Let’s talk about the advantages of a removable core restricted key locking system and the benefit of having one installed. Scenario #1;  let’s say you own a chain of fast food restaurants. As part of t job responsibilities,  you have to give your employees a key or set of keys for access, to open and close the restaurant or for whatever duties that having keys calls for.  And being in the restaurant business which is known to have a high turnover rate,  you have just entrusted a new employee with the key or keys to your location.  If they leave,   along comes the  the cost  and headache of having  to  re-key every time an employee leaves, especially if it was under questionable circumstances. Even though  they  may have  physically returned the key(s) you provided when they left there is nothing preventing them from  easily duplicating  a set at any home center or  hardware store.  Thus requiring you to have the locks re-keyed.  Your business is now at risk!

Now the solution;  we could provide you with keys,  that if returned or not, a disgruntled employee can never duplicate the key and saving you from having your business locks re-keyed over and over. Yes, Easters Lock and Security is able to guarantee you that  the former employee  would  not be able to duplicate their set of key(s).  How is that, you ask? There are patented high security keys which are protected from unauthorized duplication. Only you and who you authorize can ever  duplicate that particular key.  If you get your keys back you immediately realize the ROI (return on your investment). Now multiply that by how many employees you hire in a year.

What if you don’t get your key(s) back and not expecting the ever get it  back? Approximately 77% of the time  your keys  will be returned to you. Especially if  include  key return as part of their employee indoctrination which explains the cost of having the locks changed  and how that will be deducted from their final paycheck .  Your chances of getting those keys back increases  by about 6%.  Now the odds are down to a 17% that you should ever need to have your business’ locks changed.

Scenario #2; What if an employee walks out on a Saturday night at 2:00 am in the morning and you didn’t get their key back and are sure you probably will not?  The  cost for a locksmith to come out at two in the morning is extremely expensive.  Now, you can quickly change your locks all by yourself with just a  30 degree turn of the control key.  Insert a new core and voila!  your locks are changed and  will avoid ever having  to call a locksmith again.

Included with the system is the ability to customize  what and how particular keys  will work.  As an example, you, the owner possess the master key that will open all of your locations. One of your regional managers may carry a relegated key that will open only the stores  in their region.  Then a store manager will have a key that will open any door in their location.  Individual employees are given certain keys  that will  be used for access based on what their job duties entail. You have the ability to assign keys according to your business and employee access needs and based on hierarchy.
