Locks are what keep your property safe from trespassing, burglary, and intrusion. There are times, however, when your security is compromised, such as if you lost your keys or if a roommate recently moved out but they still have a duplicate of your keys.

When Should You Consider Getting Your Lock Rekeyed?

01

Losing Your House Keys 

If you accidentally lose your keys and can’t seem to find them even after looking, your house may be in a vulnerable condition. Getting the locks rekeyed ensures protection from criminal activity. 

Contact us

02

Changing Your Home 

If you relocated recently, it is important to rekey the locks so that none of the previous occupants can enter your property. This eliminates the risk of old keys being used to enter your space.

03

After a Tenant Moves Out 

Even if an old tenant who moved out doesn’t have the original keys to your home, there’s always a chance that they had copies made. Lock rekeying prioritizes your safety in this situation.

04

Old and Damaged Keys 

After repeated use, keys can become bent or structurally weakened, increasing the risk of getting stuck or broken inside the lock. Rekeying provides you with a new key without changing the lock.

Rekeying vs Door Lock Replacement | Helping You Choose the Best Security Solution

At Royal Locksmith, we offer both lock rekey and lock replacement services. But how do you choose between the two? Both services are equally important, but it depends on what you’re trying to achieve. Let us guide you by listing the differences between the two. 

Door Lock Rekey 

Manipulates the lock’s internal structure by replacing the pins, so it fits a new key. 

More cost-effective and time-saving as it only involves working with the current lock. 

Rekeying is recommended if the lock is in good condition, but you want to replace the key.  

Door Lock Replacement 

Involves completely deconstructing the existing lock to replace it with a new one. 

A pricier and more time-consuming process as it involves more labor and expertise. 

Important if your locks are too damaged or if you want to upgrade to a more secure lock. 

Want us to change your outdated knob lock to a smart keyless system? Royal Locksmith will happily assist you. Whether you’re in Washington DC or nearby areas like Rockville or MD, we’ll arrive at your home to begin the rekeying process.

How Our Expert Locksmiths Rekey Your Residential Locks

Our rekey locksmiths will disassemble your lock and remove the cylinder that contains the lock’s key pins. 

We will carefully and precisely replace the key pins with a new one that is designed according to another key. 

After securing the new pins, we’ll assemble the modified lock and install it over the surface where it was at first. 

We’ll test the lock to see if it’s working, and hand over the new keys to you, making the older keys useless.
