Fast, reliable and mobile lock re-keying service in Canberra
A re-key involves replacing the internal parts of a lock so old keys no longer work, and you receive a new set of keys.
Re-keying is particularly important when you move into a new property and are unsure who has retained access to it. You can prevent past tenants, maintenance workers, and potential intruders from entering your new space by re-keying your locks.

The 3 main types of re-keying
Re-key to change the locks
If you’ve had keys stolen or have recently moved into a new property, you will want to prevent anyone who has the existing key from gaining access to your space.
We can re-key the locks so the existing keys no longer work, and we’ll provide a new set of keys. We can also re-key multiple locks so you can use the one key for all of them. This service is provided free of charge.
Re-key the locks so they all operate with one key
Having lots of different keys for your property can become annoying and cumbersome. Studies also show that simple security practices are the most likely to be followed.
Simplify your life by changing all your locks to operate with a single key.
Another popular option is to ‘key alike’ in groups. For example, you may wish to have one key for all screen doors, and another for all timber doors.
We have adaptors and parts to make locks compatible even if they are a different brand. This not only applies to doors – we can re-key windows, roller doors, mailboxes, and gate locks to operate with the same key as well.
Re-key a lock that has no keys
If you have a lock with no working keys, we can re-key the lock and provide a new set of keys. This is usually the most cost-effective way to make keys to a lock when all keys are lost. We provide as many copies of the new key as you need, at no extra charge.
A re-key gives you peace of mind that you have all the working keys for the lock and, even if the old key turns up, it won’t work anymore.
