Why you should change your locks

Door locks provide you with a protective layer of security for those inside your home or other building. While it would be nice to live in a world where locks are not needed, that simply is not reality. Having quality locks on doors is important to assure the safety of both people and property. Here are some good reasons why you should replace your existing locks…

Outdated technology
As with many other devices, door knobs, deadbolts and other locks get better over time. As thieves discover ways to pick existing locks, lock manufacturers create new technology to prevent it. In order to have the best security locks possible, home and other building owners need to update their locks from time to time. SIS –Security &Investigation Services can also provide additional security services to keep your home and business safe from thieves.

New Home
Whenever you move into a new home, it is important to have the locks changed. Though he or she may have received keys from a real estate agent or past occupant, there still may be other sets of keys in existence. In fact, there could even be forgotten emergency keys hidden outside of the home where someone may find later.

Lost Keys
If keys are ever lost, the locks should be changed. As there is no way of knowing where the keys are, or who may have them, it is best to change the locks to keep your home or business completely secure. Even if the keys are returned to you, a thieve may have copied the keys and can later gain entry to the property.



While locks will have many years of useful service, you still need to replace them for these above reasons. 

For a professional home security system and services, contact SIS - Security & Investigation Services. They can provide you with general guarding, farm protection and CCTV off site monitoring.
