New Home? Rekey Your Locks – Just to be Safe

Have you recently moved into a new house? Now is the perfect time to get a locksmith to rekey locks in your new home. There are many reasons it is important to think about changing locks in your new home to keep you and your family safe from unwanted intruders and break-ins. Here at Armstrong Security, we have a large network of licensed locksmiths to rekey locks and specialise in finding the best solution for you and your home. This article will discuss a few reasons why it is important to rekey locks in your new home.

You don’t know who has access

Unless you have bought a freshly built home, you don’t know who might have a copy of the keys to your house. The previous owners may have accidentally kept a copy of the keys to your new place, but it’s not only them as they may have given copies to their friends and family in the past too.

We all give people access to our homes without thinking. Neighbours, friends, and other trusted people of the previous owners may have been given a key to your new home in the past to help out with things like feeding pets, babysitting, or house-sitting while away on holiday. All of these people create the potential for your new home to be broken into and mean you don’t know who has access to your new home.

Sometimes we lose keys too

It is also possible that the previous owners may have lost a set of keys without even realising it. A lost set of keys could mean access to your new home could be out there for anyone to stumble across. To ensure home security and your peace of mind, it’s important only you and people you trust could possibly have access to your house. This is why it is important to think about getting a locksmith to rekey locks in your new home.

Rekey out-of-date locks

Another reason to rekey locks is if the current locks are old and out of date. Older locks have fewer pins than modern locks, which makes the locks easier to pick and break into your new home. When you get an Armstrong Security locksmith to rekey your locks, we could add additional pins to the existing lock, making them harder to pick and providing you with improved home security and peace of mind.

Rekey locks to stay safe

Rekeying is a cheap and easy way to ensure only you and the people you trust have access to your new home. Armstrong Security is a great choice for rekeying or changing locks in your new home, with a large network of licensed and experienced locksmiths.
