Rekey or replace? How we help you decide
Rekeying changes the pins inside your existing lock so old keys stop working. It is the usual choice after you move into a new home, lose a key or part ways with a contractor or tenant. Replacement makes more sense when a lock is worn or damaged, when you want a higher security grade, or when you are switching to keyless entry.
Our technician will look at each lock and tell you which option fits before any work starts. If you only need one door done, we will not push a whole-house package.
Locked out of your home?
Call 408-310-4398 and tell us your address and the type of lock. We use non-destructive entry methods whenever the lock allows. If drilling is the only way in, we explain why and quote a replacement lock first. For after-hours help see our emergency locksmith page.
Security advice for your home
While we are on site we are happy to check strike plates, door frames, sliding-door locks and garage side doors. Small fixes, like longer strike-plate screws or a better deadbolt, often make a bigger difference than an expensive gadget. Ask for a free consultation if you would like a walkthrough.
Frequently asked questions
How do you confirm I live at the address?
Before opening a home we ask for ID showing the address, a lease, a utility bill or similar proof. It protects you as much as anyone.
Can you rekey my locks to one key?
Usually, yes. If your locks share the same keyway (for example several Schlage or Kwikset locks) we can rekey them to work with a single key.
Do you install smart locks I bought myself?
Yes. We can install a smart lock you supply, check the door alignment so the bolt throws smoothly, and set up the mechanical key backup.
Can you add a lock to my mailbox?
We can replace mailbox locks and fit new ones on most residential mailboxes. Cluster boxes managed by the post office may need USPS approval first.
