RESIDENTIAL LOCK REKEY

When Should You Rekey Your House?

We commonly recommend residential rekeying when:

• You recently purchased a home

• You moved into a new house or rental

• A tenant or roommate moved out

• A key was lost or stolen

• Contractors, cleaners, or previous occupants had keys

• You aren't sure who may have copies of your current key

• You want multiple doors to operate with the same key

If you've just moved into a home, rekeying the exterior locks is one of the easiest ways to make sure you control exactly who has access.

​

​

Can All of My Locks Use the Same Key?

In many homes, yes.

If your locks use compatible keyways, we can often rekey your front door, back door, garage entry, deadbolts, and other exterior locks to work with one key.

Instead of carrying several different house keys, one key can operate multiple doors.

If your existing locks aren't compatible, we'll explain your options before replacing any hardware unnecessarily.

 

Rekeying vs. Replacing Your Locks

You don't always need new locks to get new keys.

With a lock rekey, we change the pins or internal components inside the lock cylinder so the old key stops working and a new key operates the lock.

Rekeying is often the better option when your current hardware is still in good condition.

Lock replacement may make more sense when a lock is damaged, worn out, unreliable, or when you want to upgrade to different hardware or a keypad.

We'll help you determine which option makes the most sense for your home.
