  • Keyless Entry System
  • REMODELING Magazine (4/4/2007)

Add, delete, or change up to 19 individual access codes. 800.847.1864.
  • NightWatch Deadbolt
  • REMODELING Magazine (4/4/2007)

To activate, lock the deadbolt as usual, then pull the lever while depressing a safety release that prevents accidental activation. In this “engaged” position, the NightWatch blocks out any key and is impossible to pick. The lock is engaged and disengaged from indoors only. 414.571.5625.
