What is a Lock Change?
A lock change is replacing the existing locks on your home with new ones, ensuring that no one but you has access to your property.
It is essential for new homeowners who may not know how many people—previous owners, real estate agents, contractors, and others—could potentially have keys to their old locks.
By changing the locks, you ultimately control who can enter your home, ensuring your property is safe and secure.
Why a Lock Change is Essential
A lock change is essential for different reasons:
Security and Peace of Mind
Security should be one of your top priorities when moving into a new home.
Changing your locks is the first step toward securing your space.
You simply cannot be sure who still has the keys to your old locks.
Previous homeowners, neighbours, real estate agents, or even contractors who worked on the property may still have access.
By replacing your locks, you regain control over who can enter your home, providing much-needed peace of mind.
Prevent Unauthorized Access
Lock changes are vital in eliminating the risk of unauthorized access.
This process ensures that only you, the new homeowner, have keys to your home.
No more worrying about someone else unexpectedly showing up with a key they shouldn’t have.
By taking this simple step, you remove any uncertainty regarding who has access to your property.
Customizable Security
Beyond just replacing old locks, a lock change offers you the opportunity to upgrade your security.
Whether you’re looking for something more robust or advanced, changing your locks allows you to install a system that better suits your security needs.
You can choose high-security locks, smart locks, or keyless entry systems that match your lifestyle and safety concerns.

When to Consider a Lock Change:
Immediately After Moving In
The best time to change your locks is right after you move into a new home.
It ensures that any previously distributed keys are made ineffective.
It’s a small investment that pays off significantly in terms of your security and peace of mind.
If Keys Have Been Lost or Stolen
If your keys are lost or stolen, it’s crucial to change your locks as soon as possible.
You never know whose hands your keys could have fallen into.
Even if you suspect they may be misplaced within your home, there’s no reason to take a chance. A lock replacement reduces the chance of unauthorized access.
Upgrading Security
Sometimes, a lock change is about more than just replacing lost or compromised keys.

This step ensures that the latest and most secure technology protects your property.
