Maybe you have a swinging door latch installed on your front door. Maybe you don't. Maybe you are just about to install one for the first time. Whatever the case may be, here are some great ideas to help you make the right choice when it comes to installing your own swinging door latch
Know what type of latch you nee
Before choosing a specific type of swinging door latch, decide which type will work best for your situation. The most common types are the dead bolt and chain lock. There are also other options like mortise locks, keyed locks and knob locks that can be used instead of or in addition to these two types of latches
Look at other option
If you want to add security to an existing door but aren't sure how much that would cost or how difficult it would be to install, consider looking into adding another locking mechanism such as a sliding bolt or sliding bar lock instead. These types of locking mechanisms can be added onto almost any type of door (even ones with no edges), whereas dead bolts require specific measurements for installation purposes
