Lock Rekey Done Right the First Time
Rekeying changes the pins inside your existing lock so it works with a brand new key and rejects every old copy. Alameda Locksmiths rekeys homes, apartments, condos and businesses across Alameda in a single visit, usually without removing the lock from the door for more than a few minutes.
This is the right choice after moving into a new place, when a key is lost or stolen, when a contractor or former tenant still has a copy, or when you want one key to open every door. We can also rekey several locks to match so you carry fewer keys. Many customers combine this with our Gate Locks service and our Key Duplication service.
Our technicians rekey nearly every residential and commercial cylinder including Schlage, Kwikset, Baldwin, Emtek, Medeco and Mul-T-Lock. For smart locks with a mechanical backup cylinder we rekey the backup so your old physical keys stop working as well.
