Lock Rekey in Gilroy, CA

Rekey your locks so old keys stop working — a fast, affordable alternative to replacing hardware. Serving all of Gilroy and Santa Clara County.

4.9 · Licensed, bonded & insured

Lock Rekey in Gilroy should be simple: one call, a fast arrival, and a job done properly. That is how Bay Area Lock And Key works every day, serving Gilroy homes, businesses and drivers with mobile, on-site service.

Rekeying changes the internal pins of a lock so it works with a brand-new key and the old keys no longer function — all without replacing the lock itself. It's the fastest, most affordable way to take control of who can enter, which is why it's the first thing we recommend after you move into a home, lose a key, or turn over a rental.

Because rekeying reuses your existing hardware, it costs a fraction of buying new locks and takes only minutes per cylinder. We can also key multiple locks alike so one key runs your whole home or business. If a lock is worn out or you want an upgrade, we'll tell you honestly when replacement makes more sense than a rekey.

  • Rekeying of existing locks
  • Keyed-alike setups
  • New working keys

  • Advice on rekey vs. replacement

    We re-pin each cylinder to a new key code on-site.

    We can set every lock to open with one shared key.

  4. 4

    We test each lock and hand you the new keys.

What to expect when we arrive

From the moment we pull up to your Gilroy address, our goal is to make the experience easy. Our technician introduces themselves, evaluates the job, and reconfirms your upfront price. We work efficiently and cleanly, keep you in the loop, and finish by testing the result with you and sharing a few tips to avoid future trouble. Courteous, transparent service is the standard on every call.

A little prevention goes a long way. Once we have handled the immediate need, we are glad to point out simple steps that reduce the odds of a repeat — a spare key kept somewhere safe, a small hardware upgrade on a vulnerable door, or a quick adjustment that keeps a lock operating smoothly.
