Lock Rekey vs. Lock Replacement in Lynwood

Many Lynwood 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.

For most Lynwood residents, rekeying is the right choice. Your existing locks are probably in fine shape — you just need new keys and peace of mind.
