Deadbolt locks are one of the most common types of locks used on patio doors. They provide additional security by extending a solid metal bolt into the door jamb when locked. Deadbolts are available in single or double cylinder options. Single cylinder deadbolts are operated with a key from the outside and a thumbturn from the inside, while double cylinder deadbolts require a key for both sides. It is important to consider safety measures when choosing a double cylinder deadbolt, as they may pose a risk in emergency situations where a quick exit is necessary.
