Intelligent Security Refurbishments with Lock Rekeying
When you move into a new house or take over a commercial lease, you never know how many copies of the keys are circulating. Replacing the physical lock hardware can get expensive, especially for multi-point UPVC doors or high-security cylinders. Rekeying resolves this completely.
Our mobile engineers extract the lock core, dump the old tumblers, insert brand new brass pin depths, and cut a fresh key. The old keys physically cannot align with the new pin positions, blocking unauthorized entry instantly.
Keying Alike for Home and Office Convenience
We can pin all the locks across your property to match a single key profile, eliminating heavy keyrings and the search for the right key in an emergency.
Common Questions
Lock Rekeying — Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, absolutely. Rekeying alters the internal pin configuration of the existing lock cylinder so that only a new set of keys will operate it. The result is identical security to a new lock, because the old keys physically cannot align with the new pin arrangement. The only scenario where we would recommend a full lock replacement over rekeying is if the existing hardware is worn, damaged, or below insurance-required security standards.
