Smart home security devices are the backbone of IoT, and these products get more popular every year. Smart cameras, doorbells, and alarms are indeed useful at notifying you of suspicious movement and unrecognized faces on your property. But, for most of these devices, that’s where their usefulness ends; they can’t actually stop a determined intruder from breaking into your home. At the end of the day, you still need a strong door to protect you and your belongings. And that’s where the NIGHTLOCK Original door brace comes in. This sturdy door brace lock acts as a barricade for your door and looks pretty nice, too.

The NIGHTLOCK Original door brace is a tough piece of solid aluminum. It looks like a metal brace, and that’s exactly what it is; a brace that attaches to the bottom of your door and keeps it locked, even if an intruder manages to bust the lock and deadbolt off the door frame. But, while this heavy-duty home security accessory does a no-nonsense job, it comes in a range of color options to match your home’s decor. Overall, this is a gadget that can increase your home’s safety and make it harder for thieves to break in.

How does this security lock work?

When the NIGHTLOCK Original door brace is in the locked position, it keeps your door closed, even against tremendous force. When you unlock it, your door swings easily over the plate, just as it normally does. You can visit the company’s website for more information about this product’s strength test results.

What are the dimensions of this home security gadget?

This door brace lock is 9.5 inches long by 3.125 inches high while the floor plate portion is 9.5 inches long by 2.5 inches wide. Therefore, it’s a pretty compact home security gadget. It comes with 2-inch long matching screws and plastic anchors for marble, ceramic tile, or concrete floors. Another good measurement to keep in mind for this product is that it requires a 0.5-inch clearance from your floor to the bottom of your door. This space allows the NIGHTLOCK Originaldoor brace to fit on your door.

What is this door brace made of?

This door brace lock is made of solid extruded 6,000 series structural Aluminum, which is a strong alloy containing added manganese and silicon. When combined, these elements allow the alloy to be heat-treated, which improves the material’s strength even further. So this home security lock is strong right down to its base material. That’s something that makes any homeowner feel more protected.

Is this home security lock easy to install?

Yes. While the exact tools and methods you use depend on your floor’s material, the basic idea is the same. To start, set the NIGHTLOCK Original door brace against the floor as close to the door as possible without touching it. Then, use the Floor Plate as a template for drilling 0.75-inch pilot holes. Finally, fasten the Floor Plate to the floor with three screws. The door should open freely above the floor plate. That’s it. And you get to use a power drill to make those holes.

So no matter your home’s decor, one of these lovely metallic shades will match.
