01 /When to change
When should a business change its locks?
Whenever you cannot be sure who holds a key.
02 /How it works
Rekey, replace or upgrade?
Most commercial lock changes are rekeys. Replacement and upgrades come in when the hardware falls short.
Rekey
New pins, new keys, same hardware. The fastest option after turnover.
Replace
Worn, damaged or low-grade commercial hardware is replaced with a suitable grade for traffic and use.
Storefront cylinders
Glass and aluminum storefront doors usually use mortise cylinders, which are rekeyed or swapped rather than replaced.
Upgrade
Keypad or access control removes the need to rekey every time someone leaves.

| Keep a key log | Know exactly who has which key and when it was issued. |
| Collect keys on exit | Make key return part of every exit checklist. |
| Use restricted keys | Staff cannot make extra copies. |
| Master key the building | Issue only the keys each person needs. |
| Consider keypads on high-turnover doors | Delete a code instead of rekeying. |

06 /Fall River & the South Coast
Lock changes for South Coast businesses
Fall River’s small businesses range from storefronts on the city’s main commercial streets to suites in converted mills. Many share entrances with other tenants, so a lock change may cover your suite door, a storage room and your key to the common entry.
If you lease, check your lease before changing locks: many landlords require notice and a copy of the new key, and some require their own vendor.
Scheduling before opening or on a Saturday can be discussed when you request service, subject to availability.
