About the service
Professional Lock Rekey in Chatsworth
Out here in the northwest corner of the Valley, where the streets back up against the Santa Susana rocks and a lot of the houses are older ranch-style places, we get the same call constantly: somebody just closed on a home and has no idea who else holds a key. The previous owner, their gardener, a real estate agent, the neighbor who watered the plants. Rekeying solves that. We keep your existing deadbolts and knobs and re-pin the cylinders so every old key stops turning, and you walk away with fresh keys nobody else has copies of.
It is the practical move for most Chatsworth homes because the hardware on these properties is usually decent quality already. No reason to throw it out. You are paying us to change what the lock recognizes, not to replace a lock that works fine.

What to expect
What Happens When You Call Us in Chatsworth
When we pull up, the first thing we do is count your doors and look at what brand of lock is on each one. A typical Chatsworth house has a front deadbolt, a handle set, a side gate or laundry-room door, and sometimes a separate garage entry. We check whether they all take the same keyway, because that decides whether we can put the whole house on one key or whether a couple of cylinders need their pins matched to a new single key.
Each cylinder comes apart, the old pins come out, and we set new pins to the cut of a fresh key. We test every door open and locked before we leave, hand you the keys, and confirm the old ones are dead. Most single-family rekeys run under an hour. We cover Chatsworth around the clock, so a lost-key situation at night gets handled the same as a daytime move-in. Call (818) 398-9391.

Common questions
FAQ
Should I rekey or just replace the locks?
For most Chatsworth homes, rekey. If your deadbolts and handles are solid and just have an unknown number of keys out there, re-pinning them is cheaper and faster than buying new hardware. We only steer you toward replacement when a lock is worn out, damaged, or you want to step up to a higher-security model. Otherwise we keep what is on the door and change what it recognizes.
Can you put all my doors on one key?
Usually, yes. As long as your locks share a compatible keyway, we can pin every cylinder to a single key so the front deadbolt, the handle set, the side gate, and the garage entry all open with the same one. If one door is a different brand or keyway, we will tell you on the spot whether it can be matched or whether that one stays separate.
Will the old keys really stop working after a rekey?
Yes. That is the whole point. Once we re-pin a cylinder to a new key, every previous key for that lock is useless. So the agent, the old owner, or anyone who got a copy during the move can no longer get in. We test each door with the new key and confirm the old ones are dead before we pack up.
How is rekey priced, per door or flat?
It is generally priced per cylinder, since the work is done lock by lock. There is a service call to come out to Chatsworth, then a per-cylinder rate for each lock we re-pin. Putting several doors on one key is more economical per door than rekeying them to separate keys. Call (818) 398-9391 with your door count and we will give you a clear number.
