Professional Lock Rekeying Services
Keep your existing locks and simply change which keys can open them. Quick Key provides professional lock rekeying for homes, rental properties, apartments, and businesses throughout Contra Costa County.
Change Your Keys Without Replacing Your Locks
Lock rekeying allows you to keep your existing lock hardware while changing which keys can open it. Quick Key provides professional lock rekeying for homes, apartments, rental properties, offices, and commercial buildings throughout Contra Costa County.
Rekeying is an ideal solution after moving into a new property, losing a key, changing tenants, ending a relationship with a contractor or employee, or anytime you are unsure who may still have access. The internal pins are reset so the old keys no longer work, and new keys are provided for the updated locks.
In many cases, several locks can be rekeyed to work with one matching key, making access more convenient while improving control over your property. Before beginning, we inspect the existing locks, confirm compatibility, and explain the service and pricing clearly.

Have questions about rekeying your locks? Here are answers to the most common questions homeowners, property managers, and business owners ask before scheduling lock rekeying service with Quick Key.
