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 While rekeying works in many situations, worn, damaged, outdated, or tampered locks require full replacement to ensure safety and compliance.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 An eviction is also the perfect time to upgrade weak or outdated lock systems, standardize mismatched hardware, or update a master key system.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.

This is essential for multi-unit and multi-suite buildings.

Our Eviction Lock Change Process

Our process is fast, efficient, and coordinated with local sheriff departments to ensure legal compliance.

STEP 1 — Sheriff Completes the Eviction

We wait until the sheriff gives the official authorization before touching any locks or doors.

STEP 2 — We Inspect All Locks

We review:

  • Condition of each lock

  • Type of hardware

  • Any signs of tampering

  • Tenant-installed locks

  • Security weaknesses

This inspection helps us determine the best replacement strategy.

STEP 3 — Lock Removal

We remove the existing lock hardware from the door. If the lock is damaged or altered, we carefully remove it without harming the door structure.

STEP 4 — Hardware Installation

We install brand-new hardware, ensuring:

  • Proper fit

  • Smooth operation

  • Correct alignment

  • Secure bolt engagement

We use only reliable lock brands such as Schlage, Kwikset, Yale, Medeco, Sargent, and Best Access Systems.

STEP 5 — Provide New Keys

After installation, we supply new keys to the property owner. Former tenants’ keys will no longer work.

STEP 6 — Secure All Entry Points

We check:

  • Front doors

  • Back doors

  • Side doors

  • Garage entries

  • Basement access

  • Office or storage doors (for commercial spaces)

Every entrance must be secured to fully protect the property.
