What's the difference between rekeying and changing a lock?

Rekeying keeps your existing lock but changes its internal pins so old keys stop working — it's fast and economical. Changing the lock swaps the whole unit, which you'd choose if the lock is worn or you want an upgrade.

Should I rekey after moving into a home in Simi Valley?

Yes, it's one of the smartest first moves. You have no way to know how many copies of the previous key exist, so rekeying gives you full control of who can enter.

Can you rekey all my locks to a single key?

We can, as long as the locks share a compatible keyway. Keying alike means one convenient key opens every door you want.
