WHEN REKEYING MAKES SENSE
Keep the hardware. Change who has access.
Rekeying is often the right move when the lock itself is fine but you no longer trust every key that may be in circulation.
Roommate or tenant change
Reset access after someone moves out without replacing every lock.
Lost or unaccounted-for keys
Stop a missing key from continuing to operate the lock.
Relationship or household change
Take control of who can enter without changing the appearance of your doors.
Too many different keys
Where compatible, key several doors alike and simplify the key ring.

What homeowners usually ask first.
What's the difference between rekeying and replacing locks?
Rekeying changes the pins inside the lock so the old keys stop working while the existing hardware stays in place. Replacing a lock means installing new hardware. If your locks are in good condition, rekeying is often the simpler option.
How much does a residential rekey cost?
APD publishes rekey pricing at $12.50 per cylinder when a working key is available and $20 per cylinder when there is no working key. Additional keys are $3.50 each. Trip and labor charges may also apply depending on the service location and work required.
How long does a home rekey take?
Many ordinary residential rekeys can be completed in one visit. The exact time depends on the number of cylinders, lock condition, keyway compatibility and whether any hardware needs repair or replacement.
Can you make several doors use the same key?
Often, yes. When the locks use compatible keyways, APD can usually key them alike so one key operates multiple doors.
Do I need to buy new locks?
Usually not when the existing hardware is serviceable. If a lock is worn, damaged or incompatible with the rest of the home, APD will explain the options before changing the scope.
