Best way to key a 14 unit complex?

Hello @Mike Gasper,

I suggest Kwikset Smart locks. They can be easily re-keyed in seconds, eliminating the need to hire a lock smith to change your locks. If you want to take an extra layer and have a "Master" for all of your units, this model from Home Depot, has the easy re-key feature along with a master key.

When I managed 300 doors, I switched to these and didn't look back.  For my personal rentals I use the regular smart key option:

Good luck,

@Mike Gasper I suggest a master key system where you have all keys also open by a master. Get a couple extra locks keyed for turnover. More expensive options are landlord locks or an electronic system.

Kwikset would be good. You can also have a locksmith rekey them and create a master so that you only have to carry one key.
