Question on locks
Hi there! Another rookie question. Managing locks can actually be an issue with lost keys, tenants locking themselves out, multiple keys for multiple properties, etc. I was looking at smart locks and numeric locks, as well as LandlordLocks. Can anyone advise? Thank you!

We've really like kwikset 816 key control deadbolt ($38-$45) with passage handles-- we ALWAYS remove keyed entry handles to prevent lockouts.These 816 Landlord Locks have a hidden cylinder for a master key and an easy to rekey "smart" tenant lock. We do also use kwikset smartkey power bolt 2 ($50) locks for tenant convenience on garage entry doors in more upscale properties.
