When to Replace Your Locks

If you have been thinking about your home or business security, you might be wondering if your locks are in good condition. If they are not, you may need to replace them. There are plenty of reasons to have our locksmiths at Fast Locksmith Littleton in Littleton, CO. Not everyone is as safe as they can be and this might be due to the condition of their locks. We want everyone in Littleton to be safe and they can if they know when they should have their locks changed. Here are the reasons for having you locks changed.

You Had a Break-in – When your property has been burglarized, you should definitely have the locks changed. While you might not think this is worth mentioning because you assume it is basic common sense, we assure you that there are some people who think different. They reason that if a thief has already broken in, they likely won’t come back again. This is the furthest from the truth. If the burglar found it easy to break into your home, they may come back again to get more things. It may not be the next day but they may come back again and you shouldn’t take this chance. The thief may have found a key and had a spare made. This is a chance that you shouldn’t take and you don’t have to as long as you rely on our locksmiths.

Lost or Stolen keys – This is another one that would seem like common sense but we assure you that once again a person would reason that all they need to do is have another key made because the thief doesn’t know where you live. You can’t make this assumption. Perhaps it is someone who has been following you and simply waiting for the chance to steal your keys so that they can break-into your home while you are away. This would be a good time to have your keys replaced, when they have been lost or stolen.

A worn lock – If you have weak and worn locks it is much easier for a burglar to break into your home. When you have weak locks, there is a chance that your key might stick. If you’re coming home late from work or somewhere else, this can be especially unnerving and frustrating. The minute you notice you have worn locks, give us a call and let us change the locks for you so that you can avoid a break-in.

After contractors leave - If there has been contractors in and out of your home, you can’t take chances of them returning when you least expect it. Maybe they were only in your home for 1 day. This is still enough time for them to have copied your keys. Don’t take unnecessary chances. Make sure you do yourself a favor and have your locks changed immediately after contractors have completed their work.

After moving into a new home – When you move into a new home, you can’t be sure about who might have another set of keys and can come in whenever they like. It is the responsibility of the previous owner, who sold you the house, to have the locks changed.

After a divorce – Even if you have ended your marriage on a good note, you should still have your locks changed. They may have given the keys to someone else and you simply can’t be sure, as to whether or not they will come back and take things that are not theirs. It is in your best interest to have the locks of your home changed.

Your tenant is moving out – If you own a property and your tenant is about to move out, you must have the locks changed. If you do not wish to be liable for burglary of your next tenant, it is important that you have the locks changed as soon as the tenant moves out.
