When a door and lock are installed in a doorframe for the first time, they will be straight and aligned if the installation was done correctly. The bolt of the lock will go into the strike plate of the frame without any problems.

 

However, the alignment of the bolt and strike plate does not stay the same forever. The weight of the door will cause a shift in the alignment at some point in the future. You’ll notice when the door starts to become misaligned because the bolt will no longer latch in the strike plate after closing the door. Then you won’t be able to keep the door closed or locked.

The best solution in these situations is to adjust the lock and align the bolt with the strike plate again. Just make sure you don’t attempt the adjustment yourself because you could put your property’s security at even greater risk. Instead, hire a professional locksmithing company to do the lock adjustment job for you.

How do you know when it’s a good idea to contact a locksmith for lock changes? Well, there are many situations when you should think about having your locks changed. Here are some examples of when you should be contacting the professionals at SMS Locksmiths right away for lock changes.


Moving Into a New Home

There are few things more exciting than moving into a new home, townhome, apartment, or condo. Getting the “new-to-you” keys signifies the completion of a life-changing event. Most people get settled in and comfortable in their new space without considering what might happen if they don’t change their locks.


When you do have a moment to think about how many people may have a copy of the key to your home, it’s frightening. The previous homeowners could have a key, and the people they bought the home from may even still have a key if the locks were never changed. The real estate agent who brokered the deal might still have a key. What about friends or extended family of the previous owners who were given a copy of the key?


The best thing you can do is to contact SMS Locksmiths to update your locks to the safest and most secure to protect what matters most in your life. A fresh start in a fresh home deserves a set of fresh keys.


Losing Your Keys

There are very few people who have never completed a frantic search to find keys that have been misplaced. Many lucky searchers have recovered their keys in the end, but what about the ones who never found them again?


SMS Locksmiths can get you back on track with quick lock changes and a new set of keys. And once your home is safe and secure, consider making a designated space for your keys and get in the habit of always depositing them there.


Break-Ins

Having someone break into a neighbor’s house is scary. When someone breaks into your home, the fear that grows from the experience can be crippling.


Having the locks changed after a break in either the neighborhood or your home can give you peace of mind and an added sense of security. SMS Locksmiths are there to make sure you get what you need for an increased sense of security.


Out With the Old

People come and go in our lives and some of them leave with copies of your keys. Whether it’s a roommate or former spouse that leaves the home, they are likely to hang onto your key—and may even have had copies made.


Even if the person who moved out is still a good friend, it’s always a smart idea to get lock changes for your home. SMS Locksmiths can get you set to avoid any unwanted guests from barging in anytime.


Conclusion

Lock changes aren’t only considered unless a person finds themselves in a dangerous situation. After all, your locks are the barrier that keeps anything undesirable in the outside world from getting in. To prevent any future disturbances or violations of your personal space, SMS Locksmiths are there to help you feel safe and secure.



Lock changes are the best way to guarantee the security of your building. They can keep out former inhabitants of your building who may have a key and deter burglars from trying to get inside.
