Rekey Locks in Hillside, NJ

Changing Your Lock's Keys

When you move into a home in Hillside, a key goes missing, or a tenant moves out, rekeying is a way to secure the doors without replacing the locks themselves. Rekeying changes the pins inside the lock mechanism so that old keys—whether lost, stolen or held by a previous tenant—no longer work. You get new keys that fit the rekeyed lock. The lock hardware stays on the door.

Rekeying is common after a move, when you want to make sure no one else has a copy of your keys. It's also useful between tenants in a rental property. If you want several doors to open with one key, we can rekey them to be keyed alike, so a single new key opens them all.

Call with your address and tell us which locks need rekeying. A locksmith comes to your home, reworks each lock's pins, and gives you new keys. It's faster and less costly than installing new locks.
