Do You Need To Rekey Or Change The Lock

When it comes to all things locks and keys-related, a locksmith is the one to contact and ask for help, no matter what your problem and its level of complexity is. A short conversation with a qualified locksmith can spare you lots of time and money and help you make the right decision when you need to decide whether you need a lock change or a lock rekey, or anything else!

Lock change is not necessarily a worse option than a lock rekey, but it’s totally unnecessary for those who only need to limit access to their property for strangers, who might be having the keys., as this can be done easily through lock rekeying. However, lock change is a must in case that your lock is broken, or if you’ve experienced a burglary and need a safe lock to get higher protection level.

What’s the difference between a lock change and a lock rekey, and what does a “lock re-key” mean?

Lock rekeying is a process performed by a Locksmith, which changes the tumblers inside the lock, thus turning it stranger to the key that used to fit that same lock before. This option is great if you have a properly working lock and it’s a good enough lock to protect your property. Locks rekeying will save you time and money, it can be done 24 hours a day and it requires less time and parts used! It’s very recommended to rekey your locks when you move to a new home!
