What is the Difference between Cylinder Change and Lock Change?
It is common to confuse changing the cylinder (or barrel, sometimes called barrel) with completely changing the lock.Changing the cylinder only involves replacing the internal part of the mechanism, that which is connected to the key /strong>. This allows you to get a new set of keys while keeping the same locking mechanism on the door. This is a practical and generally less expensive solution if you want to change your keys without replacing the entire lock.
On the other hand, changing the lock refers to the complete replacement of the entire locking device attached to the door. This process includes the installation of a complete new lock, whether flush or surface mounted, and can include high security models with 3 to 9 locking points. Complete replacement of the lock is recommended in cases of serious malfunctions, damage or to increase the level of security.

Why and When to Change Locks in Paris?
When your lock shows signs of wear – such as difficulty turning, unusual noises, or a need to force even the door open – it's often time to consider a replacement. A worn lock becomes a security risk. Rapid intervention ensures better protection of your home and prevents future problems.
In the event of loss or theft of keys: essential security
Losing your keys or having them stolen can be a source of worry. In this case, changing the lock becomes essential to avoid unauthorized access. A replacement provides you with renewed security and peace of mind, especially in an urban context.
Broken Key in Lock: Urgent Intervention Necessary
If a key breaks in the lock, it can completely block access. In this situation, rapid intervention allows the piece to be removed and the lock to be changed if necessary. Preventive replacement of worn locks often avoids these costly and stressful incidents.
Securing After a Break-In Attempt or Burglary
After a break-in attempt, replacing the lock is essential to restore the security of your home. Opting for high security, certified locks reinforces the resistance of your doors and reduces the risk of new intrusions.
