Some people assume that when they move into a newly built home they don't have to worry about security issues. But if you've just moved in, you have no idea how many people have copies of your keys. There is a high chance that the builder already has a master key, which they used to get access to your home at any time. Apart from the builder, plumbers, electricians, drywall contractors, and flooring specialists, will also need to access your home at some point during the construction phase, meaning they might also have a copy of your keys. Once the building phase is completed, and you've moved in, you will need to work with a locksmith, to rekey or replace your locks. |
