Do you know the difference between a Bi-Axial and  Bi-Level Medeco Lock?

If not the following information will clarify a wide misconception persisting in the South Florida market:

Medeco is the best high security lock manufacturer in the world, there is no denying this fact. The Maxum, the most popular of its locks is perhaps the most widely installed and is responsible for protecting millions of families and business. It protects at the door level having anti-bump, anti-drill, and anti-picking mechanisms, but also at the key level with the famous restricted duplication system patented by Medeco. But High Security comes at a higher price level.

For this reason, Medeco saw the need to compete with lower quality locks in the market and created the Bi-Level version of the Maxum Bi-Axial Lock, maintaining the restricted key duplication feature of the lock set while rescinding all its anti-burglary design features, thus, catering to the more budget oriented customer with great success.

It is very important  that you as a consumer be mindful about the difference between these two options, the Bi-Axial and Bi-Level Locks. It is common in South Florida, for many Locksmith companies to bypass educating customers about the different options in quality and pricing to only offer the lower quality Bi-Level option, which is less expensive than the Bi-Axial, without clarifying what they are really installing.

We at ASAP Lock & Safe always educate you  about the benefits of High Security and offer several budget scenarios.
