Rekeying & Key Alike for Brighton homes and businesses
Rekeying changes the pins inside your existing cylinder so the old keys stop working and a new key takes over. It keeps hardware you already own and it is the right answer whenever the question is "who else has a key?" rather than "is this lock any good?".
Why Brighton in particular
Detached homes on larger blocks are usually well secured at the front and inconsistently secured everywhere else. The useful visit walks the boundary rather than the entrance. The interwar californian bungalows and brick homes here have solid timber front doors, often with original hardware that is worth keeping — a rekey and a reinforced strike usually beats replacing a door that has outlasted three owners.
Getting to you
Our vans work out of Richmond, so Brighton is a straightforward run at most hours. It is one of the larger suburbs we cover, so there is usually a van working the area rather than heading to it. We give you a realistic arrival window on the phone rather than a number that sounds good.

What it costs
We do not publish prices, because a jammed deadlock on a heritage door in Brighton and a spring latch that has swung shut are not the same job and should not carry the same number. Quotes are free, given before we start, and there is no obligation.

“Just settled on the house and had no idea how many keys were out there. Rekeyed the lot and keyed the front, back and garage to one key.”
“He looked at the cylinders first and told me two were worth rekeying and one was worn out and should be replaced. Straightforward.”
“Lost a whole keyring including the house keys. Rekeyed the same afternoon so I did not have to spend the night worrying about it.”

Rekeying & Key Alike in Brighton — common questions
How quickly can you get to Brighton for rekeying & key alike?
30 minutes is the target. Our vans work out of Richmond, so Brighton is a straightforward run at most hours. It is one of the larger suburbs we cover, so there is usually a van working the area rather than heading to it. We give you a realistic arrival window on the phone rather than a number that sounds good.
Rekey or replace — which do I need?
Rekey when the hardware is sound and the problem is key history. Replace when the cylinder is worn or seized, when the door does not meet the security standard you need, or when there is no deadlock at all. We will tell you which one you are looking at before we start.
Can every lock be rekeyed?
Most can. Some budget cylinders are not economically rekeyable and some high-security systems need their own components. We check on site and say so plainly.
I just bought the house. Is rekeying really necessary?
You have no way of knowing how many keys the previous owners cut over the years, or who still has one — trades, cleaners, family, an old tenant. Rekeying resets that to zero. It is the single most common job we do for new owners.
