Writ-of-possession lock changes, on the clock
When the writ of possession is executed, the lock change has to happen inside the sheriff's window — not the next morning. We stage at the property before the deputy arrives, change every exterior lock while the lockout is executed, and hand you a secured unit and fresh keys before the deputy leaves the curb. In Florida the clock between final judgment and the 24-hour posted writ is short; we schedule to the sheriff's calendar, not ours.
Standby with the sheriff
Deputies don't wait on late vendors. Standby service means the tech is on site at the agreed time, tools staged, replacement cylinders in hand — so the execution proceeds in one continuous visit. If the sheriff's office reschedules, we reschedule with you at no drama; that's part of the service.
Property secured after tenant removal
After removal, the unit is a liability until it's sealed: exterior doors rekeyed or replaced, garage and utility doors secured, sliders pinned, and window latches checked. You get photographs of the secured openings and a key sheet documenting what was changed — the paper trail your owner statement and your attorney both want.
Master-key setup for portfolios
Eviction turnovers are the natural moment to fold a unit into a landlord master system: your master opens every unit, each tenant key opens one door, and bitting records keep the system clean across future turnovers. Retrofit to existing hardware — no wholesale replacement required.

When in the eviction process do you change the locks?
At the writ-of-possession execution, with the deputy present — or immediately after lawful possession is restored. We coordinate timing with you and the sheriff's schedule; we don't change locks on occupied units outside that process.
Do you wait on site with the sheriff?
Yes — standby at the property at the scheduled execution time is the core of the service, tools staged so the lock change happens during the deputy's visit, not after it.
What documentation do you provide?
A per-door record of what was changed, how many new keys were cut and to whom they were handed, and photographs of the secured property on request.
Can you handle multiple evictions across a portfolio?
Yes — portfolio scheduling is our normal mode. Same-week multi-property runs are quoted as a block, and master-key setup can ride along on the same visits.
