When it is time to call
If a key is bending, a lock is loose, a frame has split, or you cannot account for every key, call before it becomes a lockout or a break-in. A small repair today is quicker and easier than an emergency later.

Rekey the day you move in
Nobody can tell you how many copies the previous owners, tenants or trades kept. A rekey makes every one of them useless and costs far less effort than new locks.
Anchor the strike into the stud
Strike plates usually sit on short screws that only grab the trim. Three-inch screws driven into the stud turn a kick that would split the frame into a sore foot.
Skip the hidden key
The mat, the fake rock and the top of the frame are the first places anyone checks. Give a spare to a neighbour you trust instead.
Give the patio door real protection
Sliding doors are often held by a tired latch. A bar in the track and a working patio lock stop the panel being lifted or slid open.
Deal with a stiff lock before winter
Freeze-thaw cycles make a sticky lock worse. A key that needs force eventually snaps inside the cylinder, and a repair is quicker than an extraction.
