Lock Rekeying Services 

A lot of people are surprised when we tell them they don’t always need a door lock replacement to secure a property. If the lock on the door is still working fine, you can often just change the way the locking mechanism reads the key. That’s all door lock rekeying is. Same lock on the door, brand-new key pattern inside it, and the old keys become completely useless.

It’s one of the quickest ways to secure a residential property after moving in, and landlords use it constantly between tenants. We do this sort of work all over London, and it’s usually done in less time than it takes to make a cup of tea.

Rekeying is tidy, low-cost, and very effective. And when the lock is good quality, it makes far more sense than throwing out the whole thing for no reason.

Rekeying is the simple option when you want a fresh start. Most people come to us when they’ve:

• just moved into a new home

• lost a set of keys

• taken over a property where you’re not sure who else has access

• had a tenant or contractor who may still have a copy

• got a few doors they’d like to run on one key

When there’s nothing wrong with the hardware, rekeying is the neat, practical option.

When the lock is worn, broken, or out of date, that’s when a full replacement makes more sense — and we’ll let you know honestly which way you’re better off going.

This is popular with homeowners and landlords who don’t want a pocket full of keys. We can rekey several locks so everything runs off one key.

It’s useful for:

• front and back doors

• side entrances

• garage doors

• mixed rental properties

You still get the option of separate keys for private areas — but for everyday access, one key is all you need.

Ideal for New Owners & Recently Moved Households

When you pick up the keys to a new place, you have no idea who else has had copies over the years. Builders, cleaners, neighbours, old tenants… the list goes on. Rekeying wipes all that out instantly.

It’s also much cheaper than changing the locks throughout the whole house. And because we’re only altering the internal pins, there’s no door damage, no filling holes, no adjusting plates — just a clean reset of your key security.

We rekey locks for both residential and commercial clients. We’ve done countless between us over the past few years.

Our efficient, professional rekeying services mean you done need to replace the entire lock, just the locking mechanism.
