About the service
Professional Lock Rekey in Ventura
You bought a place near the coast, or took over a rental a few streets back from the water, and the previous owner left you a fat ring of keys with no idea how many copies exist. That's when most people in Ventura call for a rekey. A cleaner, a contractor, the last two tenants, any of them could still have a key you'll never get back.
Rekeying keeps your deadbolts and knobs and just re-pins the cylinders so every old key quits working. It's the sensible fix here because a lot of the housing is older and the hardware itself is often fine, it's only the key control that's gone. Replacing every lock rarely makes sense.

What to expect
What Happens When You Call Us in Ventura
When we arrive, we check whether the cylinders will take a rekey. Most standard deadbolts and knobs do, we pull the lock, dump the old pins, set new ones to a fresh key, and cut copies on the spot. Salt air near the beach can corrode a cylinder past re-pinning; if a lock is seized or worn, we'll say so and swap just that one.
A typical house of four to six doors takes under an hour, and we can key every one to a single key so you're not juggling a ring. We cover the whole city, the 93001, 93003, and 93004 areas, the hillside streets, and the rentals off the 101 and SR-126, usually the same day you call. Nights and weekends too.

Common questions
FAQ
Should I rekey or replace my locks?
Rekey if the lock works fine and you just want old keys dead, new tenant, lost copy, or a fresh move-in. It's cheaper because you keep the hardware. Replace when the deadbolt is worn, corroded from the salt air, or you want a higher grade. On arrival we look at what you've got and give you the honest call before touching anything.
Can you put all my doors on one key?
Yes. As long as the locks share a brand or keyway, we key-alike every exterior door to a single key, front, back, side, and the garage entry. If you've got a mix of brands, we can usually still get you down to one key by rekeying or swapping the odd cylinder. Most Ventura homes we do end up on one key.
Do the old keys really stop working?
That's the whole point. Once we re-pin the cylinder, any key cut to the old pinning won't turn it, the contractor's copy, the ex-roommate's, the ones you never accounted for. Only the new keys we cut will work. Nothing on the old ring matters after that.
How much does it cost per lock?
Pricing is per cylinder plus a service call to come out. Standard residential cylinders are the same low rate each, and keying several doors to one key on the same visit keeps the per-lock cost down. Odd or high-security cylinders run more. Call (818) 398-9391 and we'll quote your exact doors before we start.
