Signs You Need Lock Replacement

Identifying when you need a lock replacement is crucial for maintaining security. Here are some common symptoms that indicate it might be time for a replacement:

  • Difficulty in Locking/Unlocking: If your lock is stiff or doesn’t engage or disengage smoothly, this could indicate wear and tear.
  • Visible Damage: Cracks, dents, or corrosion on the lock’s surface can compromise its functionality.
  • Misalignment: If the bolt frequently misaligns with the strike plate, your lock may not be secure, and replacement could be necessary.
  • Key Issues: If your key has difficulty turning in the lock or breaks off inside the lock, it’s a strong sign that replacement is needed.
  • Frequent Lockouts: Regular occurrences of getting locked out of your garage could point to faulty locks that require immediate attention.

  • Debris Removal: During the lock replacement process, ensure that all debris is cleaned up to prevent accidents.
  • Lock Security: After replacement, test the new lock multiple times to ensure it operates smoothly and securely before considering the job complete.
