Rekeying a lock refers to readjusting the pin combination in the locking mechanism so that your old lock functions with a new key. Rekeying a lock does not compromise or improve the lock’s security. As long as the locksmith replaces the old pins with an equal number of new ones, the security of your lock remains the same.

Rekeying is a good option if you do not know who else has a key to your new home, or when you want to prevent a person with the key from entering. It is more economical to rekey the locks and retain the old hardware, but replacing the locks is better if they are old. You may also replace the locks if you want to upgrade them to electronic or high-security locks. Call TBC Locksmith at (647) 699-0953 for fast, reliable service with honest and competitive fees!

No. You can pick most of the basic and medium security locks, but you cannot pick high-security locks. The only way to open a high-security lock is by drilling it. Although there is no pick-proof lock, high-security locks are so challenging to pick that experts take long to open them. One definition of a high-security lock is one that an expert requires more than half a minute to pick. Call TBC Locksmith at (647) 699-0953 for fast, reliable service with honest and competitive fees!
