Need Locks Rekeyed or Changed?

Need Locks Rekeyed or Changed 1

When you lose your keys, or someone has a key that no longer should, your first instinct might be to purchase all new lock hardware. While there are some cheap lock options available, they often are worse than your current hardware. These cheap brands are also often less secure and less sturdy, leaving you prone to a broken lock in the future.

Luckily, there is another option – having your locks rekeyed! Rekeying is when we remove the pins inside your lock, and replace them with new pins that match a new key – thus rendering any existing keys inoperable, and leaving you with shiny new ones!

How to Get Locks Rekeyed

While you may sometimes find rekeying kits at hardware stores, rekeying your own lock can be harder than they make it seem. Often times this can result in you having a large mess of lock pieces, and instead of having your locks rekeyed you now have a much bigger problem!

Instead, we highly recommend hiring a professional to have your house locks rekeyed. You are welcome to remove the locks yourself and bring them into our shop, or we can come to you and do it at your home!

When to Replace Your Locks

Typically, if your goal is to better secure your home and eliminate unwanted access, rekeying your locks is the way to go. However, you may want to consider replacing your locks altogether if you want to have a different color, have electronic access, or just increase you overall home security.

We also recommend replacing locks when all of your house doors have different lock brands and you want to open them with one key. Having a ton of different keys is never fun, yet some locks aren’t compatible with each other and may need to be replaced.

When To Rekey Your Locks

If you have just moved into a new home or if you have lost a key or had someone move out, you make want to consider having your locks rekeyed. Having your locks rekeyed is a good way to help you feel secure, as you won’t have to worry about someone else having a key to your home.

If your locks have the same keyway or are of the same brand, we can rekey your locks to all use the same key. An easy way to test this if your locks aren’t keyed alike already, is to take one of your keys that works one of your locks and attempt to insert it into the other locks in your home. If it slides in, then your locks can be keyed alike!
