Lock Rekeying in Miami, FL
Keep your existing hardware and make every old key stop working with lock rekeying in Miami for homes, rentals and businesses.
Change Who Has Access Without Changing Your Locks
Rekeying changes the pin arrangement inside a lock cylinder so that the old keys no longer operate it, while the lock itself stays on the door. It’s one of the most practical security steps after moving into a new house or condo, changing roommates, or losing a set of keys somewhere between Coral Gables and Downtown.
Fast Locksmith FL rekeys deadbolts, knob locks and lever sets on site. If you want fewer keys to carry, we can often set several exterior doors to work with one key, as long as the locks are compatible. If a lock is too worn to rekey reliably, we’ll tell you and explain the options.

Good Reasons to Rekey
You just moved in
Previous owners, tenants, contractors and agents may all still have keys. Rekeying gives you a clean start.
A key was lost or stolen
If keys go missing with an address attached, rekeying closes that gap quickly.
Staff or tenant changes
Landlords and business owners rekey after turnover so former occupants can’t get back in.
Too many keys
Rekeying several doors to a single key simplifies daily life when the locks allow it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is rekeying the same as replacing a lock?
No. Rekeying keeps the existing lock and changes only the internal pins, so old keys stop working. Replacement swaps the hardware itself.
Can all my doors use the same key?
Often, yes, if the locks share a compatible keyway. We’ll check your hardware and let you know.
Should I rekey after buying a home?
It’s one of the first things we recommend, since you can’t know how many copies of the old keys exist.
Do you rekey business locks too?
Yes. We rekey commercial locks as well, including after employee turnover. See our commercial locksmith page for more.
