Residential Rekeying in Monroe County, MI

Residential rekeying changes the pins inside your home's lock cylinders so they work with a brand new key, while keeping the locks you already have. After a rekey, any old key floating around no longer opens your doors. Rekeying covers front doors, back doors, deadbolts, garage entry doors and more. CS Lock and Key specializes in rekeying residential properties, and we can key all your locks alike so a single key opens every door. It's an affordable way to secure your home while keeping the hardware and finish you like.

When you move into a house or apartment, you have no way of knowing how many copies of the old keys are out there. Previous owners, renters, neighbors and contractors may all have had one. Rekeying makes sure only the people you choose can get in. It's also worth doing after a lost or stolen key, a breakup, a roommate moving out or a lockout where you're not sure where your keys ended up. Because the locks stay in place, rekeying usually costs less than replacing them, and it gives you the same peace of mind.

For a residential rekey, we'll need to confirm you live at or own the property, so have ID or a lease, closing papers or similar documents handy. Count the locks you'd like rekeyed, including deadbolts, knobs, levers and any garage or side doors, and let us know if you'd like them all to use one key. Keep any keys you have for those locks nearby, since a working key makes the job quicker. If a lock is damaged or hard to turn, mention it, because it may be better to repair or replace that one. We'll rekey the locks on site.
