Frequently Asked Questions - Lock Rekeying Service St. Louis

Common questions about our professional lock rekeying service in St. Louis and surrounding areas

How does lock rekeying differ from lock replacement?

Lock rekeying changes the internal pin mechanism so old keys no longer work, while keeping your existing lock hardware. This typically costs significantly less than full lock replacement. Rekeying is ideal when your locks are in good condition but you need new keys for security. Lock replacement is recommended when locks are damaged, worn out, or you want to upgrade to higher security levels.

How long does lock rekeying take in St. Louis?

Most lock rekeying jobs in St. Louis take 15-30 minutes per lock. A typical home with 3-4 locks can be completely rekeyed in 1-2 hours. The process is much faster than lock replacement since we're only changing the internal pins rather than removing and installing new hardware. We can often complete same-day service throughout the St. Louis area.

Can all locks be rekeyed, or do some need replacement?

Most standard pin tumbler locks can be rekeyed, including deadbolts, door knobs, and many commercial locks. However, some locks may need replacement if they're severely worn, damaged, or use proprietary key systems. Our St. Louis locksmiths will assess your locks and recommend the most cost-effective solution - rekeying when possible, replacement when necessary.

How much can I save with lock rekeying versus replacement?

Lock rekeying in St. Louis is typically much more cost-effective than lock replacement, often providing substantial savings while delivering equivalent security benefits. The exact cost depends on lock type, number of locks, and job complexity. We provide transparent, competitive pricing with no hidden fees for all rekeying services.

When should I rekey my locks instead of replacing them?

Rekey your locks when moving to a new home, after losing keys, when ending relationships, or when you want to eliminate access for former employees or tenants. Rekeying is ideal when your locks are in good working condition but you need new keys for security. It's the most cost-effective way to ensure only you have access to your St. Louis property.

Do you provide lock rekeying service for businesses in St. Louis?

Yes, we provide commercial lock rekeying service for businesses throughout St. Louis including offices, retail stores, restaurants, and warehouses. We can create master key systems, rekey multiple locks to work with the same key, or provide different keys for different access levels. Our commercial rekeying service minimizes business downtime and provides enhanced security.
