Why Choose Lock Rekeying?

Lock rekeying involves changing the internal pins and springs of a lock cylinder so that a new key can operate it, while the old key no longer works. This process is significantly less invasive and more economical than a full lock replacement. It’s an ideal choice when:

• You’ve moved into a new home or apartment in Duarte.
• An employee or tenant has left your property.
• You’ve lost a key or suspect it’s been compromised.
• You want to consolidate multiple keys into one master key system for convenience.
• You’re looking for a quick security upgrade.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between rekeying and replacing a lock?

Rekeying changes the internal pins of a lock cylinder so that a new key operates it, while the old key will no longer work. This is a cost-effective solution that reuses your existing lock hardware. Replacing a lock involves removing the entire lock mechanism and installing a new one, which is generally more expensive and time-consuming.

How long does it take to rekey a lock?

For standard residential locks, rekeying typically takes about 15-30 minutes per lock. More complex or high-security locks might take slightly longer. Our technicians are efficient and aim to complete the job with minimal disruption to your day.

Can you rekey different types of locks?

Yes, BH Locksmith can rekey a wide variety of locks, including standard doorknobs, deadbolts, mortise locks, cabinet locks, and even some commercial-grade hardware. If you have specific lock types, please mention them when you call.

What if I lose one of the new keys after rekeying?

If you lose one of the new keys, the best course of action is to have your locks rekeyed again immediately. This ensures that only the keys you currently possess can access your property. We offer prompt rekeying services to address such situations swiftly.

Do I need to be home for the lock rekeying service?

While it’s ideal for you to be present to oversee the process and receive your new keys, it’s not strictly necessary if you’ve made prior arrangements and given explicit permission for our technician to access the locks. However, for security and clarity, we recommend being available.
