Lesson Overview

10.18 – Managing Keys, Locks, and Entry Security: Entry safety defines who can access your peace. Managing keys means keeping spares only with trusted individuals and never labeling them with your address. Replacing locks after move-outs or lost keys ensures continued protection. Using deadbolts, peepholes, and security chains adds layers of defense without creating fear. Smart locks or keypads can increase safety if passwords stay private and updated. Always check that doors latch fully; a second of attention prevents hours of regret. Avoid hiding keys under obvious spots like mats or planters. Keeping a small flashlight near entrances improves visibility when returning home at night. Entry awareness builds confidence because you control who enters your world. Every secured lock reinforces the message that safety and independence go hand in hand. Protecting access points is not paranoia—it’s a daily declaration that your wellbeing matters.
