About the service
Professional Lock Rekey in Thousand Oaks
You just closed on a place on one of the oak-lined streets above the Conejo Valley, or you handed a tenant the keys last week — and you have no idea how many copies of the front door key exist. The previous owner, their teenager, a cleaner, the neighbor who watered plants. Rekeying keeps your deadbolts and knobs but resets the pins inside, so every old key stops turning.
Because we reuse the hardware already on your doors, it runs cheaper than new locks, and the Kwikset or Schlage bolts on most Conejo Valley homes rarely need replacing. Moved in near the 101, lost a copy, or tired of a drawer full of mystery keys? A rekey puts the house back on keys only you hold.

What to expect
What Happens When You Call Us in Thousand Oaks
When our locksmith pulls up, the first move is to look at what's actually on each door — the front deadbolt, the garage side entry, a bolt on the back slider. Most Thousand Oaks homes mix Kwikset and Schlage, and both rekey right there at the door. We take out each cylinder, rebuild the pin stack to match one fresh-cut key, and turn it a dozen times before moving on.
We work the whole Conejo Valley — Thousand Oaks, Newbury Park, out toward Westlake Village — and most rekeys are same-day. A typical three or four door house is done in under an hour on site. Landlord between tenants, or just out of escrow? We'll meet you at the property, put every lock on a single key, and hand you the only copies. Call (818) 398-9391.

Common questions
FAQ
Should I rekey or replace the locks?
If the deadbolts and knobs are solid — and on most Thousand Oaks homes they are — rekeying is the smarter call. You keep good hardware and just change the pins so old keys quit working. We only steer you toward replacement when a lock is worn out, damaged, or you want a different type entirely, like a smart deadbolt.
Can you get all my doors onto one key?
Usually yes, as long as the locks share a keyway — most Kwikset-to-Kwikset or Schlage-to-Schlage sets combine cleanly. If your house runs a mix of brands, we can often swap a cylinder or two so the whole place opens with a single key. We confirm what's possible once we see the doors.
Will the old keys really stop working?
Yes. Rekeying changes the pin heights inside the cylinder, so the moment we finish, any key cut to the old pattern won't turn — the copy the previous owner kept, the spare a tenant never returned, all of them. Only the new keys we cut for you will open the door.
How is rekeying priced?
It's a service call plus a charge per cylinder, so one lock is cheap and a whole house is priced by how many doors you have. Rekeying comes in well under the cost of new locks because we reuse your existing hardware. Tell us the door count over the phone and we'll give you a real number before we head out.
