Do You Know Who Has The Keys To Your Home?
Most homeowners cannot fully answer that question. Previous owners, their contractors, family members, housesitters, and former roommates may all have copies of keys that were never returned. Keys get copied and distributed over the years in ways that are easy to lose track of.
Rekeying your locks changes the internal pins so that every previously cut key stops working. Your existing hardware stays in place, new keys are issued, and you have complete control over who can get in. It is one of the most effective security steps you can take, and one of the least expensive.
With digital locks, access becomes simple and keyless, reducing the need for a residential lockout service when you lose or break a key. Enjoy peace of mind with top notch, secure, modern solutions for your home

10 Simple Steps to Safeguard Your Home
Protecting your home starts with simple yet effective steps that reduce the risk of burglary and enhance your security. These 10 practical tips focus on improving your locks, securing entry points, and using smart strategies to safeguard your property.
- Install a Night Watch deadbolt — the only deadbolt that prevents an intruder from entering your home, even if they have your key — on every entry door.
- Don’t hide spare keys outside of your home — experienced burglars will know where to look for them. Instead, consider using locking key storage products as a secure, alternative solution.
- Eliminate easy entry points by keeping entry doors, windows and the garage door closed and locked while at home or away. To secure sliding doors, invest in a security bar that will prevent against unauthorized entry.
- Avoid including personal information on your answering machine message, and never indicate that you are out–of–town or away from the home for an extended period. For added security, women who live alone may ask a male friend to record their outgoing message.
- Trim overgrown shrubs to below window level height so neighbors can see any suspicious activity that might take place. Overgrown shrubbery gives burglars a hiding place, especially when bushes or plants are growing in front of ground–level windows.
- Show activity in your home while on vacation. Keep a car in the driveway, and keep lights on a timer. Cancel your mail and newspaper delivery and give your lawn one last trim, or ask a neighbor to do it for you while you’re gone.
- Consider fitting Venetian blinds to ground-level windows. They help block views into your home during the day. Burglars dislike them because they’re hard to bypass and can be noisy.
- Be wary of leaving empty gift boxes outside for trash collection — they may alert burglars to the expensive, new purchase that’s inside your home.
- Use window and door alarms. Alarms range from basic noise-making devices to silent ones that alert the police. Most burglars flee when any alarm goes off. Even a simple alarm can provide peace of mind.
- Keep the perimeter of your home well lit. Installing low voltage outdoor lighting is a cost-effective way to discourage intruders.
