Lock Rekey vs. Lock Replacement in Chester

Many Chester homeowners wonder whether they should rekey or replace. Here's the simple comparison:

• Rekey: Keeps existing hardware, changes internal pins, new keys issued. Cost: typically $15-25 per lock. Best when locks are in good condition.
• Replace: Entirely new lock hardware installed. Cost: $50-200+ per lock. Best when locks are damaged, worn, or you want an upgrade.

A master key system is the ultimate convenience for Chester property owners and managers. Here's how it works: each lock gets its own unique key, but a single master key opens them all. This is perfect for:
