Just moved in? Roommate moved out? Key unaccounted for? Rekeying re-pins the locks you already own so every old key becomes scrap, for about a third of the cost of new locks.
Cypress Locksmith
Here is the uncomfortable math of moving into a Cypress home: the seller's key, the agent's key, the dog-walker's key, the spare 'hidden' by the side gate, you will never know how many copies are out there. Lock rekeying in Cypress ends the guessing. We pull each cylinder, swap its pins to a brand-new combination, and hand you fresh keys. Every old key stops working the moment we finish.
Cypress Locksmith (the licensed Golden Locks team, CA License LCO4446) rekeys Kwikset, Schlage, Yale, and most other residential brands, usually in one same-day visit. If your hardware is sound, rekeying delivers new-lock security for roughly a third of replacement cost, and we key all your doors alike, so one key runs the whole house.
Landlords across northwest Orange County use our rekey service between every tenancy, it is fast, documented, and the simplest liability cut a property owner can buy. Homeowners use it after breakups, lost keys, and every move-in. Either way, you approve the per-lock price up front: from $19 per lock, no surprises.

How it works
Call (657) 689-1515 and tell us how many keyed doors you have. That is enough for a firm quote.
One total for the visit, service call plus per-lock rekeying, stated in plain numbers.
Each lock is pulled, re-pinned to a new combination, and tested. Old keys are tried too, they should fail.
Fresh keys cut and counted, all doors keyed alike where possible. Done in one visit.
Local & proud
Cypress turns over homes steadily, families trading up near Cypress College, renters cycling through the Lincoln Ave and Walker St apartments, and long-held homes around Oak Knoll Park changing hands after decades. Our standing advice to every new occupant in the 90630: rekey before the first night, not after the first worry.
We also rekey for the folks who keep Cypress housed, property managers and landlords from Ball Rd to Cerritos Ave who need a unit turned around between tenants with paperwork to prove it. Same-day slots are reserved for move-ins; call early and the locks are fresh by dinner.
Good to know
Rekey when the locks are mechanically sound and you like how they look: the security gain is identical, because a rekeyed cylinder is a brand-new combination. Replace when hardware is worn, rusted, builder-grade flimsy, or you want to step up to a deadbolt or smart lock, then the money buys something rekeying cannot.
Beware any locksmith who insists every lock 'must' be replaced. Often that is a hardware sale talking. Our techs rekey sound locks all day long, and our reviews under the Golden Locks name reflect that honesty.

Good questions
Most homes land between $95 and $160 for four to six locks, plus the service call. Each lock is $19 to $29 depending on brand. You approve the exact total before we begin.
Yes. After rekeying, the cylinder answers only to your new keys, the same security result as a new lock of the same grade. The difference is you keep hardware that still works well.
Usually, yes, as long as the locks share a compatible keyway, which most home brands do. We key them alike as part of the job and cut as many copies as you need.
Most homes take 30 to 60 minutes. Apartments and smaller jobs are faster. It is a single visit, scheduled the same day in most cases.
Smart locks use codes and credentials instead of pins. We reset codes, clear old users, and re-pair the lock to you, see our smart lock page for full installs.
