"Super" Brand Deadbolt

Information about locks themselves. Questions, tips and lock diagram information should be posted here.

"Super" Brand Deadbolt

Postby nice7175 » 19 Feb 2007 23:20

I picked up a deadbolt from my local hardware store and the brand is "Super" i did a search and couldn't find any info on this brand. Is this a good brand? Is it closer to a Kwikset or a Schlage?

Thanks :)
It's a simple question Doctor, would you eat the moon if it were made of ribs?!

Some pictures would help. Ive never heard of that brand, but it probably isn't that good and I'm guessing it would be closer to a kwikset in terms of pick resistance.

I've been playing with it and I can pick it just as fast as a kwikset and there are no security pins.

you mean strip and down and make sure there are no security pins? i already did, it just has 5 normal pins. i'm almost positive by now that it isn't any better than a kwikset.

we have schlages on all the doors to my house except for the one kwikset in the back. my dad installed all these locks and if i had known anything about locks at the time i probably would have insisted that he buy more secure locks. but i think that schlage is as good as it gets if you're just going to run out to home depot or lowes to pick up a lock.
