Abstract
A deadbolt system securing an access point includes a deadbolt and a deadbolt sensor configured to characterize the performance of the deadbolt. The deadbolt system generates a resistance signature when the deadbolt is moved between a retracted and extended position which is comparable to a threshold or a previously recorded resistance signature. The comparison may determine the presence of one or more performance inhibitors which may be conveyed to an operator through a local or remote indicator.
