remove the cylinder from the closet door lock and have a locksmith make a new key and change the lock to fit, telling him that you wish the lock so changed that it cannot be oper ated by any possibly existent master key. If you have sev eral doors fitted with the same type of lock, it is a simple mat ter to have all the locks changed to operate with a single key; this has the minor disadvantage that if the key is lost or stolen, it may be desirable to change ' all the locks instead of only one.
Some locksmiths are, of course, fully to be trusted, but others may yield to the tempta tion of cooperating with people who have designs upon your house or apartment. It will help somewhat to reduce the risk of collusion between an unknown locksmith and per sons having need for keys for illegal purposes, if the job is done by a locksmith in a re mote section of the city or in another city--and don't give your name or address. If prac ticable it is a good idea to watch while the new key is made and the lock changed to fit, for the process takes only a few min utes. (One advantage in being present when the key is being made is to know that an extra one is not being made and re tained in the shop.)
It is possible to have a key cut in such a pattern that there will be a wide variation in the depth of the cuts or notches. The lock is then less easy to pick than one which is fitted to a lock with more uniform (shal lower) cuts. The sketches illus trate two keys for a lock, one of which is well and one of which is poorly adapted from this standpoint.
While the locksmith has the lock disassembled, notice how many pins it is designed to hold; for each tumbler-pin there is a corresponding driv ing pin actuated by a spring. When the lock is re-assembled, be sure that the complete set of tumbler-pins, driving pins, and springs is used, because if any are missing, the lock is made much easier to pick. (The key itself, of course, will give no clue as to the completeness of the parts inside the lock.) The better locks have at least five sets of pins which engage corresponding notches or cuts on the key.
Very good and highly trust worthy locksmiths have more to do than they can handle at this time, so that if possible one's needs for key fitting and lock cl anging should be antici pated somewhat, so that the work will be ready when needed.
