Four Details That Can Improve Routing.
Frequently asked questions
Questions Before You Schedule.
Should I rekey or replace my home locks?
Rekeying may be appropriate when compatible hardware is in good condition and only key access must change. Replacement may be considered for damage, wear, incompatible keyways, feature upgrades, code concerns, or preferred security changes.
Can all of my home locks use one key?
Possibly. The locks generally must use compatible keyways and cylinder formats. A participating locksmith must inspect the hardware and determine whether keying alike is practical.
Can a renter change the locks?
Lease terms and local law may require landlord or property-manager approval and may require a key to be provided. Confirm authorization before ordering work.
Are smart locks more secure than mechanical locks?
Security depends on the complete door assembly, lock design, installation, credential management, software support, physical key backup, and user practices. A smart lock is not automatically more secure in every application.
Does Lock Rescue sell or install locks?
No. Lock Rescue connects consumers with participating independent providers. The provider determines product availability, compatibility, pricing, installation methods, and warranties.
How many keys are included after rekeying?
Included keys vary by provider and estimate. Ask how many keys are included, the cost of additional copies, whether restricted keys apply, and who may authorize future duplication.
