When to Rekey Locks in Silver Spring
Changing who can enter your home, business, or rental property can leave you unsure who still has a working key. Rekeying changes which key operates a compatible lock, so you can restore control without automatically replacing the lock itself.
You’ve moved into a new home
Previous owners, tenants, or other people may still have copies of the old keys. Rekeying gives you a new set of keys for the locks that can be changed.
A key is missing
If you cannot account for a house or business key, rekeying can make the old key stop working in the locks we service. Tell us which doors are affected when you call.
A tenant or employee has left
When someone who had access moves out or leaves a role, you may want to update the keys for the relevant doors. We can discuss which locks need attention and whether they can be rekeyed.
You want fewer keys to manage
Ask us whether compatible locks at your property can be rekeyed to work with the same key. The locks need to be assessed before we can confirm what can be done.
You’re settling an access concern
If you are not sure who has copies of your keys, changing the lock’s keying can help you regain control of access. For a re-keying request, tell us how many locks are involved and whether they are installed.
What Our Silver Spring Lock Rekeying Service Covers
We provide mobile locksmith service, so we can come to you to assess installed locks. We also have a real shop; if a lock has already been removed, call to discuss whether bringing it in is the right option. We serve Silver Spring and communities across our service area, including lock rekeying in Baltimore, lock rekeying in Columbia, and lock rekeying in Frederick.
- Assessment of the lock — We look at the lock’s condition and whether it can be rekeyed. If the lock needs a different service, we’ll explain the issue before proceeding.
- Changing the key access — For a suitable lock, we change its key configuration so the previous key no longer operates it and a new key does.
- More than one lock — Tell us how many locks you want changed and which doors they secure. We can assess each lock and discuss whether they can use one key.
- Residential and business locks — We offer lock rekeying for residential and commercial customers. Let us know whether the locks are at a home, rental property, or business.
- New keys for the changed lock — The goal of rekeying is for the changed lock to work with a new key. Tell us how many keys you need so we can discuss the job with you.
- A clear service plan — We discuss the locks involved and the work needed before starting. For details about our broader service, visit our locksmith in Silver Spring page.

How a Silver Spring Lock Rekeying Visit Works
A little information up front helps us understand what you need and prepare for the visit. You do not need to take apart an installed lock; just describe the situation when you call.
- Call and describe the locks — Call MD Locksmith at (240) 366-2739. Tell us where the locks are, how many need attention, whether they are installed, and what prompted the change.
- Arrange mobile service or discuss the shop — For installed locks, our mobile locksmith comes to you. If a lock has already been removed, let us know so we can discuss whether bringing it to our shop makes sense.
- We assess the lock and explain the work — We check whether the lock is suitable for rekeying and talk through the requested work. If its condition or design calls for a different approach, we explain that before doing the job.
- We change the key access — Once the work is agreed, we rekey the suitable lock and check its operation with the new key. The work is covered by at least a 6-month warranty on parts and labor.
What Affects the Cost of Rekeying Locks
The cost depends on how many locks need work, their condition, and whether they can be rekeyed as requested. The $15 service call is the listed service-call price, not a total price for a rekeying job. Contact us with the number of locks and where they are for a quote based on your situation.
Veterans and active military, seniors 65 and older, and police, firefighters, EMTs, nurses, and other health workers receive 10% off. One discount applies per job, and discounts do not apply to the $15 service call. For questions or to discuss your locks, contact MD Locksmith.

Frequently asked questions
When should I rekey a lock in Silver Spring?
Consider rekeying after moving in, losing a key, or changing who should have access to your home or business. Tell us which locks are involved so we can assess whether they can be rekeyed.
Can a locksmith make a new key from a lock?
We can rekey a suitable lock so it works with a new key instead of the previous one. Call and describe the lock and its condition so we can discuss the job.
Does rekeying require replacing the whole lock?
Not when the existing lock is suitable for rekeying; the work changes which key operates it rather than replacing the hardware. If the lock’s condition or design makes rekeying unsuitable, we’ll explain that before proceeding.
How much does locksmith rekeying cost?
The listed service-call price is $15, but that is not the total price for rekeying. The cost depends on the number and condition of the locks and the work required, so call with those details for a quote.
Can you rekey a lock after hours in Silver Spring?
Yes. MD Locksmith is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and our mobile locksmith comes to customers. Call to explain which lock needs attention and where it is.
Can several locks be changed to use one key?
That depends on the locks and their condition. Tell us how many locks you have and where they are, and we can assess whether they can be keyed alike.
