New-Home Rekey

Just moved in? Rekey before you settle.

There is no way to know how many copies of your new home's keys are out there: past owners, agents, contractors, and neighbors. Rekeying is a simple way to make every old key useless and put one key you control in charge of your doors.

We come to you in the Triangle

You have options here

Rekeying is one of the smartest first moves in a new home. We reset the pins inside your existing deadbolts and knobs so previous keys stop working, then hand you a new set. We can even match every door to a single key so you are not juggling a ring of them. It is quick and gives you real peace of mind from night one.

Have a question about your situation? Give us a call and we will talk it through.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between rekeying and replacing locks?
Rekeying reuses your existing hardware and resets the internal pins so old keys stop working, while replacing swaps the lock entirely. Rekeying is a good fit when your current locks are in good shape.
Can you make all my doors use one key?
Yes. Keying everything alike is one of our most popular requests: one key for the front, back, and garage doors.
How soon after moving should I rekey?
As soon as you can, ideally before your first night. You cannot know how many copies of the old key exist, so resetting them is the safe move.
