Best locks for landlords to use
I would like to hear what other landlords use for locks. I was recently told about a lock that can be used on multiple properties but the landlord/owner can get in all with just one key. Anybody out there using any special locks that make life easier?

I use a combination of Kwikset SmartKey locks and Schlage keypad locks at my properties.
On another recent project Lowe's was able to special order me a master keyed system from Kwikset. We purchased 60+ locksets keyed individually but with one master key that fits them all. If we ever want to add more Lowes keeps the lock numbers on file and can order more straight from Kwikset. Pretty slick if you are in need of a real master key system.
