Guelph Master Key System
Locks play a vital role in our lives in that they keep us safe inside our homes and 
offices and at the same time keep out undesirables that may do harm to us. As such the keys to these locks are very important items that most people would have in their personal belongings. However, in a building where there may be locks to many offices and rooms, keeping tabs on the different keys to all these locks can be a problem.
More often than not, only a few persons or a select group of people have access to certain locks. That is to say, only people belonging to a certain office have the keys to that particular office. But what happens when they lose the key(s) or forget the key? This can cause a lot of hassle to the holder of the key and the people in the said office.
Here is a situation where having a master-key or a master-key system can be a big advantage.
The holder of the master-key system will be able to unlock the problematic door or lock without having people go searching for the lost key or breaking the lock to gain access to the place. Of course a locksmith could be called in to help with opening the said lock but it will take time to find one and have them come out while if a master-key is available, people can gain access to the office immediately and then call in a locksmith afterwards.
Often times the master-key system is used in a building where there are dozens of offices/rooms such as an office building or an apartment building. Occupants of the different places have their own keys while the building administrator will have a key or set of keys that can unlock particular sections or all of the locks. Only those authorized will have access to the master-key system thus ensuring security for all persons occupying the building. Office or apartment lock outs can thus be minimized. The different tenants will only have key(s) to their own places and not to others.
Security is enhanced within the building for all occupants. While some people may argue that the master-key system will be prone to lock picking, today’s lock systems are designed to prevent this and it rarely happens if ever. At the same time, most modern locksmiths offer up to date systems that can be designed to cater to the needs of a particular office or building ensuring convenience and security at the same time.
