Should you change your locks when you move into a new home?
You don't necessarily need new locks.
In many cases, your existing locks can simply be rekeyed so the old keys no longer work.
The bigger issue is that you usually don't know how many copies of the old key are still out thereโfrom previous owners, tenants, contractors, cleaners, or anyone else who was given one.
Rekeying keeps your existing hardware but gives you a fresh set of keys and makes the old ones useless.
๐ New house. New keys. Same locks.
