Rekey the lock or replace the hardware?
Rekeying changes which key operates a compatible lock while keeping the existing hardware. It may suit a working lock when you want old keys to stop opening it. Replacement changes the lock hardware and may be appropriate when a lock is damaged, unsuitable or no longer meets your needs.
A sticking key or a door that needs lifting can also involve alignment, the latch or the strike. Describe the symptoms when you call so we can discuss what needs assessment. For more detail, read our guide to rekeying versus lock replacement.
For North Hollywood homes
After a move or a change in who should have access, start with the exterior doors and the keys you have. We can assess compatible locks for rekeying, discuss replacement options and check whether suitable locks can share one key. Different brands or keyways may prevent a single-key setup.
For an apartment or condo, tell us which door belongs to your unit and whether building management controls any shared entrance. Have the appropriate authorization ready before work begins. Learn about our residential locksmith services.
For offices, shops and commercial properties
A staff change, missing key or new lease is a practical time to review access. List the doors that need attention and identify which old keys should stop working. Tell us about any existing master-key system or specialist door hardware so compatibility can be assessed.
Discuss the service window and who can approve the work before the visit. We can explain rekeying or replacement options for the hardware at your premises. See our commercial locksmith services.
What to prepare before calling
- Your North Hollywood location, property type and any gate, parking or building-access instructions.
- The number of doors or cylinders and whether you have a working key for each.
- Whether the door opens normally, the key sticks or the hardware is visibly damaged.
- Whether you want compatible doors on one key, and who is authorized to approve service.
Ask for an estimate covering the visit, labor and any necessary parts. Lock type, quantity, condition and access affect the work required; confirm the scope and price before authorizing it.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to replace a car key if it is locked inside?
Explain that the key is inside when you call. Entry assistance is different from making or programming a new key. If the key is missing or damaged, ask us to confirm the replacement options for your vehicle.
Can I keep my existing locks?
Often, rekeying can preserve compatible hardware that is in suitable working condition. The lock needs to be assessed first; damage or an incompatible cylinder may call for repair or replacement.
Can you rekey a lock if I have lost the key?
It may be possible, depending on the lock and whether the door is accessible. Tell us that the key is missing when you call so we can discuss the situation and estimate.
Do you offer mobile service to my part of North Hollywood?
North Hollywood is in our service area. Contact us with your location and preferred time to confirm current availability. You can also review our Los Angeles service areas.
Can you give me an exact price before seeing the lock?
We can discuss an estimate from the information you provide. If the hardware or door condition changes the scope, ask for the updated price before approving work.
