Lock Rekey vs. Lock Replacement in Rutherford
Many Rutherford 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 Rutherford residents, rekeying is the right choice. Your existing locks are probably in fine shape — you just need new keys and peace of mind.

A master key system is the ultimate convenience for Rutherford 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:
- Rutherford apartment buildings where managers need universal access
- Office buildings with different departments needing separate access
- Multi-door homes where one key for everything saves hassle
- Rental properties where landlord access must be maintained
We design and implement master key systems during the rekeying process — it's the most cost-effective time to set one up.
