Not all doors, knobs, locks, finger pulls and handles are made equally. Keyless or keyed entry handles and locks are likely to be different than your interior ones, and not all sliding glass doors are designed to have keyed entry handles.
The quality of your door, handle and lock matters when it comes to security from intruders and severe weather. This isn’t the time to opt for a chincy installation; choose quality materials with high-quality finishes that won’t easily wear from frequent use.
