As everyone kows i am a construction worker when not in college, anyway were installing new doors and new locks in this building. We had to pick out the doors and locks. So to get the best answere i want to explain the application. The doors where installing are doors to rooms where patients of the new counceling center will be sleeping. Not all of them are nutcases, but some are. So my boss chose reinforced doors (mostly due to building code for a metal treatment facility) anyway now that the doors are picked theres going to be roughly 15 rooms, and a therapy room and also a mainl office for this section. So my question is what lock type would be a good application for a master key system in this scenerio. As far as pickability its not really the concern, its the force attack durabilty (kicking open) becuase there not going to have picks or a drill sledge hammer thermite ect. in a metal treatment facility. I thought of a best cylinder? Medeco is expensive very storng but it might be overkill? So any suggestions would be appreciated, also the door flames and strike plates are very strong(building codes as mentioned) so its basically i need a good lock with good force resistance and good for master key systems. If you need any more details feel free to ask or PM me. Thanks guys

The building code will tell you what function of locks are required, and the contractor should know that.

As far as brand name, any grade 1 lock of actual name brand SFIC would be more than adequate for your application. Function will depend on the application and building codes. 8)
