When Rekeying Makes Sense

Keep the Hardware, Change the Key Control

Rekeying is ideal when your current locks still work well but you no longer trust who may have copies of the old key. Instead of replacing every lock on the home, we remove the cylinders, re-pin them, and cut new keys so the old key is no longer valid.

This is one of the most practical and cost-effective residential security upgrades because it solves a real risk quickly. It is especially common after moving into a new home, when tenants move out, or when a key has been lost and you are not sure where it ended up.

  • Rekey service after moving into a new home
  • Rental and tenant turnover rekeys
  • Lost, stolen, or unreturned house keys
  • Roommate, family, or caregiver access changes
  • Keying multiple compatible locks alike for convenience

Pricing Guidance

What Affects the Cost of Residential Rekeying

Most rekey jobs are priced based on the number of cylinders, the type of hardware, and whether the locks can all be keyed to one shared key. Rekeying is often more affordable than full replacement because you keep the existing lock bodies and trim.

  • Fewer cylinders usually means a lower total cost.
  • High-security or specialty hardware may take more time or require specific parts.
  • Worn or damaged cylinders sometimes reveal that replacement is a better option than rekeying.
  • Keyed-alike requests are often possible and can simplify your everyday use of the home.

Call us with the number of doors and lock types you have, and we can usually give you helpful pricing guidance before dispatching.

What to Expect

How Lock Rekey Service Works

Rekeying is straightforward when the hardware is compatible and in serviceable condition.

1 We Inspect the Existing Locks

We confirm what hardware you have, how many cylinders need service, and whether the locks are good candidates for rekeying.

2 We Re-Pin the Cylinders

The internal pin setup is changed so the previous key no longer works and a new key is assigned to the lock.

3 We Cut New Keys and Test Everything

We cut the new keys, test the operation on each door, and make sure the locks turn smoothly before the job is complete.

Rekey vs Replace

When It Is Better to Change the Locks Instead

Rekeying is not always the best answer. If the hardware is damaged, outdated, mismatched, or you want a different style or stronger deadbolt, full replacement may be the smarter long-term move.

Frequently Asked Questions

Lock Rekey Questions from Colorado Springs Customers

What is the difference between rekeying a lock and changing a lock?

Rekeying changes the inside pin configuration of your existing lock so the old key stops working and a new key works instead. Changing a lock means replacing the entire hardware set. Rekeying is often more affordable when the current hardware is still in good condition.

Should I rekey my locks after moving into a new home?

Yes. Rekeying after moving in is one of the most common and most practical residential locksmith services. It gives you control over who has working keys without necessarily replacing all of your hardware.

Can you rekey all my house locks to work with one key?

In many cases, yes. If the locks are compatible, we can often key them alike so one key works on multiple doors for easier day-to-day use.

How much does lock rekey service cost?

Pricing depends on the number of cylinders, the lock types, and whether you want multiple locks keyed alike. We provide honest pricing guidance before we begin the work.

How long does it take to rekey locks at a house?

Most residential rekey jobs can be completed in a single visit. The exact time depends on how many locks need service and whether any cylinders are worn or damaged.
