Your Local Authority for Lock Rekeying in Pike Creek

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.

Common Lock Rekeying Questions in Pike Creek

How can I secure my sliding glass door? expand_more

Sliding doors are vulnerable points. We recommend a security bar in the track, anti-lift pins in the frame, and a sliding door lock that engages at multiple points. We install all of these and can assess your specific door.

Is it better to rekey or replace locks in a new home? expand_more

Rekeying is often a smart choice for new homeowners, as it changes the internal pins so old keys no longer work. However, if the hardware is damaged or outdated, replacing the entire lock with high-security deadbolts is recommended for maximum protection.

Are your locksmiths background-verified? expand_more

Yes, every technician on our team undergoes rigorous multi-stage background verification and carries comprehensive professional insurance. We prioritize your security by ensuring our staff are verified experts in residential, commercial, and automotive lock systems.

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.

Can you install smart locks on standard residential doors? expand_more

Yes, we specialize in retrofitting standard doors with modern smart locks. We can help you choose a compatible system that integrates with your home automation while ensuring the physical installation is secure and professional.

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.
