The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) grading system was developed years ago to standardize a testing procedure to measure the durability and strength of a door lock. This grading system applies to both residential and commercial door locks. Composed of three different grades, the ANSI grading system gives homeowners and business owners a good idea of lock quality and reliability. ANSI examines six different qualities to determine a lock's grade:
These locks offer the highest level of security and are most often used by institutions like hospitals, schools, and even museums. These locks also have the highest life expectancy, though they can be much more complex and require an expert residential or commercial locksmith in cityname to install. In today's day and age, many more homeowners are opting for Grade 1 locks (like electronic locks) for the most peace of mind. This classification of lock must hold up against 800,000 cycles, six door strikes and a 360-pound weight test.
These locks are great for residential areas with more foot traffic, like a door that leads to an apartment complex or suite of rooms. These locks can also suffice for small businesses that need a higher level of security than Grade 3 locks. Use these locks when you want to secure access to areas with valuable equipment or sensitive documents. This classification of lock requires 400,000 cycles, four door strikes, and a 250-pound weight test.
This grade of lock is best suited for residential purposes and is considered standard door hardware. This kind of lock is the least expensive and should never be used in a high-traffic area like a lobby or storefront. However, these locks would be suitable for areas without much foot traffic like storage closets or areas without expensive merchandise. Because these locks are easiest to bypass, consider upgrading your Grade 3 locks with anti-bump and anti-pick technology. This classification of lock requires 200,000 lock cycles, two door strikes, and a 150-pound weight test.
A famous animator and movie director once said: "The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing."

The 24-hour dining options outside the perimeter are extremely limited, but Marietta Diner on Cobb Parkway near the Big Chicken has been the place for 24/7 OTP eating since 1995. The Greek diner includes an impressively large menu to satisfy any craving, and that includes around-the-clock breakfast dishes. Try the grilled cheese, gyros, patty melt, or any of the open-faced sandwiches. There’s also fried chicken and fried catfish.
Since 1998, Georgia Diner has been a go-to in Duluth for burgers, pancakes and waffles, club sandwiches, pasta, Greek food, and cakes by the slice at all hours. While the restaurant is no longer open for dining 24/7 (it closes at 11 p.m.), people can still order takeout and delivery from Georgia Diner any time of day or night. The kitchen never closes. Georgia Diner’s dining room and drive-thru window both open for service at 8 a.m. daily and close at 11 p.m.
The gourmet doughnut shop, owned by baker Kamal Grant, is open 24/7 for doughnuts, ice cream, and coffee at two locations: on the edge of the Georgia Tech campus on 10th Street, and another at Briarcliff Road. Flavors change frequently here, but expect doughnuts like s’mores, Nestle crunch, A-town mocha, salt and vinegar, and red velvet to be on the menu.
Even though the name suggests this restaurant is open 24 hours, it closes at 5 a.m. to restock for a few hours until 9 a.m. Head here for late-night cravings of all-you-can-eat Korean barbecue, ramen, and many other Korean comfort dishes, like beef bulgogi and kimchi fried rice, on Satellite Boulevard. Open daily from 9 a.m. to 5 a.m.
Who couldn’t use a comforting bowl of hot pho and a pot of tea at 1 a.m.? Pho 24 on Buford Highway is open nearly 24 hours a day for bowls of pho and banh mi sandwiches. The restaurant closes briefly in the early morning to make more pho broth and restock the menu for the day.
There’s an automated pizzeria where pepperoni and cheese pizzas are served in just three minutes by robotic arm 24/7 from a gas station in Buckhead. Called PizzaForno, each 10-inch pie costs between $10 and $13 and can be purchased hot or cold to bake at home. A piping hot box containing your pizza pops out of the machine a few minutes after ordering like money from an ATM. But how do these AI-baked pizzas taste? That’s a matter of opinion, and likely depends on the time of day you’re ordering, because at 3 a.m. after a night out on the town, does it really matter?
The Landmark Diner in Buckhead is “where the stars meet at night”. But, really, it’s where people meet up for late-night bites and coffee, especially following an evening of bar hopping or an event in town. Landmark is fashioned after the traditional northeastern diners with a large menu of breakfast, burgers, fried foods, and sandwiches. There’s also a 24/7 location on Luckie Street in downtown Atlanta.
Mama’s Cocina Latina on Piedmont Road in the Piedmont Heights neighborhood serves a mix of comfort foods and familiar Mexican dishes like tortas, tacos, burritos, and tostadas. Grab late-night hot wings, fajitas for one, two, or three people, or a grande dinner platter with two enchiladas, a taco, rice, and beans. The platter is hovers around $10. For breakfast, try the huevos rancheros or Mama’s breakfast with scrambled eggs, pancakes, and bacon. There’s also a drive-thru window open 24/7.
Metro Cafe Diner opened in downtown Atlanta’s Peachtree Center in 2006. This is where to head for breakfast fare, wings, classic burgers, and even baby back ribs and platters of spaghetti at any hour. Currently, the restaurant closes at 4 a.m. (5:30 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays) to restock and refresh the menu, before returning to all-day and all-night dining at 6 a.m. Hours are extended when conventions and larger crowd events are in town. Metro Cafe Diner also includes a location open late in Stone Mountain.
There’s not much more to say about this Atlanta-based restaurant institution. Atlantans know where to head for 24/7 smothered, covered, and scattered hash browns, waffles, and plenty of coffee paired with some seriously amazing people-watching, especially into the wee hours of the morning. Some locations are no longer open 24 hours. Check individual Waffle House locations for current hours.
Located in Forest Park next to a BP gas station, Las Tortas Ahogadas is where to head for tacos, flautas, chilaquiles, and burritos at any time of day. You can also order delivery from 11:30 a.m. to 11:30 p.m.

