Don't Change Locks
Grand Rapids MI
READ THIS FIRST!

Want to change locks Grand Rapids MI -- Rekey them! -- Often times it's a better solution than changing the locks. When you find yourself thinking about changing your locks, consider rekeying instead.

Maybe you have just moved into a new home or a roommate moves out. Even if you do get your keys back from the previous owners and occupants they've had the opportunity to duplicate your keys. Did you lose a key or loan out a key and it was never returned? You really have no way of knowing how many duplicates may have been made, or who has them.


Rekey instead of replacing all your hardware, when ...

In almost any situation where you think a lock needs to be changed our residential locksmith can rekey the lock at a fraction of the cost and for less than it will take to purchase new locks and install them.

This is especially true when your locks are relatively new or still in good condition.  New lock hardware can be very expensive and if you are not a do it yourself type, you will still need to hire someone to remove old locks and install ones.

It is a matter of changing the pins inside the tumblers of a lock cylinder so the old key will no longer work, only the new once will.  The locksmith will provide new keys that coincide with the new pins so the tumbler will turn and the lock will open, but only with the new keys.

This process usually results in a significantly lower cost than buying new locks. Often your residence has a good quality security lock. Don't be tempted to purchase something of inferior quality at one of your local discount stores, just to change the key.  

Rekey so all the locks in your home will work with just one key.

Many people rekey locks for convenience. Don't juggle a bunch of keys when you can have all your doors and locks keyed to work with one key. We can rekey an unlimited number of locks in your home to all work with the same key.

Change the locks!

A few of our customer reviews!

Mary O'Hara: I have used A-1 on multiple occasions and they have been prompt and professional every time.

A Google User: Incredibly friendly, fast & efficient! Desmond arrived at my house within 20 minutes after I called, just as he said he would! He is extremely friendly and very reasonably priced. Other locksmiths I called had higher rates, and could not make it to my home for several hours. I was very happy I called Desmond and I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone! He's the best! :)
