Rekeying changes the small pins inside your existing cylinder so it works with a brand-new key, and every old key stops working immediately. The lock stays on the door. Nothing gets replaced, which is why it costs a fraction of new hardware and takes minutes per door rather than an afternoon.
The usual question is rekey or replace. If the hardware turns smoothly and looks sound, rekeying is the right answer nearly every time. If the cylinder is corroded, the key already sticks, or the lock is builder-grade hardware on its last legs, replacing it makes more sense. In coastal Broward, corrosion is a real factor on anything facing the weather.
Builder-grade locks in master-planned developments deserve a specific mention. Large communities are often fitted out by the same contractor, and it is not unusual for hardware to be keyed alike across multiple homes during construction. If you bought new, rekeying is not paranoia. It is closing a door the build process left open.
Landlords and property managers: turnover rekeys are routine work for us, and we can schedule several units in one visit for less than separate trips. If you run more than a handful of doors, ask about a master key system so one key covers everything while each tenant keeps their own.
Common questions
Rekeying FAQ
What people ask before booking a rekey.
What is the difference between rekeying and changing a lock?
Rekeying changes the pins inside the lock you already have, so a new key works and old keys do not. Changing the lock replaces the whole thing. Rekeying is cheaper and quicker when the hardware is fine.
How long does rekeying take?
Minutes per lock once we are at the door. A typical house with a few exterior doors is usually done well inside an hour.
Can you key all my doors to one key?
Yes, and it is the most common request we get. If your locks are the same brand it is straightforward, and if they are not we will tell you what it takes.
Is rekeying as secure as a new lock?
Yes, provided the lock itself is in good condition. The security comes from the pin configuration, which is completely changed. What rekeying does not fix is a worn or damaged lock.
Do I need to be home?
Someone with authority over the property needs to let us in and confirm the work. For rentals that can be you, your tenant with your say-so, or a property manager.
Can every lock be rekeyed?
Most can. Some very cheap locks and some proprietary or high-security systems are exceptions, and we will tell you honestly if yours is one before we start.
