New keys. Same locks. Fresh start.
Rekeying is the locksmith world's best-kept secret: we change the inside of your lock so old keys stop working — without replacing the hardware. It's quick, it's neat, and it's perfect for new homeowners, landlords, and anyone who's lost track of their key copies.
What rekeying actually means
Inside every pin-tumbler lock is a set of tiny pins matched to your key's cuts. When we rekey a lock, we replace those pins with a new combination and cut you fresh keys to match. The lock stays on your door — it just answers to different keys now. Old keys become instant souvenirs: they slide in, but they won't turn.
So when should you rekey, and when should you replace? Rekey when your locks are in good working order — smooth, solid, no rust or wobble. Replace when the hardware is worn out, damaged, or you'd like an upgrade anyway (say, to a deadbolt or a smart lock). We'll always give you our honest take before we start, because the right answer isn't always the bigger job.
Rekeying is also your chance at one-key convenience: we can key every lock in your home or office alike, so a single key opens the front door, the back door, and the side gate. And while we're there, we'll cut you as many spares as you like — for the family, the neighbor, the office manager — so you're never stuck without a backup.
- Locks re-pinned so old keys no longer work
- Ideal after moving, lost keys, roommate or staff changes
- Best when your existing hardware is in good shape
- One key for your whole home or office (keyed alike)
- Spare and duplicate keys cut on the spot
- Mailboxes, file cabinets, and padlocks too
Good to know
Rekeying makes sense when your locks are in good working order — if they're worn, rusty, or wobbly, replacement is the better call and we'll tell you honestly. After a rekey, keep new spares with people you trust, and consider making every lock in the house answer to a single key. One key, zero fumbling at the door.
