What a Restricted Keyway System Controls That a Normal Key Can't

Unlike regular keys, you won't find these blanks at hardware stores in Southside, Baymeadows, or Tinseltown. Duplication requires your signature or a registered card, closing the silent security gap in Jacksonville homes and businesses.

Designing a Documented Key Matrix Across Your Property

Creating a documented key matrix for your property offers a smooth blend of security and control. By designing a detailed key schedule, we ensure you know which key opens each door and who holds it.

Whether it's a single riverfront home in Ortega or a gated community in San Jose Blvd, we tailor the matrix to fit your needs. For instance, a master key for owners and controlled copies for family or service providers like cleaners and landscapers.

In Southside or Baymeadows offices, the matrix separates staff access, logging each key against a registered card. If a tenant or employee leaves, there's no need to change every cylinder. Instead, we deactivate the key and rekey the affected cylinder within the restricted system.

At hand-over, you'll receive the full documented key matrix, ensuring you always know the exact number of keys and their holders.

Deactivate-on-Departure vs Full Rekey: How Turnover Is Handled

When managing property turnover, choosing between deactivate-on-departure and a full rekey can greatly impact security and cost. Deactivate-on-departure offers a quick solution, particularly for properties with smart locks, where former tenants' access can be revoked instantly. This approach minimizes downtime and reduces expenses.

On the other hand, a full rekey involves physically changing the lock cylinders. It's a more thorough security measure, ensuring no unauthorized copies of keys remain in circulation. This method is ideal for properties requiring heightened security.

Method	Benefits
Deactivate-on-Departure	Cost-effective, quick to apply
Full Rekey	Enhanced security, extensive

Both methods have their place. Let's consider the specific needs of our property to determine the best choice. While deactivate-on-departure is convenient, a full rekey might be necessary in certain situations. It's all about balancing security with practicality.
