    Advice on house locks

    Is it better to have all of your house locks based on the same key? Or is it better to have several different keys? I can see on the one hand how having lots of keys can be an issue because the risk of losing one is more but then again, it may be better to have different keys for different locks so if you lose one key, it has less access. Overall, what do you think is the best approach? Thanks.
