Imagine this situation: the ignition lock mechanism is faulty, but the hardware is still in perfect working condition. An ignition rekey is your next option. This is a simple yet effective way to change the ignition lock without tampering with the existing hardware. During the rekey process, the cylinder in the old ignition lock is replaced with a new one. After this, all old keys will no longer work, and new keys must be cut.

Ignition rekeying is cost-effective and durable when performed by a professional locksmith.

Who needs an ignition rekey service, and why?

• If your vehicle’s ignition lock is malfunctioning, rekeying is a smart alternative to full replacement.

• Just bought a used car? Rekeying the ignition ensures previous owners or key holders cannot access your vehicle.

• Going through a personal dispute or divorce? Rekeying your ignition enhances security and peace of mind.

• Own a fleet or multiple vehicles? Rekeying ignitions between drivers or tenants keeps your vehicles secure without the expense of full replacements.

• In some cases, regulations or vehicle design limit full lock changes—rekeying preserves hardware integrity while enhancing security.
