Medeco Maxum Double Cylinder Residential Deadbolt with High-Security Key Control
The Medeco Maxum Double Cylinder Residential Deadbolt delivers industry-leading physical security and key control for demanding residential applications. Featuring the Medeco 4 (M4) patent-pending design, this UL 437 Listed and BHMA A156.5 Grade 1 Certified deadbolt protects against unauthorized key duplication, bumping, picking, drilling, wrenching, and kicking attacks. A solid 1" hardened steel bolt housed in heavy-gauge tubular steel provides maximum resistance to physical attack, and the unit fits doors 1 3/8" to 2 1/2" thick with a standard 2 1/8" crossbore and 1" edge bore (ANSI A115.13 prep).
Key Features
- High-Security Bolt Construction: Solid 1" hardened steel bolt and bolt-throwing mechanism surrounded by a heavy-gauge tubular steel housing for maximum resistance to crowbar and physical attacks.
- Door Thickness Compatibility: Fits doors 1 3/8" to 2 1/2" thick with a standard 2 1/8" crossbore and 1" edge bore (ANSI A115.13 prep) for straightforward installation.
- Medeco 4 (M4) Key Control: Patent-pending key control technology protects against unauthorized duplication of keys, including deterrence against 3D-printed key copies or blanks, ensuring only authorized individuals can duplicate keys.
- Drill and Pick Resistance: Hardened steel inserts and rotating pins provide drill and pick resistance per UL 437 standard; solid-brass construction with strategically placed drill pins offers maximum protection.
- Steel Shroud Over Bolt: Steel shroud over the bolt protects against "ice pick" type attacks, adding an additional layer of physical security beyond the bolt itself.
- High-Security Strike Plate: Special box-design strike plate secured with 2" screws that anchor directly to the building structure behind the frame, preventing kick-in type attacks.
- Master Keying Capabilities: M4 deadbolts can be master keyed into systems that include M4, M4 BiLevel, and M4 CLIQ keys and cylinders, supporting extremely large master key systems.
- Special Angle Cut Keys: Requires a special key cutting machine and Medeco-specific blanks; angled cuts plus fore and aft positioning dramatically increase key combinations for large master key systems.
- Available Finishes: Offered in 14 finishes including Bright Brass (05), Satin Brass (06), Antique Brass (09), Satin Brass Blackened (10), Bright Bronze (11), Satin Bronze (12), Oil Rubbed Bronze (13), Bright Nickel (18), Satin Nickel (19), Antique Nickel (20), Black (22), Dark Bronze (24), Bright Chrome (25), and Satin Chrome (26).
