The term rekey actually has two very different and distinct meanings. First, it means to change the combination of a lock, create a new key for the lock, thus disabling any keys previously in use. This is done to re-secure a home or business after a change Usually new homeowners will get their house ‘rekeyed’, so no one but the new owner has entry. Businesses get their locks rekeyed when a key carrying employee has left the company or a change of owners/managers. Only the part of the lock that takes the key inside the lock actually gets changed, and the original hardware remains unchanged. REKEY can also mean to replace a key that was lost, stolen or broken. This is entirely different than resetting the combination on the lock. In this case, the original lost key would be re-manufactured from scratch, and the and the combination to the lock remains unchanged. Both services share the same term, but the actual work and charges are very different.

Law enforcement and security specialists agree on this one, because the real issue is safety.

This is especially true if one is dealing with severe weather, or being pursued by an animal, or worse, someone with malicious intent.

A key that has a device embedded inside which transmits and receives data. These devices contain one of over a trillion unique codes. When the key is inserted into the ignition, the transponder sends a signal to a disc-shaped antenna mounted behind the steering wheel. If the signal is recognized by the vehicles immobilizer, then the engine will start. If the signal is not recognized or has been weakened by damage to the transponder then the immobilizer will shut down vital operating systems to the engine and it will not run. This technology greatly reduces the risk of auto theft and provides a peace of mind for the vehicles owner. Check out our Automotive Locksmith page for more details.

Every car is programmed differently. Most Transponder keys come preprogrammed with a fixed code. This means that it cannot be changed to match the vehicle.
