Can every brand be keyed alike?

No. Locks need compatible keyways and working cylinders. We confirm compatibility before work begins.

Is rekeying cheaper than replacement?

Often, but not always. Condition, brand compatibility, and desired upgrades change the estimate.

New keys, same hardware

Rekeying is often the cleanest way to reset access without replacing every lock on the property.

Rekey compatible locks after a move, staffing change, roommate turnover, lost key, or property management handoff.

Compatible cylinders can usually be rekeyed to new keys while keeping the existing hardware.
We can key multiple doors alike when hardware allows it.
If a lock is worn out, replacement may be the better long-term move.

For rekeying work, we consider access, hardware condition, and the least invasive practical option.
