Went over today & she hadn't changed the locks like she said she would, so either she was just bluffing or she couldn't find any locksmith who would make her a key. Don't know if the police will keep an eye on it but I will ask.

Your position would be that she was given that amount of time in which to vacate and she has vacated (actually even before the date of the order), thus surrendering the premises. So if she were to come back without permission that would constitute trespassing. And if she were to get a key somehow and use it to enter, that would constitute breaking and entry.
