Customer Reviews for Prime-Line Texas Security Bolt, Stamped Steel Construction, Chrome Plated Finish

My toddler elopes and they can open any lock on the door. I had to find something they could not figure out. This lock seems to be the perfect one. They have not tried to reach it or go out the front door since I put it on. It was easy to install, took just a few minutes! Seems sturdy, like it would hold up to someone trying to come in the door.

Required by law for rental properties to protect tenants from folks with keys. We install them on all of our properties. They would also make it tougher for someone to kick in a door adding extra strength to the door by adding 4 3" screws which screw into the wall studs adding support to the door jamb itself.

We purchased this item to help keep our 2 1/2 year old Houdini from escaping out through the garage door (and front door)....again. The other chain locks required being screwed into the door. Since our door to the garage is a fire door and the front door is steel, we did not want to damage the doors. This lock works perfectly as the mechanism is screwed into the door jamb with really really long screws that would seem to be impossible for even a battering ram to break through. The flat metal plate does a superior job in keeping the door all the way closed when little hands attempt to open the door to make their escape.

I saw it at someone's house, and recommended to me.. It was easy to install and not to bulky. I just bought it this weekemd. It's just enough added security.

this is the only one that is approved.

I bought two of these but had to exchange the one with no screws in it. got a new one with the screws!

Finally found what I been looking for for long time. Now I feel secure.

Needed 3 of these for a rental property in Texas. They were super easy to install and took less than 15 minutes for all 3. Would definitely recommend these for added security.

These are nice devices but the don't fit the requirements for a keyless bolting device per Texas property code in my opinion. The second paragraph states that a keyless bolt devices does not include a chain devices which is exactly what this is.

Provides a secure lock for exterior doors, easy to install.

Well it's so far so good for my 4 yr old son

This is the most secure device I have ever seen. It has blocked someone trying to kick in our door and is very easy to install. Fast, inexpensive, secure. Highly recommend everyone have this device installed on their doors.

This locking mechanism is attractive, easy to install, & securely locks any door safely. Takes about 2 seconds to secure the door safely. I've used this style lock before. Good product.

Easy to install and always at the Home Depot!! Thank you

Install was fairly simple - no drilling required. This is a secure alternative to a one-sided deadbolt that meets Texas Property Code standards.

With toddlers that learned how to unlock the doors, this is an easy inexpensive fix to keeping them locked in. Lol

Used them for some townhomes and they worked out great.

I install dozens of these in rental units because they meet the code where I live. Unlike many kits that come with screws, the screws that come in this kit are high quality. If your bit skips a little, you won't have a stripped screw head. As far as security, these are superior to the other latches on the market. They are really strong.

Great lock with a better look than a regular chain lock.
