Can a landlord change the lock on your door while you are still living there?

The laws regarding the renting of a storage locker is not the same as residential landlord laws. In a residential setting a landlord may not change any locks whatsoever, without proper eviction procedures followed. If you have a storage locker that is part of the property you are renting from a residential landlord it is subject to that same rule. If your landlord also owns a storage facility from which you are also renting a storage locker, and you owe him rent for your residential property, he may not change the locks of the storage locker as long as you are current on your storage locker rent. If the rent of the residential property includes the rent of the storage locker as part of the rent altogether, he may not change the locks of the locker, whether the locker is located on the property or a separate facility. If you are renting a storage locker, whether the owner of that facility is also your residential landlord. then you are subject to the regulations regarding the rent of a storage locker. If you are behind on that rent the owner may charge you late fees and then may place one of his own locks on your storage locker to lock you out of your locker until all fees and rent are kept current. After a certain time the facility owner may seize your locker and auction off any contents therein.
