Residential Services – Re-keying vs Replacing Locks
Residential Services are usually required in the state of an emergency. For example, experiencing a break-in or theft, loosing or misplacing keys and replacing or rekeying locks are the most commonly requested services of a residential locksmith.

No matter the time or day we understand that certain scenarios simply can not be put on hold. Our qualified technicians are here to cater to all of your locksmith needs- residential or commercial.
Re-Keying a Lock
While “replacing a lock” is self explanatory, rekeying takes a more technical route and requires a bit of explanation to be understood. Re-keying a lock simply means to change the corresponding key to the lock while still keeping the original lock itself (you keep the same lock but the old key will no longer be able to operate it). This is done through the process of replacing the “tumblers” or “key pins”. Each set of pins inside your lock will correspond with the new key you set it with. This may sound complicated however, it is actually more practical as the “pins” itself commonly come at a less costly price then replacing a lock altogether.
Replacing a Lock
When is the right time to replace your locks, you may find yourself wondering? For starters, hardware and design; whether moving from one house to another or wanting to improve the interior design of all your locks, BarzzLocks will help provide the perfect lock(s) suitable to all of your personal needs. If a lock has rusted or worn down it might be best to ditch the rekey and look at replacement. In addition, upgrading security or switching your locks to electric locks are another typical reason for lock replacement around your residence. Serving the Kitchener/Waterloo, Cambridge and surrounding areas we know that the security of your residence is important. We take pride in helping our customers make an informed decision.
