Frequently Asked Questions
How much to rekey a whole house?
Most Austin homes have 3-5 locks. At $75-$125 per lock, a full house typically costs $285-$475. This is 60-70% cheaper than replacing hardware. We offer 10-15% discounts for 3+ locks.
Difference between Rekeying vs Replacing?
Rekeying keeps your existing hardware but changes the internal pins so old keys stop working. Replacing means brand new hardware. Rekeying is better unless your locks are broken or ugly.
Can one key open every door?
Yes! That's the main benefit. As long as your locks share the same keyway (e.g., all Schlage or all Kwikset), we can make one key work for front, back, side, and garage doors.
How long does it take?
About 10-15 minutes per lock. A whole house usually takes 45-90 minutes total. We can usually come the same day you call.
Does rekeying damage the door?
No. We remove the lock cylinder cleanly, re-pin it, and reinstall it. There is no drilling or damage to your door or frame.
