Best experience I’ve ever had. Kudos to the gentleman that got my car started and he wanted to make sure I would make it home safely and made sure everything was working properly before I left. He went over and beyond for me because it was almost 2am

Are you using a Rekey Service for Your Home?

If your locks are fine and you only want to thwart old keys, rekeying is your best option.

We change the inner lock so that the old key is rendered useless – providing you with new keys and better security for a fraction of the cost.

When to Rekey Locks

  • You recently moved into a new home.
  • A tenant or roommate moved out.
  • Your keys were lost or stolen.
  • You want multiple locks to work with one key.
  • You want an affordable, quick security refresh.
  • Someone may still have an old key copy.
Our locksmiths rekey deadbolts, knob locks, lever locks, mailbox locks, garage locks, gate locks, high-security mechanical locks, and more.

Why Homeowners Prefer Rekeying

  • Cheaper than replacing locks
  • Fast service in a single visit
  • Old keys become useless immediately.
  • Create a convenient single-key system.
  • No drilling or hardware replacement needed
Rekeying is ideal when your locks work well, and you simply want to control who can enter your home.

Lock Change Services: When You Need New Hardware

Sometimes rekeying isn’t enough. If your locks are damaged, outdated, or you want advanced security features, a full lock replacement is the safer choice.

When to Replace Your Locks

You may need new locks if:
  • Your locks are damaged, rusted, or broken.
  • You want high-security or smart locks.
  • Your current locks offer minimal protection.
  • Your locks can’t be rekeyed.
  • Your home was recently burglarized.
  • You want better durability, strength, or modern features.

Benefits of Lock Replacement

  • Complete home security upgrade
  • Improved durability & stronger hardware
  • Smart lock & keyless entry options
  • Better protection against picking and bumping
  • More modern styles and finishes for curb appeal

lock rekeying service​ vs. lock change service​: What’s Best?

Here’s a quick guide:

Choose Rekeying If:

  • Your hair is functioning well.
  • You just need to set down the old keys.
  • You’d like an affordable way to increase security.
  • You would like one key to open all locks.
  • You recently purchased a home.

Choose Lock Replacement If:

  • Your locks are old or in bad condition.
  • You want upgraded hardware.
  • You’re switching to smart locks.
  • You require better than top-notch security after a burglary.
  • You’re looking for a young, modern vibe.
Rekeying provides the cheapest option, but lock replacement offers the highest level of safety from theft.
