A St. George locksmith and safe company providing lock installation, rekeying, repair and safe services.
Background
The weakest part of most residential entry doors is not the lock at all. When a door is forced, it usually fails at the strike plate, where the short screws supplied in the box reach only the thin jamb trim rather than the structural framing behind it. Replacing them with screws long enough to bite into the stud transfers the load from a strip of molding to the building frame, and it costs almost nothing. A high-grade deadbolt fastened into trim is a strong lock mounted to something weak, which is why hardware grade and installation depth are separate questions that both need answering.

What is the weakest point on a residential entry door?
Usually the strike plate. The short screws supplied with most locksets reach only the jamb trim, so replacing them with screws long enough to reach the structural stud transfers the load to the building frame. A high-grade deadbolt fixed into trim is still mounted to something weak.
