Also, The New York Times has rated the  Schlage B60N as the Best Residential Door lock too. Professional locksmiths are offered a choice between this Schlage model and a similarly qualified deadbolt lock from Kwikset, they unanimously voted for Schlage.

Mr. Locksmith Vancouver BC recommends the Schlage B60N is our pick as the best deadbolt for residential customers. This single-cylinder lock is affordable, widely available. Schlage is known to be a top maker of heavy duty deadbolts. It produces different models designed for various purposes. 

Best Residential Deadbolt Lock

What is the best residential deadbolt lock? It's, this is not my opinion, My favorite Residential and Commerical deadbolt is the Schlage Locks B560 and B660 Deadbolts. I really like and prefer the commercial grade deadbolts. So we have a light-duty commercial, a heavy-duty commercial, and they have a residential version. And it has been rated by different magazines and articles as the best residential deadbolt. Nothing really close to this one. It's called the Schlage B60N Deadbolt.

There are all sorts of different numbers that show the finish etc. So let's just pull this apart and I'll put it on the door and I'll show you why this is probably the best residential lock, dollar for dollar. Now, if you know my videos, you know I love putting on the heavy-duty, the same locks I put on the hospitals and school boards and businesses, this is heavy-duty. It's quite solid and it's made by the same company. So this is the Schlage B660. This is the Schlage B560, it's a little bit lighter-duty version. And you've seen my videos on why I love these. These are more expensive, but they're probably the best commercial locks. And if you look at your schools and your hospitals, this is what they are using in most cases. Now, for residential, this is a great lock and I am going to show you what we have here. This is the B60N and let's just see what we got here. It is a six-pin keyway. This is the Classic or "C" Keyway (SC4).
