If you’ve ever found yourself questioning the security of your front door, it’s probably time to think about a lock change. Whether you’re moving into a new home, upgrading outdated hardware, or dealing with a break-in, replacing your locks is one of the simplest yet most effective ways to protect your property.
At Locksmith On Demand, we help homeowners and businesses across Newmarket secure what matters most. But how do you know when it’s time to change your locks — and how do you pick the right one?
When Should You Change Your Locks?
There are several situations where changing your locks isn’t just recommended — it’s necessary:
Even if the previous owner handed over the keys, there’s no telling how many spare copies are still out there. A fresh lock change ensures only you and the people you trust have access.
If you’ve misplaced your keys (and don’t know where), changing your locks is the safest option — especially if your lost keys were attached to something with your address on it.
Even if the intruder didn’t succeed, a damaged lock is a vulnerable lock. Our emergency locksmiths can replace it with a more secure, tamper-resistant model the same day.
Over time, locks become loose, sticky, or outdated. If you’re dealing with keys that barely turn or locks that look worse for wear, it’s time for an upgrade.
Switching to smart locks or high-security deadbolts? Our team can guide you through the latest secure lock options and install them properly.
What Type of Lock Should You Choose?
Here’s a quick breakdown to help you choose the right fit for your home or business:
Lock Type | Best For | Benefits |
Deadbolts | Front and back doors | Strong, cost-effective, highly secure |
Smart Locks | Busy households, rentals, Airbnbs | Remote access, code-based entry, no keys |
High-Security Locks | Offices, storefronts, high-risk areas | Pick-proof, drill-resistant, bump-resistant |
Keyless Entry | Families, commercial buildings | No key loss, easy user management |
Mortise Locks | Older homes, high-traffic entryways | Durable and architecturally stylish |
Not sure what to choose? Call us — our licensed technicians will assess your door, recommend the best solution, and handle the full install.
