How can I secure a rental apartment door without making permanent changes the landlord won't allow?
There are renter-friendly options — portable door bars, surface-mounted secondary locks that don't require drilling, and door sensors — but the most impactful step you can take is requesting a rekey from your landlord so no prior tenant has access. If your landlord won't act, Sundial Locksmith can advise on what's permissible in Columbus, OH and help you add meaningful security within lease constraints.
