Over time, the pins inside a lock go through wear and tear as keys rub against them. As they erode, you'll notice that the lock gets harder and harder to open or close. At these early signs, it's best to go ahead and either rekey or replace the lock.

Some locksmith companies may advise you to change the locks, but Fox Locks Inc has a better solution. By simply re-keying the existing locks and then making key copies, we'll save you a considerable amount of money without sacrificing security.

While most people start using their original keys immediately after the installation of a new lock, this is actually a mistake. Original keys will fit the lock better than any others, so they should always be kept aside and only used to make copies.
