PATENTED KEY CONTROL. MAXIMUM PROTECTION.

Industry-Leading Protection for Homes, Businesses & Institutions
Mul-T-Lock is a globally recognized manufacturer of high-security locking solutions, trusted by governments, financial institutions, and security-conscious property owners around the world. Unlike standard pin-tumbler locks found at hardware stores, Mul-T-Lock cylinders use a patented telescopic pin-in-pin design that makes them virtually impossible to pick, bump, or drill. Every Mul-T-Lock key is protected by patent — meaning keys can only be duplicated at authorized dealers like Safe & Secure Locksmith with proper identification and a key authorization card.
For over three decades, Safe & Secure Locksmith has been Metro Vancouver's go-to source for Mul-T-Lock products. From our shop at 4105 Macdonald Street in Vancouver, we supply, install, rekey, and service every Mul-T-Lock system — from single residential deadbolts to building-wide master key systems protecting hundreds of doors. Whether you're a homeowner upgrading from a basic Kwikset, a property manager securing a strata complex, or a business owner protecting sensitive assets, we'll design a Mul-T-Lock solution that fits your security requirements and budget.
We carry the three primary Mul-T-Lock product lines: the Interactive+ platform (the most widely deployed high-security cylinder), the MT5+ system (the flagship with the highest security rating), and the Lock 500 Series (multi-point rim locks for maximum door-frame protection). Each is detailed below with specifications, applications, and pricing guidance.
Keys cannot be copied at any hardware store. Only authorized Mul-T-Lock dealers can duplicate keys with proper ID and key card verification.
Telescopic pin-in-pin technology, anti-drill pins, and hardened steel inserts defeat all common lock-attack methods.
Used by governments, banks, hospitals, and military installations in over 100 countries. UL 437 and CEN Grade 6 certified.
Our licensed technicians are factory-trained on every Mul-T-Lock product. Correct installation is critical to high-security performance.
The Mul-T-Lock Interactive+ is the platform that put Mul-T-Lock on the map. It combines the proven telescopic pin-in-pin mechanism with a floating element inside the key that communicates with the cylinder — adding a layer of authentication that cannot be duplicated by conventional key-cutting machines. This is the system most commonly installed in Metro Vancouver residential and commercial properties.
The Interactive+ is available in deadbolt, knob, lever, padlock, and mortise configurations, making it suitable for virtually any door type. It's the ideal upgrade for homeowners moving beyond standard Schlage or Kwikset locks, and for property managers who need strict key control across multiple units without the cost of a full electronic access system.
At Safe & Secure Locksmith, Interactive+ is our most-requested Mul-T-Lock product. We stock the most common cylinder sizes and can order specialty configurations within 5–7 business days. Every installation includes programming your key authorization card and registering your lock with our dealership for future key duplication.
The MT5+ represents the pinnacle of Mul-T-Lock's engineering. Building on the proven Interactive+ platform, the MT5+ adds a second authentication element — a sidebar with precisely machined finger pins that must align with the cylinder for the key to turn. This dual-authentication approach (telescopic pins + sidebar) creates a lock that meets the most stringent security certifications in the world, including UL 437 and CEN Grade 6.
The MT5+ is the system of choice for high-value commercial properties, government buildings, financial institutions, cannabis facilities, data centres, and any environment where security cannot be compromised. In the residential market, the MT5+ appeals to homeowners who want the absolute best — particularly those in high-value properties or anyone who has experienced a break-in and wants maximum peace of mind.
Every MT5+ key blank features a unique code that is registered to the lock owner. Duplicating an MT5+ key requires presenting the authorization card at an authorized Mul-T-Lock dealership. The key blanks themselves are controlled inventory — they cannot be purchased by non-dealers, making unauthorized duplication essentially impossible. Safe & Secure Locksmith maintains a full inventory of MT5+ cylinders and can configure master key systems of any complexity.
The Mul-T-Lock Lock 500 Series takes a fundamentally different approach to door security. Instead of securing the door at a single point (like a standard deadbolt), the Lock 500 engages the door frame at multiple points simultaneously when locked. This multi-point locking technology distributes force across the entire door edge, making forced entry through kicking, prying, or shouldering dramatically more difficult.
The 500 Series is a rim-mounted lock system, meaning it installs on the interior surface of the door. This makes it an excellent retrofit solution — you don't need to replace your door or modify the frame extensively. The lock features a sleek, modern design available in multiple finishes (satin nickel, oil-rubbed bronze, polished chrome) that complements contemporary and traditional door hardware alike.
This system is particularly popular for reinforcing apartment and condo entry doors, commercial storefronts, office suites, and any door that needs physical reinforcement beyond what a standard deadbolt provides. In Vancouver's older walk-up apartments and heritage buildings, the 500 Series is often the most practical way to dramatically improve door security without structural modifications. We regularly install these in Kitsilano character homes, West End apartment buildings, and Commercial Drive storefronts.
