Police typically recommend using high-quality deadbolt locks, specifically ANSI Grade 1 or Grade 2 deadbolts, for exterior doors. They also advise installing locks with a reinforced strike plate and screws at least 3 inches long to resist forced entry. Additionally, many recommend avoiding simple spring-latch locks, as these are easier to bypass.
