Is it cheaper to rekey locks?
Did you know, if you have good locks, it can be pretty inexpensive to rekey your home or business. One of the main benefits is that it can be done without replacing the lock. This makes it a more affordable option than having to replace it because it only takes around 15 min depending on the lock.
This is how rekeying a lock works.
Rekeying is the process of modifying it so that a different key can open the door while rendering the old key useless. It can go into the lock but it wont turn it or unlock the door. Rekeying is done by changing the configuration inside the lock. You’re still using the same lock. If this sounds like a good option for you give Mr. Locksmith Halifax a call today!

Rekeying vs Changing Your Locks
Missing or lost keys can jeopardize the safety of your home or business. Many people don’t know that you don’t need to replace your locks. Rekeying often provides the same level of protection for a fraction of the cost.
We hear horror stories all the time when people either lose their keys or someone stole them, just to gain access to their homes. They can sneak in when you’re not there endangering your things, sometimes they don’t realize your home and that can endanger the people inside as well. This is why we always recommend that you address the problem of missing house keys before it is too late.
Missing keys can threaten the security of your property but that doesn’t mean you need to replace all your locks. Instead a good alternative that will save you a lot of money is having your lock rekeyed instead. Almost all deadbolts, handle sets, and door locks can be rekeyed. A typical rekeying can costs around $100 while replacing the lock can range between $250-$500.
Rekey House Lock Halifax
A rekey is when the internal mechanisms inside the lock are rearranged to match a set of new keys.
This is the most efficient way to secure your home after your keys have been misplaced. Saves both time and money.
Door locks have 5-6 pins inside the cylinder which align with the key. This creates a sheer line, allowing the cylinder to spin and the door to open. The rekey process will realign those pins to match a new key. If you choose Mr. Locksmith to rekeys your locks, we will give you 5 keys free of charge.
We recommend rekeying your locks if a key is stolen, lost, or goes missing. This is the most effective way to ensure that someone doesn’t have access to your stuff.
