Render old keys useless without replacing your locks.

What You Get

Why customers choose us for rekey service

  • Re-pin existing locks, no need to buy new hardware
  • One key works every door, keyed-alike rekeying available
  • Whole-home rekeys completed in a single visit
  • Ideal after move-in, roommate changes, or lost keys
  • Significant savings vs. full lock replacement

Rekeying: the smart move when keys are unaccounted for

Rekeying is the simplest way to reset who has access to your property without spending money on new hardware. Rather than swapping the entire lock, we open the cylinder, remove the existing pins, and re-pin it to a brand-new key. The lock looks exactly the same, works exactly the same, and your old keys no longer turn, period.

When rekeying is the right call

  • You just bought a new home and don’t know who else has keys
  • You moved into a rental and want fresh keys
  • A roommate or contractor moved out
  • You lost a keychain or had a wallet stolen
  • You want all your exterior doors to open with a single key
  • You manage a property and a tenant just turned over

A smart, lower-cost alternative to lock replacement

If your existing locks are in good shape, rekeying gives you the same access-control outcome as a full lock replacement, at a fraction of the cost. We give you an honest quote on the call so you know exactly what to expect before we dispatch.

We carry rekey kits for every major residential keyway on every truck. As long as your locks are structurally sound, we can finish a whole-home rekey in a single visit. We bring freshly cut keys with us so you walk away with new working keys the moment we’re done.
