on today's video I'll be showing you how
to drill out a deadbolt there's many
different ways that you can draw out a
deadbolt this is usually helpful if for
some reason you lose your keys or
sometimes especially with these little
smart keys the pin will drop and your
key won't give you access into the unit
or your house so basically I already
drilled out one hole right here I just
wanted to show you whenever you're
drilling out a lock you want to do
what's easiest for you there's three
different methods that I've seen people
use some people like to drill right
through the lock itself
some people drill right on top of the
clip the key slot that's provided this
is where all the tumblers are going to
be so when you stick your key in the
tumblers have to match a lot of times
I'd like to just drill out the tumblers
but I like this method here because it's
just a clean method so basically I took
my drill and you can see right inside of
there I jeweled it right where the screw
ties into the deadbolt I'm gonna do the
same thing on this side if you look here
this is a deadbolt it's the same one
quick set if you see the only thing that
holds it up or these screws that go into
the threading provided on the frame if
it looks like this I can basically drill
through and get these screws loose then
that will allow me to pull off the front
and then just take a screwdriver and
open up the latch you can see right here
I've drilled it and you can see the
screw protruding from my marks and now
we're basically is just gonna drill just
enough so that we can kind of get these
screws loose at your time and be patient

this literally took less than a minute
and a half to do obviously you want to
make sure that when you buy your drill
bit that it is big enough to go right
through the size of the screw if this
