Frequently Asked Questions Q: Are CAL Locks easy to install? A: Yes! EASY TO INSTALL. Simply drill 6 or 7 holes, insert 6 or 7 screws and that's it! Q: Will the CAL Lock be able to prevent my sliders from being lifted out of their tracks? A: Yes! ABSOLUTE SECURITY. A metal piece on the lock slides under the immovable latch to prevent ANY lifting. Q: Will the CAL Lock prevent my doors from being slid open? A: Yes! Remember: ABSOLUTE SECURITY. Once the sliding glass door is closed, two (2) steel bolts prevent the door from moving at all!! Q: Are CAL Locks made from strong (I mean REALLY STRONG) metals? A: Yes! CAL Locks are made mostly from caste aluminum and steel. The nylon parts improve appearance and help parts move smoothly and securely. The steel locks are very similar to the locks on your front-door deadbolt but are smaller and, of course, there are two of them. One bolt secures the "latch" to the lock from the bottom and the other comes down from the top. Q: What is a "latch"? A: The latch is the key to the whole system. It is attached to the frame of the door opening. It secures directly to your house with long screws which are provided. It then becomes a part to your house and does not move. When the lock is secured to the latch with steel bolts, your door cannot be lifted or slid open. Q: Are CAL Locks exposed to the outside like my current lock? A: No! There is no part of the CAL Lock accessible from the outside, unlike your "old" lock. This prevents burglars from studying the lock and learning where to drill to unlock your door. Your current lock may as well have a sign on it that reads, "Drill here to open!!" Q: Any hints to make installation easier? A: Yes. Before drilling holes, punch a small hole or indentation in the slippery metal with an awl or nail. This will prevent your drill bit from sliding during installation. Also, keep your drill bit moistened with oil to reduce wear. Q: What if I have questions? A: Call me. No secretaries, marketing people or sales staff to wander through. Just call John Allcorn, President of CAL America at 727-463-5975.
