September is National Preparedness Month. Most people think that means flashlights and bottled water.
Here's what it actually means for your front door: when's the last time you tested your locks? Not looked at them. Tested them.
A stuck deadbolt during a fire. A lost key during a storm evacuation. A lock that hasn't been serviced since you moved in. These are the security gaps nobody thinks about until they're standing outside their own house in an emergency.
Preparedness isn't just a kit in your closet. It's knowing every lock in your home actually works when it has to.
Honestly, when's the last time you checked yours? Reply below and we'll tell you what to look for.
