WHAT IS REKEYING A LOCK?
rekeying a lock is removing it off the door and pretty much dissecting it completely so we can replace the pins with new ones and therefor the old key wont work anymore and we issue you a new key.
If you live in Boise Idaho and looking for a locksmith to rekey the locks, or bought a house and moved there then it's a good idea to rekey the locks. In this blog we will go over the Top 5 Benefits For Rekeying Locks. 1: You don't want the previous home owner to have access to your home, and you don't know who else they gave keys to.
2: Sometimes keys would be handed to contractors or gardeners, and those keys are never returned.
3: You bought your home and you realize that every door has a different key to it, Keys & Locksmith Boise can Rekey all of the locks to work on the same key (as long as they're the same keyway) and it makes it really convenience of having 1 key to each door of the home.
4: Another convenience option when rekeying locks is going with a master key system so you have your master key that opens every door to the house including the backyard gates or closets while the Sub master key can only open the backyard gates or specific doors, so the gardener or pool guy can have access to the yard but not the house, you can read more on it here https://www.keysandlocksmithboise.com/master-key-tier-system
5: Cost - it's way cheaper to rekey the locks VS changing them out, even if you bought new locks you would rather them work on the same key so then you also have to pay for the rekey job. The only time Keys & Locksmith Boise will recommend changing the locks is if they're really old or if they are really bad security locks. If you have any questions don't hesitate to call us, even if you decide to change some locks we can always point you at the right direction.
