MTL800

The MTL800 lock offers incredible protection against intruders. It complies with international standards for locks and offers significant protection against:

• Lockpicking: the most common method thieves use to gain access to a building or unit
• Drilling: a more aggressive tool for breaking locks. MTL800 locks resist drilling effectively
• Bumping: the intuitive cylinder system used by MTL800 locks is resilient to bumping

This locking system works with complex master key systems and enables the user to create exclusive keyways that help to prevent interference. It can be integrated with a wide range of security systems, from doors to safes, and is one of the leading security measures employed by homeowners and businesses.

It is also fully backward compatible with other MTL solutions, meaning that it's an affordable and effective upgrade for users looking to increase their security without having to spend heavily on an entirely new security system.

The lock uses a patented moving element on the key's blade as part of a double alpha spring system, providing additional protection. This works alongside a pin in the lock to offer an extra shearling, meaning that the lock's identity is unique to the keyholder and makes it extremely difficult to crack.

The MTL800 lock also comes with a keycard that must be presented and scanned for a copy of the key to be made. This is yet another incredible security device to ensure that nothing can compromise this security system.

MTL600

The MTL600 system employs several mechanisms to ensure a high level of security:

• Tumbler mechanism featuring 10 telescopic pins: this system makes it almost impossible for lockpickers to crack the device. 10 telescopic pins provide a robust defense against malicious parties.
• Unique oval pin to prevent tampering: the unique oval design of these pins confounds lockpickers by offering a defense that they're unable to penetrate. Tampering is incredibly difficult with MTL600 locks.
• Patented floating element to prevent interference: as with the MTL800, the MTL600 uses a patented floating element that resists even the most sophisticated attempts to crack the lock. This is a core component of MTL locks and is a major reason for their legendary resilience.

The MTL600 security system provides a keycard that is necessary if you wish to obtain a duplicate key. This is a primary defense against malicious individuals looking for an easy way to break a lock. A malicious party would have to obtain two keys rather than one, making cracking efforts unsustainable.

This system also helps you control the number of keys in existence when you run a business, which means that you can easily identify which key has been compromised in the event of a breach.

MTL400

MTL400 systems offer additional protection with their telescopic pinning. MTL400 locks are designed to resist drilling, bumping, and lockpicking attempts. However, its sturdy pins are specially designed to resist drilling attempts.
MTL400 locks are an excellent option for homeowners looking for an additional layer of security. Anyone looking to copy a key has to visit an Mul-T-Lock-approved key vendor and present the bespoke card that is necessary for copying a key. They also benefit from the MTL master key system, allowing you to control which rooms are accessible to predetermined keyholders.
