Should You Rekey Your Locks After Moving In?

When you buy or rent a new home, it's easy to assume the locks are secure simply because they're new to you. But you rarely know how many copies of the keys exist — past owners, old tenants, contractors, even a neighbor who used to water the plants.

Rekeying solves this without replacing your hardware. A locksmith changes the internal pin configuration of your existing locks so old keys stop working, while you keep the same deadbolts and handles you already have.

It's one of the simplest security upgrades a new homeowner can make, and for a typical house it's usually done in a single visit. If you've just moved into a home anywhere in Dauphin, Cumberland or Lebanon County, All Seasons Locksmith can rekey your doors while we're there — call (223) 240-3505 to set it up.
