What is Rekey Service?
Many people get confused about the word "rekey" and what it is. Rekeying is the process where a locksmith changes the internal mechanisms of a lock so that the original key will not work with the lock. The lock is reconfigured to work with new keys that are meant for the newly rekeyed lock.

With the professional level of service, the task is done very quickly and affordably, which makes it a viable option compared to changing locks.
