Frequently Asked Questions
How much does an emergency rekey cost in Arlington?
Rekeying typically runs $25-$45 per cylinder plus a service-call fee, so a standard home with four exterior locks lands around $150-$240 all in. After-hours and same-day-emergency rekeys carry a modest premium for the immediate response. We quote the total before starting and never charge per pin.
Should I rekey or replace my locks after a break-in?
Rekey if the locks still function and you simply need every old key to stop working — it is faster and 40-60% cheaper. Replace if the lock was forced, the cylinder is damaged, or you are upgrading to a higher-security deadbolt. After a burglary we inspect the hardware on site and tell you honestly which doors need a rekey versus a full lock change.
Can you rekey my house the same day I lost my keys?
Yes. Lost-key rekeys are a same-day mobile service across Arlington. Because we change the internal pins, the lost or stolen key stops working the moment we finish — you do not have to wonder whether someone has a copy. Most homes are fully rekeyed in under an hour once the tech arrives.
I just went through a breakup or roommate move-out — can you make sure they cannot get in?
Yes, and it is one of the most common reasons people rekey. Rekeying invalidates every existing key, including any copy a former roommate, ex, or contractor may still hold, without the cost of buying new locks. We can rekey every exterior door to a single new key the same day so you control who has access from that moment on.
