Solving Your Lock Rekeying Challenges in Kennett Square

You Just Moved In—Who Has Keys?

The sellers, their realtor, old roommates, contractors, cleaners, neighbors with 'emergency' copies—you have no idea how many keys exist. The only way to know you control access is to rekey.

Lost Keys = Lost Security

Those keys you lost last month? Someone might find them. If your address is on your keychain (or findable from your car registration), you have a problem. Rekeying makes lost keys worthless.

Someone Who Had Access Shouldn't Anymore

Roommate moved out, relationship ended, employee let go. Asking for keys back doesn't ensure they didn't make copies. Rekeying is the only way to be certain.

You've Handed Out Too Many Copies

Over the years, you gave keys to family, friends, pet sitters, house sitters, Airbnb guests... Now you've lost track. Rekeying gives you a fresh count: you have all the keys.

Contractor or Service Worker Had Access

The Kwikey Protocol for Lock Rekeying

Schedule at Your Convenience

Book online or by phone. We offer professional appointments when available, or schedule at a time that works for you.

We Come to You—Or You Come to Our Shop

Mobile service to your location, or bring your locks to our Wilmington shop if you prefer. Either way works.

Inspect and Quote Before We Start

We examine each lock to confirm it's in good condition for rekeying, explain the process, and give you a transparent diagnostic quote.

Precision Rekeying

We reconfigure the internal pin pattern so the lock only responds to new keys. The old keys? Completely useless metal.

New Keys, Full Testing

You receive your new keys (as many copies as you need), and we test every lock to ensure smooth operation. If you want one key for all doors, we set that up too.

Expertly Resolved FAQ: Lock Rekeying

How many keys do I get when you rekey my locks? expand_more

Standard rekeying includes 2 new keys per lock. Need more? We can cut additional copies on-site at a small per-key charge. If you have multiple locks, we can key them all alike so one key opens everything.

Should I rekey or replace my locks? expand_more

Rekeying is a precision procedure that alters the internal logic of your lock cylinder, rendering old keys useless while maintaining your existing hardware. We recommend replacement only if your hardware is structurally compromised, mechanically fatigued, or if you require an upgrade to high-security or smart-locking platforms.

Do you bring hardware with you or do I need to purchase locks? expand_more

Our mobile units are stocked with a comprehensive inventory of Grade 1 and Grade 2 locks, deadbolts, and high-security hardware. While we carry components from industry-leading brands for same-day resolution, we can also source specialized hardware to meet your unique architectural or security requirements.

Are smart locks as secure as traditional deadbolts? expand_more

Quality smart locks from brands like Schlage and Yale are just as secure mechanically as traditional locks. They add convenience features like remote access and activity logs. We recommend models with auto-lock and tamper alerts for maximum security.

What if I'm not satisfied with the work? expand_more

We provide a 90-day service commitment on all workmanship and hardware installations. If you encounter any operational issues during this period, we will return to your location for a diagnostic assessment and resolution as part of our service pledge. Your security and peace of mind are our primary operational priorities.

Do you come to my location or do I come to you? expand_more

We maintain a fully mobile fleet of professional locksmith laboratories. Each unit is equipped with precision machinery for on-site key cutting, diagnostic computers for automotive programming, and a comprehensive inventory of high-security hardware to resolve your request in a single visit.
