Holiday cottages and lodges
Strathspey has a lot of holiday cottages, lodges and second homes. Keys get lost, guests get locked out and codes get shared, so good access arrangements matter:
- Keypad locks let you change the code for every booking. See access control.
- Key safes should be properly rated and fixed into masonry. See are key safes secure?.
- Change cylinders whenever a cleaner or manager moves on, or a key goes missing.

Cold-weather lock problems
Winters here are colder than on the coast. uPVC and composite doors move with the temperature and can drop out of line, so they become hard to lock. Locks can also freeze. Pouring boiling water on a lock is a bad idea: it refreezes and can crack fittings. Read why doors stick in winter.
Distance
Because Grantown is further from Forres, call Colin to check timings before you rely on an emergency visit.
