Rekey & Lock Change pricing: We post real ranges so you can compare against the bait-and-switch shops. The price quoted on dispatch is the price on completion unless something changes on site - and we tell you before we touch the lock.
When you call Lone Star Lock Co for a rekey or lock change in Houston, we dispatch a technician to your Sugar Land home, Galleria condo, or Midtown rental within two hours. The tech inspects all your locks, confirms which ones need rekeying or replacement, and provides a final price before starting work. We carry common lock cylinders and hardware in our trucks, so most jobs complete without delay, and you'll receive new keys immediately. If you need rekeying after a weather event or flood, we prioritize emergency calls and can often get you back in quickly during our high-volume storm seasons.
A full-home rekey for a typical Montrose bungalow or suburban four-bedroom usually runs $150 to $400, depending on how many locks you have and whether they're all keyed alike. High-rise condos in the Galleria area may cost less if you're only rekeying the unit entry. We'll give you an exact quote after assessing your doors.
Rekeying is almost always the right choice for lost keys, since it costs half as much as replacement and takes about an hour for most homes. Replacement makes sense only if your locks are damaged, the cylinders are worn out, or you want upgraded hardware like smart locks or deadbolts with better security ratings.
Most single-family homes in Sugar Land take 45 minutes to two hours depending on the number of exterior doors and whether your locks are standard pin-tumbler or more complex models. We work quickly without compromising quality, and you'll have all new keys before we leave.
We recommend a full rekey after every guest checkout if you're managing short-term rentals, since you can't track how many key copies guests may have made. Many Midtown and Medical Center STR owners rekey monthly or quarterly as a preventive measure, which usually runs $200 to $350 per cycle.
Yes, it's standard practice and protects you legally in Texas. We recommend rekeying immediately after move-out, especially in older Montrose properties where you may not know how many copies previous tenants made. The cost usually runs $100 to $250 depending on the number of locks.
