I think it would be worth it to get the locksmith out unless you have a site
close by to take it too. I never wanted to just leave the house unlocked while
I was gone to make the change and having the guy come to the house is really
not that expensive. Especially as compared to the cost of taking a cab and all.
I think you also have a legitimate concern on the standing there with three
locks to undo if you were needing to get them unlocked in a hurry.
You might think about having one of the locks being different and only using it
when you are at home and not giving Tony a copy of that key to carry. That way
if he looses his keys you will still be able to have a lock you do not have to
worry about someone else having. This is just an extra precaution, but I know
you are a cautious person and this is a pretty frugal one.

Subject: [BlindHandyMan] Locks?
Hi,
We have a storm door and a steel door; both have dead bolts on them, and
there are three keys that we have to use, to unlock the doors.
One key is used for the two outside locks, and the two other keys are needed
to unlock the inside door!
I feel like I live in Fort Knox, so what can I do, to eliminate the mess of
keys? I feel something needs to be done because my son will eventually need
to have his own keys, and I'm trying to make it less difficult for him.
Plus, as a woman, I feel it's a safety issue issue for me, especially when
I've got my arms full of packages, etc!
