Rekeying alters the internal configuration of a lock so that an existing key will no longer work and a new key becomes necessary. This can be a cost-effective option when the lock itself remains in good working condition.
Lock replacement involves installing entirely new lock hardware. Replacement is typically recommended when a lock is damaged, worn, outdated, or when you're looking to enhance your property's security.When should I have my locks rekeyed?
You should consider rekeying your locks if you:
Recently purchased a home

Are updating access to a rental or commercial property
