This is the thinnest digital lock available. Very nice and premium look. And the backbody is fully metal too. Gateman A20 but also available in Yale, both out from the same oven.
Gateman: Interlocking Hook Locking
Yale: Straight bolt
Which is better? From a locksmith perspective, always, it will be interlocking.
But as with all Rim type locking, the strength depends very much on type of screws used, number of screws driven in and the proper installation method. With all these in place, it will be stronger than a descent deadbolt or common deadlock.
If you also thinking of getting one, make sure to check for the proper installation.
In our case, we can say it is strong. Steel screws, 7pcs properly driven and driven through the strike plate.
If simply installed, few kick or pry will be all it takes to break in.
