Why Lock Changes Are Critical After an Eviction?
Lock changes are essential after an eviction because former tenants may still have keys or have made unauthorized copies creating a major security risk. While rekeying works in many situations, worn, damaged, outdated, or tampered locks require full replacement to ensure safety and compliance. Evicted tenants often force locks, install their own hardware, or damage components during disputes, making new locks the only reliable solution. An eviction is also the perfect time to upgrade weak or outdated lock systems, standardize mismatched hardware, or update a master key system. Replacing the locks guarantees a fresh start and restores complete control of the property.
