Re-key & lock change — Mobile Locksmith of Pittsburgh

We re-pin the cylinders inside your existing locks so old keys no longer work — without replacing the lock body. Cheaper than full lock replacement, and we leave you with as many matching new keys as you need.

Common questions about re-key & lock change.

Re-key vs. replace — which do I want?

Re-key if your existing locks are in good shape (most are). Replace if a lock is damaged, looks dated, or you want to upgrade to a smart lock or higher-security model.

How many locks can you do per visit?

As many as you have on the property — front door, back door, garage interior door, side gate. We match all of them to one key ("keyed alike") at no extra charge.

Can my old key still work afterwards?

No. After re-pinning the cylinder, the old key physically can't push the pins to the right height. That's the whole point.

What about smart locks?

We install Schlage Encode, Yale, Defiant, Kwikset Halo and similar — bring the box or order it, we install. We don't sell hardware.

Got locked out at 11pm. Tech was here in 22 minutes. Polite, fast, reasonable price. Saved my night.

Lost the only key to my Honda. They cut and programmed a new one in my driveway. Half the dealer quote.

Re-keyed three locks after I bought my house. Showed up on time, walked me through everything, gave me a printed receipt.
