What Is Rekeying and Why Is It Important?
Rekeying is the process of modifying a lock’s internal mechanism so that a new key works—while old keys no longer function. Unlike changing a lock entirely, rekeying is far more cost-effective and highly secure.
Top reasons to rekey:
You just moved into a home
A tenant moved out
You lost a key or suspect a copy exists
Employee turnover
Security concerns
Upgrading to a master key system
Hotel or multi-unit property key control
For most property owners, rekeying is both cheaper and safer than replacing hardware.

Master Key Rekey & Master Sub-Master Systems

User Level Key — opens only one lock
This is particularly valuable for:

Office buildings
Multi-unit commercial properties

Hotels
Educational campuses
