Medeco M3 locks bumped and picked

For quite some time now, I have been extolling the virtues of the Bilock lock system and continually explaining to all, the misleading statements being bandied about by Medeco and certain locksport groups that the Medeco product was supposedly bump proof.

This week at DefCon 15, evidence was produced exposing Medeco locks are indeed susceptible to bumping and picking.

Here is a video showing a 12 year old girl bumping a Medeco M3 cylinder.

Bioaxxis BD1 - Fingerprint scanner deadbolt.

I have just returned from ALOA, the national conference of the Associated Locksmiths Of America, where I learned about the many innovative products available to the security industry.
One such product is the Bioaxxis BD1 biometric deadbolt lock.

This sensational product is a major improvement in biometric locking systems and surprisingly reasonably priced. It is also aesthetically pleasing.

Perhaps the bigger benefit is the ability to use a conventional rim cylinder as the key overide mechanism. This is particularly useful for locksmiths and access control companies because this negates the need for special additional purchase cylinders.

Features:

	Five pin tumbler rekeyable KW1 keyway, as compared to most biometric locks with proprietary keyways (Unique Feature)
	Includes three nickel plated brass keys (Unique Feature)
	Solid brass cylinder plug (Unique Feature)
	One inch brass deadbolt with case-hardened steel roller pin to resist sawing, as compared to hollow tin deadbolts for most other biometric locks (Unique Feature)
	Each lock package includes one 60mm and one 70mm backset, as compared to more damage-prone adjustable backsets (Unique Feature)
	Certified heavy-duty deadbolt (Unique Feature)
	High-quality motor is rated for 800,000 operations (Unique Feature)
	Weatherproof - Fully resistant to rain, snow, temperature extremes, humidity, UV and dust. No other biometric deadbolt can make these claims (Unique Feature)
	Two Year Warranty - as compared to most locks with a one year warranty (Unique Feature)
	Deadbolt is mounted internally through the door for better security, as opposed to externally on the door like many other biometric deadbolts
	Elegant and contemporary appearance
	Non-Handed - will fit any left or right handed door
	Additional security added with keyhole cover
	Up to 30 users (each user can scan fingerprint 2 times for total of 60 fingerprints)
	Sliding weather cover triggers sensor to power on automatically
	Sliding weather cover also triggers deadbolt to re-engage (no tricky buttons to push or PIN Codes to recall)
	Easy to install
	Easy to program and operate
	Battery operation with low battery alert - non-volatile memory will not delete stored fingerprints (even if batteries expire)

Locks210.com will be including this product in our inventory in the very near future.

The Door Signal

This nouveau design Door Signal handle is a revolutionary new concept from Yanko design. The obvious uses of this design would be for the hotel industry, although it could be a revolutionary security device for residential doors especially for close fitting screens.

The pulley mechanism, is designed to retract and extend, providing no way to grip the handle and thereby open the door.

The ingenuity employed here is in thinking outside the box and many European lock designers have been pushing the envelopes of design for many years. The security application of the handle would exceed more common handle types on the market today.

How much does a StrikeMaster II cost? $109.95 plus shipping/handling and installation.

A former police officer was recently quoted. "I am a retired Chief of Police with more than 30 years in law enforcement and security and have investigated 1000's of residential burglaries and domestic assaults that were due to the crashing or kicking in of the doors at the home. .... I am proud to announce that I have seen an amazing new product called the StrikeMaster II. This is inexpensive and stronger than any would-be homicidal maniac, I promise... the security market has finally produced a product that is better than locks and alarms. I highly recommend this product on all your outside doors at your home." - Donald Purnell CLL, CFE, Director of Security, Sentry Watch, Inc.

There are numerous testimonials to the quality of this product. One in particular is:
"On the 16th of May, 2005, our home in Chicago was broken into by thieves who shouldered/kicked their way in, through 3 separate doors, one entry and two apartments. A considerable amount of valuables and memorabilia were stolen, including identity theft. Upon observing the 'ease' of entry by these thieves, we set about investigating door protection measures on the internet.
After observing a very graphic video on the 'Safe Home International' site, we ordered the StrikeMaster II for overnight delivery, with the caveat that we would do a 'real-life' test after installation. My installer naturally had his doubts, as I asked him to kick and shoulder the door, after the product was installed. He asked me who would pay for the door frame repair 'in case it didn't work as advertised,'I said I would be responsible, since the safety of our family and property was of utmost concern. I weigh in at 240 lbs and I 'shouldered/kicked' the door three times, without it's failing. My installer, who closely approximates the LARGE individual in the graphic video, had at the door next. He shouldered it twice and kicked it last, his size 11 shoe imprint is still on the back door, although the wall seemed to 'bow in,' the door did not budge. My installer came away convinced, and I came away satisfied, that I made my Family and my Home that much more secure.
The cost/benefit ratio as well is definitely in favor of the StrikeMaster II in comparison with other devices currently on the market. To say that we are more than pleased with the results we obtained from the product, as well as it's support, would be an accurate assessment. -APA Chicago"
