Your home’s safety relies on the locks

 

Purchasing a new home is exciting. Being able to call a house “yours” is a great feeling, and people work for years to be able to achieve this goal. When moving into a new home people are quick to make changes to the appearance of the home, and work diligently to turn it into a space that they feel comfortable living in. Too often, however, people forget to handle one important issue when moving into a new home: replacing the locks. At Redlands Lock & Key, we want all of our Redlands residents to feel safe and secure in their new home. Below we have listed a few reasons why changing your new home’s locks should be a top priority.

 

Replacing your locks ensures a secure home

 

When moving into a new home, safety should be a primary concern. Chances are you are not the first person to live in the house you just purchased, and, as a result, you cannot assume that all keys to your home are in your possession. Perhaps the previous residents loaned a key out to a housekeeper, babysitter, or close friends. While these individuals almost certainly don’t want to enter your home without your knowledge, it never hurts to be safe.

 

Choose the locks that you want

 

Different locks serve different functions, and as a homeowner it is important that you choose the locks that make you feel safe. At Redlands Lock & Key we suggest that all doors leading outside are equipped with deadbolt locks to provide extra security. Deadbolts are much more difficult to bypass than standard locks, and are a great deterrent to potential break-ins. If you are more technologically minded, electronic locks could be a great option for your home. These locks allow you to enter a code or use an access card to gain entrance into your home. Whatever style of lock you choose, it is important that they fit your style and security needs.
