4.9 · Licensed, bonded & insured

When you need Lock Rekey in Newark, you want a locksmith who answers fast, shows up quickly and fixes the problem right the first time. Bay Area Lock And Key delivers exactly that — fully-mobile lock rekey service backed by licensed, insured technicians and honest, upfront pricing.

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.
