Re-keying Services
It’s 3 a.m. Do you know where your spare keys are? It can be easy to lose track of who has keys to your home or office.
This is especially true if you provide copies to tenants or employees that come and go. Re-keying changes the tumblers found inside the lock cylinders to prevent older keys from working, and it's faster and less expensive than replacing the locks.
Locations

FAQ'S
-
How should I prepare to have my door locks re-keyed?
Please keep the area near the door clear for the locksmith to work. Make sure to have at least one working key present for any locks that are to be rekeyed.
-
How long the re-keying service take to complete?
Our qualified locksmith can rekey within 15-30 minutes
-
Can I have multiple copies of the new keys?
Yes- we can provide as many keys as you need
-
How often should I have my door lock re-keyed?
You should make re-keying part of your regular security process, especially if you’re not the only person who accesses your property with the same door keys. Since you never know how many copies were made, whenever someone who previously had a key has their access revoked, it’s wise to re-key the lock to prevent duplicates from working.
-
Do I have to replace the entire lock?
Re-keying uses your existing lock – it just re-configures or re-codes the inner workings so the old keys won’t work and a new set of keys will. The process is faster and less expensive than a full lock replacement.
-
I'm just outside your service area, can I use your service?
It doesn’t hurt to give us a call and ask! We’ll have to take it on a case-by-case basis, but we’ll be happy to let you know during the call.
