Alberton notes on locksmith services
Factories in Alrode and Tulisa Park set up master key systems with restricted blanks so keys cannot be copied without the card. New owners in Meyersdal Eco Estate and Randhart rekey every outside door after moving in. Landlords in New Redruth and Florentia rekey between tenants, and lock repairs on worn garage locks are common in older houses in General Albertspark.
