How SoCal Lock & Key Approaches Emergency Rekey Service

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

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.

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.
