Indiana: Tenant changed locks, is now absent, late. I need access to show apartment.

I recently installed new locksets at my home that have the capability to be rekeyed without assistance of a locksmith or removal of the locks. All I have to do is insert and turn the old key, use a provided tool, insert the new key, and lock it (or something like that). Lock is rekeyed is less than a minute.

That is fancy!! I just buy a new deadbolt every year or so (for my home) but it is not unusual for me, I am a safety /security/ privacy freak!!

With three sets of French Doors and two other exterior doors (total of 10 locks), anything else becomes expensive quick.

And confusing! can you set them all to lock/unlock with the same key?

(sorry OT)

Same key.

Another source if not the same would be Ernie's locks at landlord locks.
These can be found with a quick Google search. They are inexpensive and the cylinder can be pulled out and changed without removing the lock. They also come with a universal key so that you can have X amount of locks with the same key.

Question for me now, at this point. Do I continue moving forward with the eviction?

I absolutely would. You can get your judgment for your losses in this process.

In fact, you may wish to speed the process along. You know where he lives NOW (until the weekend, or next weekend at most), and can properly serve him. I doubt he'll give you a forwarding address when he's gone.
