Your locks protect everyone inside. When that changes — a move, a lost key, a relationship that ended, a contractor who no longer needs access — you need the locks changed before something else does.

Three Ways We Can Help
Rekey Your Existing Locks
Same locks, new keys. We change the internal tumblers so existing keys — yours or anyone else’s — no longer work. Faster and less expensive than replacing the hardware. Works on virtually all residential lock brands.
Change Locks After Moving
You don’t know who has a copy of the previous owner’s keys. Sellers, contractors, neighbors, ex-partners — anyone could. Rekeying after a move is the single most important thing you can do for your home’s security. We make it easy.
Smart Lock Programming & Code Reset
Forgot your keypad code? Need to remove an old access code? Moved into a home with a smart lock and don’t know the credentials? We program, reset, and pair smart locks from all major brands.
Rekeying vs. Replacing — What's the Difference?
Most customers don’t need new locks — they need new keys. Rekeying changes the pins inside your existing lock cylinder so that only new keys will work. The hardware stays in place. The job takes about 15 minutes per lock. You walk away with new keys and the confidence that the old ones are useless.
Lock replacement makes sense when hardware is damaged, outdated, or you want to upgrade to a deadbolt or smart lock. It’s worth knowing that replacing hardware can sometimes require door and frame modifications — adding cost, time, and complexity that rekeying never involves. When the existing hardware is sound and the issue is security, rekeying is the obvious choice. We’ll tell you honestly which option makes sense for your situation when you call.

COMMON QUESTIONS
What’s the difference between rekeying and replacing locks?
Rekeying changes the pins inside your existing lock so old keys no longer work — the hardware stays in place. Replacing the lock means installing new hardware entirely, which can also involve door or frame modifications that add cost and time. For most security situations, rekeying is the right call and the less expensive one. We’ll tell you which makes sense for yours.
Can I use one key for all my locks?
Yes — if all your locks share the same keyway, we can rekey them alike in a single visit so one key opens every door. If the keyways are different, it’s still possible but may require replacing some hardware to get everything on the same system. We’ll assess that on-site and tell you what’s involved before you commit to anything.
How long does rekeying take?
A standard residential rekey takes approximately 15 minutes per lock. Most homes are done in under an hour. Same-day service is available for most requests.
Do I need to be home for the service?
Yes. Someone needs to be present to let the technician in and to receive the new keys when the job is complete.
Can you reset or reprogram my smart lock?
Yes. We program, reset, and pair smart locks from all major brands — including Yale, Schlage, Kwikset, and others. If you’ve moved into a home with an existing smart lock or forgotten your access code, call us.
