Common Reasons to Change Your Locks
From moving in to upgrading security, here are the most common reasons people call us to replace their locks.
Old or outdated locks
Your locks are 15+ years old, use a standard keyway that's easy to pick or bump, and don't meet today's security standards. Older locks have weaker springs, softer brass, and fewer security pins — making them vulnerable to break-ins. We replace them with modern, high-security locksets.
Just moved in
You closed on a new home and have no idea who has a copy of the key — the previous owner, their neighbors, a real estate agent, a contractor, a housekeeper. Changing the locks (not just rekeying) gives you brand-new hardware and total peace of mind that no one else has access.
After a break-in or attempted entry
If your home was broken into or someone tried to force your lock, the lock may be damaged — bent pins, a scratched cylinder, a weakened bolt. Even if it still works, it's compromised. We replace damaged locks with stronger, more secure hardware and reinforce the strike plate.
Keys lost or stolen and lock is old
If your keys are lost or stolen and your locks are already aging, it makes more sense to replace the entire lock than to rekey it. You get new hardware, new keys, and upgraded security all at once — instead of putting new pins in an old, worn-out lock.
Tenant or roommate turnover
A tenant moved out and didn't return all the keys — or you're not sure they did. Changing the locks ensures the previous occupant can't walk back in. For rental properties, we can also install locks that allow quick changeovers between tenants.
Want to upgrade to high-security locks
You want bump-proof, pick-resistant locks with restricted keyways — keys that can't be copied at a hardware store without your authorization. We install high-security locks from Medeco, Mul-T-Lock, Schlage Primus, and other trusted brands.

- You just moved into a new home and don't know who has keys

What Happens If You Ignore It
Old, damaged, or compromised locks don't protect your home the way you think they do — and ignoring them puts your safety at risk.
Old locks are easy to pick and bump
Standard locks from 10+ years ago lack security pins and are vulnerable to bump keys — a technique that opens a lock in seconds using a specially cut key. If your locks are old, they're not protecting you the way you think they are.
Unknown key copies put your home at risk
When you move in, you have no idea how many copies of your keys are out there. Every day you don't change the locks is a day someone you don't know could have access to your home.
A damaged lock fails when you need it most
If your lock was damaged during a break-in attempt, it may work now but fail later — potentially leaving you locked out or, worse, unable to secure your home. Damaged locks need to be replaced, not ignored.
A weak strike plate invites kick-ins
The most common break-in method is kicking the door near the lock. Standard strike plates with short screws offer almost no resistance. Without a reinforced strike plate with 3-inch screws, your door can be kicked in with a single blow.
How We Solve It
Our technicians use professional tools and techniques to resolve the problem quickly and correctly.
Full Lock Replacement
We remove your old lock and install a brand-new, high-quality lockset — deadbolt, knob, or lever handle. You get new hardware, new keys, and a fresh start with full control over who has access.
High-Security Lock Upgrades
We install high-security locks from Medeco, Mul-T-Lock, Schlage Primus, and Kwikset SmartKey. These locks are bump-proof, pick-resistant, and use restricted keyways — keys can't be copied without your authorization.
Deadbolt Installation
If your door only has a knob lock, we add a deadbolt for real security. A deadbolt extends a solid bolt into the door frame — far more resistant to kicking and forced entry than a spring-latch knob lock.
Strike Plate Reinforcement
The strike plate is the metal plate in the door frame where the bolt enters. We replace standard strike plates with reinforced, 3-inch screw strike plates that resist kick-ins — the most common forced-entry method.
Smart Lock Installation
Going keyless? We install and program smart locks from August, Yale, Schlage, Kwikset, and more. Enter with a code, your phone, or your fingerprint — and never worry about lost keys again.
Rekeying (When Replacement Isn't Needed)
If your locks are in good condition but you just need new keys, rekeying is faster and cheaper than full replacement. We'll assess your locks and honestly recommend rekeying vs. replacement — no upselling.
