Why Change Your Locks?

Your door locks are the first line of defense for your Santa Cruz home. Over time, locks wear down, technology improves, and circumstances change. Salt air along the California coast accelerates corrosion in lock cylinders, making regular maintenance essential, which can degrade lock components faster than expected. A professional lock change ensures your home is protected with modern, reliable hardware.

Do you change locks on apartments and condos?

Yes. We change locks on all types of residential properties in Santa Cruz, including apartments, condos, townhomes, and single-family homes. We recommend checking with your landlord or HOA first for rental properties.

Can you match new locks to my existing key?

Yes — we can key new locks to match your existing key so you only need one key for all your doors. This is called keying alike.

Should I change locks or rekey when moving to a new home?
