Lock replacement
Lock replacement: a new lock on the door.
The hardware comes off and a new lock goes on. It makes sense when a lock is worn or damaged, or when you want a different kind of lock altogether.

Rekey or replace?
Rekey
The lock stays on the door; its inside is changed to fit a new key. A common choice after a move or a lost key, when the hardware itself is still sound.

Questions
What people ask before they call.
Short, honest answers. Anything else, ask on the phone: (708) 696-8350. Or read all the questions.
Should I rekey my locks or replace them?
Rekeying changes the inside of a lock so the old keys no longer work, while the hardware on the door stays the same. It’s a common choice after a move or a lost key. Replacing makes sense when a lock is worn or damaged, or when you want a different kind of lock, such as a high-security or keypad lock. Describe the situation and we’ll talk through both.
How much will it cost?
It depends on the job: the type of lock or vehicle, what has to be done, and when. We don’t post prices on this page, because a number without those details wouldn’t mean much. Ask for the price when you call, and confirm it before you agree to the work.
