Rekeying: The Fastest Way to Take Back Your Keys
Rekeying changes the pins inside your existing locks so every old key stops working and a brand-new key takes over. You keep your hardware — you just take back control of who can open your doors.
When to Rekey
- Moving into a new home — you can’t know how many old keys exist
- Lost or stolen keys — make them useless the same day
- Tenant or roommate changes — fresh keys between occupants
- Employee turnover — secure your business when staff leave
- One key for everything — combine compatible locks to a single key
Rekey or Replace?
Rekey when the locks are healthy but the keys are compromised. Replace when locks are worn, damaged, or you want a security or style upgrade — we’ll tell you honestly which situation you’re in, and your quote reflects it.
