Rekey Locks

If your keys are worn down, if you've moved into a new home, or you have poorly made duplicate keys, rekeying locks is a good idea. Whether lock rekeying at a place of business or at your residence, as long as your lock is not broken, rekeying a lock is typically the best alternative to a lock replacement; for many different reasons. Here are some good ones:

1. Sometimes keys wear down over time causing the lock to stick or not work properly, and a rekey will fix this for you.
2. Any time that you move into a new home, it is always a good idea to have your locks rekeyed to ensure that the previous owner or any workers do not have access to your house.
3. When you make duplicate keys at a hardware store, they are not perfect, meaning a copy of a duplicate may not work the lock as well as the original or at all.
4. Another reason to have your locks rekeyed is if someone undesirable has your key or if you have lost your key.
5. Let's say that you have three doors in your house, each with a deadbolt and a doorknob. If you were to go out and buy all new locks, even if you can put them on, you will have three separate keys, one for each door and still have to get, the other locks rekeyed to match.
6. By having us rekey your locks, you will be guaranteed that the keys we give you will work for the life of the lock.

Lock Rekeying

Lock rekeying will provide the same security level of replacing a lock, but is many times more cost effective and quicker than replacing a lock.

Sometimes replacement of the hardware is going to be the best option for your situation. If a lock has ben damaged or tampered with, you may want to have it replaced. Although a lock may malfunction, it may not need to be replaced entirely; it may only need a new part of the lock.
