When Should You Change Your Locks?
There are many situations where changing your locks is the smart choice for your home security. Here are the most common reasons homeowners call us.
Professional Lock Change Service in Raleigh
Your home's locks are your first line of defense against intruders. Over time, locks can become worn, outdated, or compromised. Whether you're moving into a new home, recovering from a security incident, or simply want better protection, LightSpeed Locksmith provides professional lock change services throughout Raleigh and the Triangle.
Why Change Your Locks?
When you purchase a home, you have no way of knowing how many key copies exist. Previous owners, real estate agents, contractors, cleaning services, neighbors, and family members may all have copies. Changing your locks immediately after moving in ensures that you control access to your home. Similarly, if you've ever lost your keys, had them stolen, or ended a relationship with someone who had a key, changing your locks restores your security.
Lock Change vs. Rekeying
Rekeying changes the internal pins in your existing lock so old keys no longer work, while lock changing replaces the entire lock hardware. Rekeying is less expensive and works well when your locks are in good condition. However, if your locks are old, worn, low-quality, or you want to upgrade to higher security features, replacing them entirely is the better choice. We can assess your current locks and recommend the best option for your situation.
Quality Lock Brands We Install
We install quality lock brands that provide genuine security rather than just the appearance of security. Brands like Schlage and Kwikset offer excellent protection for most residential needs, with various style options to match your home. For those wanting maximum security, we install high-security options from Medeco that feature pick-resistant cylinders and patent-protected keys that cannot be duplicated without authorization.
Keyed Alike Service
Tired of carrying multiple keys for different doors? We can set up all your new locks to work with a single key - a service called "keyed alike." This means one key opens your front door, back door, side door, and garage entry door. It's convenient for you and your family while still providing individual locks on each door.
Smart Lock Upgrades
If you're considering smart locks, a lock change is the perfect time to upgrade. Smart locks offer keyless entry via codes, smartphone apps, or fingerprints. They provide features like temporary access codes for guests, activity logs showing who entered when, and remote locking capabilities. We install and program smart locks from Yale, Schlage, Kwikset, and other quality brands.
