Lock and Key Safety

Imagine closing on your new home and you’re given only one key, frustrated now that you need to get copies quickly made. Even if you were given a dozen keys, you still need to have all the locks, including storage sheds, gates, and mail boxes, changed immediately. You have no idea how many spare keys are floating around. The maid, nanny, babysitter, neighbor, handyman, etc. all may still have extra keys to your new home.

For your safety, I recommend either having a locksmith change the keys on your locks or replacing the locks completely yourself. I also suggest changing the code on the garage door opener. This is a simple process–just consult the manual for exact directions.

For locksmith service in Albuquerque, I recommend Bill’s Lock and Key, 4200 Wyoming #C NE Albuquerque, (505)293-6555, or 9311 Coors NW #P-11 Albuquerque, (505)899-0407.
