What a rekey involves
On site in Valley Village, the job runs:
- We test every door with the new key and, if you asked, key them all alike.
- We check each lock turns smoothly afterward, since a tired cylinder can be felt during a rekey.
- If a lock is too worn to hold a rekey well, we flag it and talk through a change instead.
When people call us for this in Valley Village
- A tenant, roommate, or contractor moved on and had a key.
- Your doors take different keys and you want one key for all of them.
- A key was lost or stolen and you want the old one made useless.

Where we are straight with you
A rekey only helps where the hardware is still sound. On a lock that already binds or is corroded, re-pinning buys little, and we would rather point you to a change than take payment for a fix that will not last. Here in Valley Village, we say so before we start, not after.
How we keep it straight
If you are in Valley Village and stuck, call and we will talk through your options before anyone commits to anything.
Before we open a door, start a car or make a key, we confirm you have the right to be there — photo ID plus proof of residence, ownership, or authorization. It protects you as much as it protects us.
We do not post a flat price here because the real number depends on the hardware, the situation, and the time of day. You get a clear quote before any work starts, and the total in writing before we begin.
Our arrival estimate is tied to our actual location and the roads that day. If something changes it, we tell you instead of leaving you guessing.

Questions people ask
Do I need to be there?
We need the authorized owner or resident to confirm identity and access, so yes, someone with the right to the property should be on site.
Is rekeying cheaper than new locks?
Usually, yes, because we reuse your hardware and only change the pins. We quote both options in Valley Village if you are weighing a rekey against a full lock change.
