Los Angeles homeowners call us for residential lock changes for many important reasons:
- Moving into a new home — You never know who has copies of the old keys. Whether you’re closing on a house in Eagle Rock or renting an apartment in Koreatown, changing locks immediately is smart security.
- After a break-in or attempted burglary — Los Angeles has higher-than-average property crime rates in certain neighborhoods. If your home has been targeted, replacing compromised locks is essential.
- Lost or stolen keys — If your house keys go missing at The Grove, Griffith Park, or anywhere in LA, a lock change eliminates the risk of unauthorized entry.
- Divorce, roommate changes, or tenant turnover — Any time someone who had a key no longer should, it’s time for new locks.
- Worn, damaged, or outdated locks — Old locks are easier to pick or force open. Upgrading to modern high-security locks protects your family and belongings.
- Home security upgrade — Smart locks, keypad entry, and high-security deadbolt-for-maximum-home-security/”>deadbolts offer significantly better protection than standard builder-grade locks.

How long does it take to change locks on a house in Los Angeles?

Should I change locks or rekey when moving into a new home in Los Angeles?
If the existing locks are in good condition and relatively modern, rekeying is a cost-effective option.
