How our Rekey Locks works in Alameda

Here is how a typical rekey locks visit works when you call Avant Guard Locksmith in Alameda:

Count the locks: We list every door to be rekeyed.

Rekey together: We rekey them alike or separately as you prefer.

Provide keys: You receive the new keys you need.

Confirm security: Old keys are retired and everything is tested.

We come prepared. Our Alameda service vehicles carry the blanks, cylinders, programmers, and hardware for the vast majority of jobs, which is why we can usually finish in one trip instead of scheduling a return visit.

If we discover something unexpected mid-job — a hidden alignment problem, a worn part, a vehicle quirk — we stop and explain it before proceeding. You always stay in control of the decision and the budget.

Skill matters, but so does judgment. Knowing when to rekey instead of replace, when a lock can be repaired, or when a security upgrade is genuinely worth it saves Alameda customers money — and that judgment is what we bring to every visit.

  • Straight talk on options — we explain whether a repair, a rekey, or a replacement makes the most sense before we start.
