Lock Rekey in Lafayette, CA

Rekey your locks so old keys stop working — a fast, affordable alternative to replacing hardware. Serving all of Lafayette and Contra Costa County.

4.9 · Licensed, bonded & insured

Looking for reliable Lock Rekey in Lafayette? Bay Area Lock And Key brings the workshop to you with fast response, damage-free techniques and transparent pricing, so a stressful lock problem becomes a quick, professional fix.

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.

Why Lafayette Chooses Bay Area Lock And Key for Lock Rekey

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

How Our Lock Rekey Process Works

We keep lock rekey straightforward so you always know what comes next. A typical Lafayette job follows four simple steps:

  1. 1

    Identify the locks

    We confirm your locks are rekeyable and count the cylinders.

  2. 2

    Rekey the pins

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

  3. 3

    Key alike (optional)

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

  4. 4

    Test & hand off

    We test each lock and hand you the new keys.

What to expect when we arrive

From the moment we pull up to your Lafayette 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.
