Best Practices When Rekeying a Newly Built HomeJune 27, 2018

Moving into a newly constructed home can be an exciting prospect. There is something unique and special about being the first people to inhabit a home. With that being said, there are some key privacy and security aspects that routinely get overlooked -- even in a newly constructed home! Here at Altona Locksmiths, we believe in providing our customers with all of the information that they need in order to stay safe and secure in their new home. Today, the focus of our discussion will be on rekeying your newly constructed home.

Rekeying Your Newly Built Home: Best Practices & Methods

Home security is a subject that is bound to come up when you move into your new home. Whether your house is equipped with top of the line security measures, or simply equipped with strong locks on the doors, you want to make sure that your system is functioning and private. What do we mean by this? Well, during the construction phase your construction team had access to the locks on your door. While the vast majority of construction crews are trustworthy, wouldn't it make you feel better to know that your home could only be accessed by keys that you personally saw created? Thus enters the concept of rekeying your locks.

1) What is rekeying?

To put it simply, to rekey your locks all you are doing is modifying the locking mechanism within the locks on your doors. Rather than replacing the entire device, you are allowing a trained locksmith to manipulate the tumblers inside of the device. This allows you to make new keys corresponding to these new tumblers.

2) Why consider rekeying your home?

When moving into a new building, safety and security should be of the utmost priority. By rekeying all of the locks on your home through a reputable locksmith, such as our professional team at Alton Locksmiths, you are taking control of your security. We can help you to make expertly crafted, secure keys for your new home.

3) What are the best practices during the rekeying process?

Well, the best thing you can do is reach out to a certified locksmith, like us. We'll manually modify each lock in your newly built home so that you can step away with a brand new set of keys.
