About this service

Rekey Locks, explained

Rekeying changes the pins inside the lock so it works with a new key. The lock and hardware stay on the door, so it costs much less than new locks.

When you buy or rent a home, you do not know how many copies of the old key exist: previous owners, contractors, cleaners, neighbors. Rekeying is the simplest way to know exactly who can get in.

FAQ

Rekey Locks questions

Rekey or change locks?

Rekey if the locks work and you like them. Change them if they are worn, damaged, or you want a stronger or smart lock.

Can you rekey a lock without the key?

Yes, though it takes a little longer since we have to open the lock first.

Can my landlord rekey between tenants?

Yes, and many do. Landlords and property managers can call us to rekey units between move-out and move-in.