A water main break on Lawrence Street in Marietta has led to a boil water advisory for affected areas.
MARIETTA, Ga. — Marietta Water has issued a boil water advisory after a water main break on Lawrence Street near Covington Avenue caused portions of the water system to lose pressure on Friday night. Marietta officials said on Sunday that additional water main breaks also happened at Lakewood Drive and Parkview Drive but did not require a boil water advisory or pose a concern about water safety in the area.
As of Sunday afternoon, all water mains have been successfully repaired, but the boil water advisory is still in effect for the area around Lawrence Street and Covington Avenue.
The advisory applies to areas impacted by low water pressure or outages. Officials say the issue could lead to a potential health hazard due to backflow or back-siphonage of water of unknown quality into the system.
What you need to know:
How to boil water safely:
Officials added that broken water main lines could cause discolored water in the area where the break happened and in other areas of the system due to changes in the directional flow of water caused by the break.
"For customers outside of the Lawrence St. and Covington Ave. Boil Water Advisory mapped area, this is not a health concern but simply an aesthetic issue caused by the iron in the pipes and may take a couple of days to work itself out," the City of Marietta wrote in a social media post.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) notes that boiled or bottled water is not necessary for activities such as laundry or dishwashing, provided these are done correctly.
What happens next: The advisory will remain in effect until Marietta Water completes testing to confirm the water is safe to drink.
Updates will be posted on the City of Marietta’s Facebook page and website. Officials urge residents to stay informed and follow safety recommendations.

Atlanta Popcorn & Concession Supply, a new gourmet popcorn store at 146 Powers Ferry Road, Marietta, will celebrate its grand opening Tuesday, Jan. 21, at 3 p.m. with free popcorn, cotton candy and hot dogs.
Whether shoppers are looking for something classic, unique sweet or savory gifts for friends or corporate clients, or are in the market for equipment rental – including popcorn, cotton candy and snow cone machines – for events, festivals and parties, Atlanta Popcorn & Concession Supply aims to offer something for everyone throughout the metro area.
“Growing up as a second-generation in the concession business, popcorn has always been my passion,” said owner Kim Hallifax. “Since moving down South years ago, Atlanta has become my new home and I want to share my passion with the community. Popcorn brings people together and satisfaction is our guarantee.
“As a reputable and hard-working local female business owner,” Hallifax said, “together my dedicated food family and I would love the opportunity to deliver our customers a creative, tasty and unforgettable experience.”
“Kim and Atlanta Popcorn & Concessions have been a unique and fun addition to my marketing plan,” said luxury realtor Tisa Stafford. “Most recently I created small bags filled with their delicious gourmet popcorn thanking people for ‘popping by’ my open houses. ...They were a hit, to say the least!
“Next up,” Stafford continued, “are my mansion boxes filled with gourmet popcorn and flavored treats that I will be dropping off to past and present clients for National Popcorn Day,” which is Jan. 19.
For more information about Atlanta Popcorn & Concession Supply, call 470-900-1POP or email Kim@atlantapopcornsupply.com.
