I've heard Medeco is no longer king of the hill when it comes to consumer high-security locks.

Depends on what exactly your looking for it to be tough against. Drilling, picking, beating, etc.
all of the above.
Lever, Knob, Deadbolt????????
Knob and Deadbolt.
commercial door AND frame, NO close glass to the door and I believe its called a "FOX LOCK" ???
keyhole in middle of the door.. then watch the key you use..

I agree completely. I can't even begin to tell you how frustrated I get when I have a customer tell me they want a high dollar lockset on a residential door and frame that secures their network server. I explain the "weakest link" theory and they just don't get it. They think that I can safely secure their precious possessions with 8 feet of thin glass and a wooden door that's no thicker that a cardboard box. I actually put one on the other day and my lock caused the door/frame to sag immediately, forcing me to readjust the strike plate.
