Tips From Our Techs - Keep Locks Trouble-Free
- Lube it yearly - A tiny drop of graphite or silicone spray keeps your lock cylinder turning smoothly, especially in winter.
- Don't force stuck keys - Wiggle gently or stop. A broken key is a much bigger issue than a sticky one.
- Rekey after roommates leave - Especially if keys weren't returned. You never know what copies were made.
- Upgrade before you list - Selling your home? A fresh smart lock adds both value and peace of mind for buyers.
