We keep rekey locks simple for San Mateo customers. A typical job follows these steps:

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 San Mateo 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.

Reputation is everything for a local service business, and we treat every San Mateo job as a chance to earn a customer for life. That means fair pricing, tidy work, and advice you can trust even when it means recommending the cheaper option.
