Working Well with Others

A “one size fits all” approach is rarely successful in this business, but it’s not often you come across a security provider that can handle custom solutions as well as Bill’s Mobile Lock. Whether it’s enhancing a current system or installing a new one, we have the expertise to use the best available products—even if they’re from different manufacturers—to create a comprehensive protection system that will meet your specific needs.

That allows us to use technology we can trust from past experiences, even in a new scenario. Take the ProxPro 5355: It can be used to provide controlled, card-reader access to a variety of secure areas, and we know it to be durable, reliable and efficient. What’s more important is the fact that we know how to integrate it into a wide range of security systems so a wide range of our customers can enjoy those benefits.

Wireless Security—Without a Monitoring Contract

If you’ve ever called one of those security companies you see on TV offering low-cost alarm systems, you already know the truth: Just like with “free” cellphones, those ads don’t mention the fact that, when you add it all up, you’re on the line for more than $1,000 per year for service—with added fees if you try to break your contract. But Bill’s Mobile Lock has an ideal solution: Wireless alarm systems from STI that provide you with premium security, without a monthly contract for service fees. Using STI components, I can set up your home with a comprehensive monitoring system that includes solutions like motion-detection sensors, driveway sensors that indicate when someone pulls up to your home, and an auto-dialer that can be programmed to call up to eight different phone numbers if the security system is triggered, or by using a handy “panic button” remote. That puts you in control of your home’s security. For more information on STI’s no-contract alarm systems—or any topic having to do with security for your home or business—contact Bill’s Mobile Lock at 734-421-1230 or visit us online at: www.billsmobilelock.net

A New Trend: Cam Locks in Cabinets

We’ve been getting more and more calls from people who just want basic locks added to pre-existing wooden cabinets, and it’s become obvious that what should be a simple job isn’t—at least for inattentive locksmiths. That’s because even though actually installing the hardware for the typical cam-style cabinet lock is fairly easy, paying attention to the details can be tough. After all, most of these jobs require the cabinets to be disassembled, and if your locksmith isn’t paying attention, the results can appear quite shoddy when everything is put back together. Of course, things are different here at Bill’s Mobile Lock. We take the time to do the job properly, both on site and back at the shop, and painstakingly work to ensure everything looks—and works—the way it’s supposed to when we’re done. And if you ever need further service, we’re just a phone call away. Need more information? Just call us at 734-421-1230 or visit online at: www.billsmobilelock.net

Setting a Safe Course with SCIFs

Another advantage of contacting Bill’s Mobile Lock? Not only can we provide expert locksmithing and security service for all of your everyday needs, but we also can handle specialized security applications—like the government’s Sensitive Compartmented Information Facilities (SCIFs).

These rooms are used for the storage of classified documents in certain situations, and are required by law to use combination locks to secure those materials. However, instead of using, for example, safes with combination locks, demand arose for a security solution that would both meet the government’s requirements and be usable on room doors—which can never be safely secured with a traditional combination lock. After all, it would be too easy for someone to be trapped inside.

Leave it to a company called “Lockmasters” to introduce the first lock in the industry specifically designed for exactly this application. And leave it to Bill’s Mobile Lock to be able to handle even this unique security need.

Electric Strikes Get Back in the Game

Even though current security solutions are often on the cutting edge of technology, a decades-old solution is making an unexpected comeback: Electric strikes—the hardware behind the "buzzers" often used in older apartment buildings—may rely on a simple system using electromagnets and spring gates, but they actually have some notable advantages compared to alternatives like today's maglocks or electrified hardware, including, in some situations, both security and cost benefits.

And this kind of knowledge shows one of the benefits of working with Bill's Mobile Lock for your security needs: Sure, we know all about the newest security tech, but we also know that—depending on your needs—the newest solutions aren't always the best ones.

For more information about how Bill's Mobile Lock can custom tailor a security solution to meet your specific requirements, call us at 734-421-1230 or visit online at:

Intercom Security for the 21st Century

As high technology continues to revolutionize security measures, one of the biggest changes has been to door-security intercom systems. Older systems often failed to provide much in the way of security at all; for example, having a bad guy gain access to an apartment building after pressing all the buttons on the intercom security panel wasn’t just a movie cliché—it was an accurate portrayal of a very common, real-life flaw in low-tech applications.

But today, thanks to companies like Viking Electronics, advanced telephone-style setups can provide robust security measures that include voice and visual communications links to whoever is in charge of granting access, and this includes links to off-site phones, too. Plus, many phone systems also can act as keypad systems that can grant access based on pre-programmed security codes.

The Viking advantage comes into play because the company offers innovations such as special software that changes systems from one mode to the other with a minimum of fuss—which is why Bill’s MobileLock in turn offers plenty of intercom-style security solutions, for both residential and commercial settings, from Viking.
