Overview
What the job usually involves
Most home calls in Mountain View fall into three groups. Someone can't get in. Someone has too many old keys floating around. Or a lock has simply worn out. Each one has a different fix, and the least expensive fix is not always a new lock.
Rekeying swaps the pins inside the cylinder so old keys stop working while the hardware stays on the door. It suits move-ins, lost keys and ex-roommates. A lock change makes sense when the hardware is damaged, very old, or you want a higher grade.

FAQ
Residential locksmith questions
Is rekeying cheaper than replacing my locks?
Usually, yes. Rekeying keeps the lock body and changes only the pins, so you pay mainly for labor. The price list shows rekeying starting at $19.00 plus the $29 service call fee; the final figure depends on how many cylinders you have.
Will you need proof that I live there?
Expect to be asked for ID or something that ties you to the address before a home is opened. It protects you as much as anyone.
Can you make my existing keys work on a new lock?
Often. If the new lock uses a compatible keyway, it can be pinned to your current key. Ask when you call.
