Lockout Prevention
Lockout Prevention. Lockouts can be incredibly frustrating and often happen at the most inconvenient times. Whether you’re locked out of your home, car, or office, preventing lockouts is easier than you might think. Here are some simple steps you can take to avoid getting locked out.
1. Keep Spare Keys in Safe Places
One of the best ways to avoid a lockout is by having spare keys on hand. Store them in a secure location, like with a trusted friend or in a lockbox.
2. Regular Lock Maintenance
Ensure your locks are in good working condition by cleaning, lubricating, and checking for wear and tear. Proper lock maintenance can prevent malfunctions that lead to lockouts. Make sure the alignment is smooth and the easy to use. We provide assistance to correct alignment issues.
We should include key maintenance as well. When your keys are worn or bent, they can easily stop working or break-off in the keyway. Lock and key maintenance is one of the best ways of preventing lockouts.
3. Upgrade to Keyless Entry
Keyless entry systems eliminate the need for physical keys, reducing the risk of lockouts. Many modern homes and businesses use smart locks, which offer convenience and increased security. That said, having a key override is a helpful addition for instances of power outages or other types of failures.
4. Use a Key Finder App
If you frequently misplace your keys, consider investing in a key-finding device or app that helps you locate your keys quickly.

Lockout Prevention requires a little foresight and effort. Keep spare keys, maintain your locks, and consider upgrading to smart locks for added security and convenience. Contact Orion’s Key for all your locksmith and security needs
