Rekey or replace?
If your locks work well and you simply want old keys to stop working, rekeying is usually the lower-cost choice. The technician changes the pins inside the cylinder so a new key operates it. If a lock is worn, sticking, damaged, or you want a higher-grade deadbolt or a smart lock, replacement is the better option. We will explain both before you decide.

Choosing the right grade of lock
Locks are graded by ANSI/BHMA. Grade 1 is the most durable and is recommended for exterior doors; Grade 2 and Grade 3 suit interior doors. For front and back doors we usually suggest a Grade 1 or strong Grade 2 deadbolt with a reinforced strike plate. See our guide to deadbolt locks for home security.

Residential locksmith FAQs
Can you match all my house locks to one key?
Often, yes. If your locks share a compatible keyway, we can rekey them so one key opens every door.
Do you help landlords between tenants?
Yes. We rekey or replace locks between tenancies and can set up master key systems for apartment buildings.
Will you need proof I live there?
For lockouts we ask for ID or other proof of residence before opening the door. This protects you and your neighbours.
