Lock change & rekeying NYC
Lock replacement and rekeying for your apartment, house, office or storefront.
When should you change a lock?
Consider reviewing access after a move, missing keys, damage or a change in authorized users. A lock that is difficult to turn may also have a door alignment or wear issue. Explain the problem so we can assess whether repair, rekeying or replacement makes sense.
Rekeying versus lock replacement
Rekeying changes the key that operates a compatible existing cylinder. Replacement installs different hardware. Whether rekeying is possible depends on the cylinder, its condition and available components. Replacement may be necessary when hardware is damaged, unsuitable or cannot support the intended setup.
Choosing compatible door hardware
The door thickness, existing cutouts, frame condition and type of building influence hardware choices. For rented property or commercial doors, confirm owner or building approval and applicable exit requirements. We review the fit and function before the work begins.
