Rekey Your Locks

You have moved into a new home or apartment. Do you know where all the keys are that were given out before you got there? Whether you have purchased your home or you are renting, there could be dozens of strangers who now have access to your home. If you do not want to completely replace your locks, our residential lock rekeying can provide an economical way to improve security.

What is Lock Rekeying?

There are tumbler pins in a standard lock that match up with your existing key and allow that key to turn the lock. When we rekey a lock, we reset those tumbler pins so they match a new key that your locksmith provides. It’s almost like having a new lock! In fact, your Lock N More residential locksmith can use the rekeying process to make all your home’s doors open with a single key.

A Name You Can Trust

There are many locksmiths out there, but we are not all the same. When you are trying to ensure your home’s security, the first step is finding a locksmith you can trust. Lock N More is licensed and insured. In addition, we carefully background-check our locksmith professionals so you can feel comfortable with the person coming into your home.
