About the service
Professional Lock Rekey in Sylmar
You just got the keys to a place up toward the Sylmar foothills, and the previous owner handed over a jar of them, none labeled. Or the back unit's last tenant moved out and never returned every copy. Either way, you don't really know who can still walk in. Rekeying settles that without replacing a single lock.
Rekey keeps the deadbolts and knobs you already own; we swap the pins inside so the old keys quit working and a fresh set takes over. For most Sylmar homes, the older single-story ranch houses, the tract homes near Glenoaks Park, the horse properties higher up, that beats buying new hardware. Call Locksmith HQ 24/7 at (818) 398-9391.

What to expect
What Happens When You Call Us in Sylmar
When we arrive we walk the doors with you first, front deadbolt, the entry knob, the side gate, that sliding-door latch people forget. We check which cylinders rekey cleanly (most Kwikset, Schlage, and Weiser we handle on the spot) and which are worn enough that replacement makes more sense. Then we pull each one, re-pin it, and cut you a fresh set.
A typical Sylmar house, three or four cylinders, runs under an hour. We cover the north end of the Valley, from the flats along Foothill toward San Fernando, and we work 24/7, so a 2 a.m. lost-key call gets the same crew as a weekday afternoon. Dry Santa Ana dust gums up foothill locks; if a cylinder fights the pins, we'll say straight whether a rekey or a swap is the smarter spend.

Common questions
FAQ
Should I rekey or just replace the locks in my Sylmar home?
If your deadbolts and knobs still turn smoothly and you like the hardware, rekeying is the cheaper move, we keep the locks and change the pins. We only steer you toward replacement when a cylinder is worn, corroded, or you want to step up to a higher-security key. On most Sylmar houses the hardware is fine, so we rekey.
Can you put every door on one key?
Usually, yes. If your front, back, side gate, and garage locks are compatible brands, we can key them all to a single key so you carry one instead of five. Mixed hardware sometimes needs a cylinder swapped to match, and we'll tell you the cost before we do it.
Will the old keys really stop working after a rekey?
That's the entire point. Once we re-pin a cylinder, any key cut to the old pattern won't open it, the previous owner's set, the copy a past tenant kept, the spare hidden by the door. Only the new keys we hand you will work.
How much does a rekey cost per cylinder in Sylmar?
We price per cylinder because a one-door condo and a four-door house up in the foothills aren't the same job. Call (818) 398-9391 with a rough count of your locks and we'll give you a straight per-cylinder number before we drive out, no surprise line items when we finish.
