One reason why lock rekeying is a valuable option is that it is a cost-effective alternative to replacing a lock. This mostly has to do with the fact that the lock body, as well as the rest of the hardware involved, remains intact.

What Is Lock Rekeying & How Is It Done

Rekeying involves replacing the pins and springs from the lock cylinder with new pins and springs that have a different unlock pattern and that work with a different key. Rekeying a lock is a very cost-effective option, especially for owners of multiple properties who may have tenants or residents swapping in and out frequently.

The steps involved with rekeying include opening up the lock, taking it out of the installed doorjamb, removing the pins and springs from the lock cylinder, and replacing them with a new set of different unlock patterns. From this point, a precut key to match the new unlock pattern is duplicated, the lock is put back together, and then it is placed back into the doorjamb.

Pros to Having Your Lock Rekeyed

As mentioned earlier, lock rekeying is a cost-effective option for upgrading your security. However, there are a few other pros to having your locks rekeyed, which include:

• Maintaining "lock control" - A common scenario involves new homeowners who would like to prevent the previous homeowners, or anybody for that matter, from gaining easy entry by using copies of an old set of keys.
• Fast and convenient - Professional locksmiths, such as the team members at Sonic Locksmith, can perform lock rekeying very quickly.
• Keep the hardware - With lock rekeying, it isn't necessary to get new doorknobs or handles, as only the internals of the lock is being changed.
