying, and hammering. And that assured
customers that their keys couldn’t be copied
without their authorization through strong utility
patents on the locks and the keys. No wonder
Medeco has set the standard for security in
colleges, hospitals, research facilities, and
businesses of all types.
Now, Medeco is offering the same robust
security features in a line of hardware for your
home. These new locks are available in styles
that make a dramatic statement on your door.
To your neighbors, they represent a fashionable
and elegant lockset.
But to thieves, they represent the need to move
on to an easier target.

UNRIVALED IN SECURITY, BEAUTY, AND QUALITY.
QUALITY YOU CAN
GET A HANDLE ON.
When you find a product that combines
timeless beauty with high-quality construction,
you take notice. Each Medeco residential lockset
features beautifully styled, solid brass construction with heavy-duty mounting hardware. Finishes
are deep in luster and color and resist unsightly
tarnishing and fading.
While you’ll love the beauty and quality of the
new Medeco residential locks, you’ll respect
what’s on the inside even more. Medeco locks
are designed and built to give you years of
faultless security – just ask any locksmith.
Medeco locks are only sold through security
professionals. So should you need service, you
get help from an expert – not an hourly clerk at
a large home store chain.

Think of all the people who have access
to your house key:
:: Your auto mechanic
:: Babysitter
:: Valet parking or parking lot attendants
:: Cleaning service
If you have a normal key, they could take it to any
of the thousands of places that will duplicate keys.
Without being asked for any identification, any of
these people could effortlessly have a copy of
your house key. You’d never know what hit you.
But not if you have a Medeco key.

It’s easy to be so taken by the beauty
of Medeco’s residential locks that you overlook
the incredible lock itself.

YOUR KEY CAN BE COPIED ONLY
WITH YOUR AUTHORIZATION.
Your family is on the other side of that door.
Along with everything you’ve worked so hard to
attain. Are you going to be content with a lock
whose beauty is only skin deep? Take a look at
these features, and you’ll see why you shouldn’t
trust your home to any lock but Medeco.
Medeco offers utility patented key control. Our
keys are special with angled cuts, fore and aft pin
positioning, and millions of combinations. They
are only available to authorized Medeco dealers,
who follow strictly enforced legal procedures
when making copies of your key. They must
positively match your identification and keep
records of every key cut. So only Medeco
security professionals can copy your key, and
only with your permission. With Medeco, you
don’t have to worry that someone has a key (that
you didn’t know about) that will unlock your door.
Medeco’s utility
patented design
prevents unauthorized
people from
duplicating your key.
