Change or Rekey Locks

Home security is mostly done quietly, in daylight, by the people who live there. Rekey when keys are unaccounted for.

  1. Hands holding a lock cylinder and a ring of keys above a worn workbench with another cylinder and loose keys. — Lock Rekeying, Toronto
    Lock RekeyingThe builder handed over your new home with a stack of identical keys, and you know the framing crew, the painters and the flooring installers all used a construction key during the build. The doors are brand new, but…
  2. Person holding a silver-colored lock beside an open wooden door with exposed circular holes and a latch at its edge. — Deadbolt Installation, Toronto

    Gate & Building Entry LocksBetween the front gate, the side gate and the one behind the shed, there are three different padlocks, three different keys, and a growing pile of duplicates in a kitchen drawer that nobody can match to the right lock…
  7. Detached threaded cam lock and mounting washer on a workbench in front of closed mail compartments. — Mailbox Lock Replacement, Toronto
    Mailbox Lock ReplacementYou've just moved in, and the mailbox compartment in the lobby came with a single key the previous owner mailed back separately, or never handed over at all. As far as anyone can tell, the lock still answers to a…
