Rekey & Lock Change Merricks
Lost keys or just moved into a home in Merricks? Rekeying makes every old key useless — usually for less than new locks.
When to rekey
- You’ve just moved in and don’t know who has keys.
- Keys are lost or stolen.
- A tenant, tradesperson or staff member hasn’t returned keys.
- You’d like one key for every door.
How a rekey works
We take the cylinder out, change the pins inside to suit a new key, and put it back — the lock itself stays on the door. It’s quick, and it’s usually much cheaper than new hardware.
Farms and holiday properties in Merricks
Around Merricks, properties often combine a home, farm sheds and a holiday house or cottage, with keys shared among family, workers and guests. Rekeying and keying everything alike gives you one key for the lot, and restricted keys stop copies from being cut without your say-so.
Frequently asked questions
Can one key open the house, cottage and sheds?
Usually, if the locks are compatible. If not, we can supply locks that are.
How long does a rekey take?
Usually just a few minutes per lock.
Is rekeying cheaper than new locks?
In most cases, yes — you keep the lock and only change the pins.
