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.

How We Master Lock Rekeying in Newport

1

Schedule at Your Convenience

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.

3

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.

4

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.

Common Lock Rekeying Questions in Newport

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.

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.

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.

I just bought a new home. Should I change the locks? expand_more

Maintaining 100% key control is the primary objective of any new property acquisition. Because you cannot verify the chain of custody for existing keys—potentially distributed to contractors, real estate agents, or previous associates—we recommend a professional rekey as a Day 1 security priority. This is the most efficient method to ensure your family possesses the only authorized credentials.

Does lock installation require drilling new holes? expand_more

It depends on your door. If replacing an existing lock, usually no new holes are needed. For new installations, we drill precise holes that won't weaken your door. We also check that your door jamb is properly reinforced.

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.
