Rekeying Services Sunshine Coast

Rekeying Services – Sunshine Coast

Need to change who has access to your property—without replacing all your locks? Rekeying is the fastest and most cost-effective way to secure your home, rental, or business.

At Jarrah Locksmith, I offer professional lock rekeying services across the Sunshine Coast, including Buderim, Maroochydore, Caloundra, Sippy Downs, and surrounding areas. Whether you’ve just moved in, lost your keys, or want to prevent previous keyholders from gaining entry, rekeying is a smart choice.

Instead of replacing the entire lock, I simply change the internal pins inside the existing hardware. The result? The old keys stop working, and you get a brand-new set of keys that only you control. This is ideal for new homeowners, tenants, landlords, real estate agents, and business owners who want to stay secure without spending more than they need to.

If your locks are still in good condition but you’re concerned about who might have a copy of the key, rekeying is a fast and affordable solution. I can also rekey all your locks to work with just one key — no more carrying around multiple sets.

This service is fully mobile. I come to you, inspect your locks, and rekey them on-site. I only use quality key blanks and rekeying tools to ensure smooth operation and long-term reliability.

If you’re unsure whether your locks need to be replaced or just rekeyed, I’ll give you honest advice on what’s best for your situation and budget. In most cases, rekeying is all you need to restore complete control and peace of mind.

For urgent jobs or planned upgrades, you can call me 24/7. I’m a local, licensed locksmith with experience in both residential and commercial rekeying.

Rekeying FAQs

What is rekeying?

Rekeying is the process of changing the internal pins inside your existing lock so that old keys no longer work. You get a new set of keys without changing the whole lock.

Is rekeying cheaper than replacing the lock?

Yes. Rekeying is usually more affordable than replacing the entire lock hardware, especially if your existing locks are still in good condition.

Most standard locks can be rekeyed, including deadbolts, knob locks, and some digital locks. If your lock is damaged or very old, replacement may be a better option — I’ll let you know once I assess it.

How long does rekeying take?

Rekeying usually takes 10–20 minutes per lock, depending on the type and number of locks. I can complete most homes or small businesses in a single visit.

Should I rekey after moving house?

Absolutely. You never know how many people have copies of the old keys. Rekeying ensures that you and your family are the only ones with access.

Yes, in many cases I can rekey multiple locks to work on the same key, as long as they are compatible. This is known as "keying alike" and makes life much easier.
