Not only is eviction a legal process, but sometimes it also involves the change of property ownership from one individual to another. During this process, it is critical to protect the property from unauthorized access. Apart from the presence of law enforcement, the role of a locksmith in Cobb County is essential in ensuring success.

Ensuring Legal Compliance Through Practice

Without adequate authorization, licensed locksmiths will not perform any duty. They verify instructions and ensure that the request comes after the eviction is legalized.

This protects the landlord against lawsuits and ensures that the process is conducted appropriately. Plus, a licensed locksmith keeps records of the job done, which can be used as evidence if a dispute arises in the future. Such a level of professionalism is needed and it is part of the job-related duties.

Restricting Access and Preventing Re-entry

The work of a locksmith in evictions revolves around access control. Once the locks are replaced or rekeyed, the previous tenants no longer have access to the property, even with the old keys. In doing so, conflicts will be avoided, and the property will be safeguarded against unauthorized entry.

The replacement of hardware is not all a locksmith does. They also make sure that all possible locations of entry are safeguarded. To completely seal these gaps, QuickPro Locksmith strives to eradicate any doubt about who is going to have access in the future.

Assessing and Improving Property Security

A good locksmith shop comes in handy during the eviction process, as it can readily supply the right tools and lock solutions. With their assistance, the professional will be able to attend to all types of property needs without delaying the process.

Once legal procedure is enforced, a locksmith ensures that the property is properly secured by changing or rekeying the locks, updating the security system, and confirming that entry is controlled and compliant with the law.

Without having a trusted locksmith to perform this task, the eviction process remains incomplete from a security standpoint. In this article, we will explore the key role a locksmith plays during property evictions.

Acting at the Point of Possession

The locksmith becomes very important when the property has officially been returned to the rightful owner. After the official notification of the eviction has occurred, the locksmith will lock down the property and change the locks to make all old keys obsolete.

This ensures that the property is locked down properly and completely safe from any unwanted intruders.

When it comes to securing your property, the experts from QuickPro Locksmith provide quality services without sacrificing accuracy.

Excellent service - called them upon arrival to ATL when I realized I had left my car keys at a relative’s house multiple states away. They were at my car within 29 minutes. Rich was friendly, courteous, and took the time to engage with my curious 6 year old on the locksmithing process. 100% pleased all around!

QuickPro is the BEST! They were onsite within less than an hour of calling and helped us access a safe we were locked out of. Cody was friendly and super helpful and took care of us in less than 10 minutes. Definitely the best experience we’ve had with a locksmith. I highly recommend them over anyone else!

This service call with Doug is the embodiment of exemplary customer service! First - since I called late afternoon, I was expecting to have to schedule a next day appointment (if lucky), but I got a call back within a few minutes, and Doug was on the way to my home. He quickly surveyed my requests, which were 1. enlarging the hole on my door to accommodate a new lock that my husband was going to install, 2. re-key a side door to match all the other locks on our house, and 3. re-key and make new keys for my 2 garage doors. The quote was extremely reasonable, so we had Doug begin work.  He ran into a bit of an issue with my garage doors, and had to make a trip to his shop, but got back and continued working.  While Doug was working, I thought of a few other door hardware/frame issues I was having (that had been annoying me for years), and Doug fixed those for me as well, for only a tiny additional amount. On top of that, not only did Doug enlarge the hole on the door to accommodate the new lock that my husband was going to install.....he went ahead and installed the new lock!  To put the cherry on top of an exceptionally well-done job, Doug was so personable and friendly - I felt like we'd known each other for years!  If every customer/supplier interaction could be like this, the world would be a much happier place.....

Just had a new key made with Doug. He arrived at my apartment within 20 min of my initial call. He was really nice and professional. Even though it was extremely cold outside he was still patient and took his time with cutting a key to get into my car. The price was definitely worth it! I would refer them to any of my friends.

College Park, GA

QuickPro was fabulous. They sent me Doug, who made it to my location in less than 15 minutes. Doug was very professional and very kind, and he was VERY patient with my somewhat finicky old car despite the cold, pouring rain. I cannot recommend this company highly enough--they were also very affordable, given the speed with which they arrived and the effortlessness it took to open the car (literally 2 minutes).

After closing on a new home, I researched a few locksmiths around town and decided to give QuickPro Locksmith a call. I had the pleasure of getting Doug as my locksmith. He was right on time! He was able to re-key and upgrade my locks at a reasonable rate. I like that he was upfront about the costs when he came out to review the locks and address any concerns I had. He was very professional and friendly which is a great representation of QuickPro Locksmith and not to mention he went out of his way to go get specific locks I requested and returned within a reasonable time to complete the installation. I would recommend and use this company again because of the service I received from Doug! He rocks!

Doug was an absolute lifesaver!!! I had dropped both my car keys and apartment key down the trash chute, and he made sure I had not only 1 but 2 apartment keys, and 2 car keys. He was extremely kind and quick too. It’s hard to find that level of customer service. He definitely turned my day back around. Thank you so much!!

My son got locked out of his truck and we had to search to find a good locksmith.  We were fortunate enough to call and get connected to Doug. He was on time,efficient, professional and put my mind at ease that he would get my son back into his car and on the road again. If you are looking for an excellent locksmith who cares about people and giving them fast courteous service  with fair prices.DOUG is your man. I will be referring you to my family and friends. Thanks Doug.

The amazing technician Ro came out and serviced the stuck ignition on my car. Not only did he fix the problem, but he went above and beyond in order to keep the problem from happening again in the future. Fantastic work.

Sandy Springs, GA

Doug is the BEST.  Always quick to arrive and he’s helped me several times.  He fixed and attached the Ring, he’s replaced my front door lock, fixed the digital lock that the old neighbors left when I moved in, then he changed it when I didn’t want it anymore.  Kind and professional and a good price point.  He’s there very quickly from the time I need him and has been superb in repairing what was needed and all around great in every way.

Have a fancy car that doesn't use keys? Have only one? These are the people to call to get a new electronic key from. Rotem made me a new key for a mini cooper s. The company has the knowledge and skills to get you a new key for less than the dealership, and all the convenience of them coming to you. I highly recommend this company!

Jecelia Johns

Atlanta, GA

I had the right keys but the lock just wouldn't turn. I called QuickPro and they were at my home within 30 minutes. The locksmith was very nice and professional. He was able to open my  door and get me inside within minutes. He also explained what happened and how to prevent it from happening again. 100% recommend them!
