Residential Locksmith · Cheswold, DE
Rekeying changes the internal pin configuration of your locks so that old keys no longer work — without replacing the hardware. 1st Capital Locksmith provides fast, affordable lock rekeying throughout Cheswold and Kent County for new homeowners, landlords, and anyone who needs to control who has access to their property.
More Affordable Than Replacement
Rekeying costs significantly less than replacing lock hardware — your existing locks stay in place.
Same Security Level
A rekeyed lock provides the same level of security as a brand-new lock with fresh hardware.
All Locks to One Key
We can rekey all your locks so they work with a single new key — front door, back door, deadbolt.

Rekeying Services in Cheswold
Moving into a new home in Cheswold — whether it's a new build or a resale — means you don't know how many copies of the existing keys are out there. Previous owners, contractors, real estate agents, and neighbors may all have copies. Rekeying immediately after closing is the single most important security step a new homeowner can take. We can rekey every lock in your home in a single visit.
Landlords in Cheswold should rekey between every tenancy — it's one of the most cost-effective ways to protect new tenants and limit liability exposure. We work with property managers and individual landlords across Kent County to provide fast, affordable rekeying service between tenant move-outs and move-ins. We can often service multiple units in the same visit.
Lost a key? Had a break-up or roommate change? Concerned a key was copied without your knowledge? These are all excellent reasons to rekey your locks in Cheswold. Rekeying renders all existing keys useless and gives you a clean start with new keys — often for less than $50 per lock. Call us and we can typically respond same-day.
Some situations call for a full lock change rather than rekeying — for example, if your existing locks are worn, damaged, low-quality, or have been physically compromised. We assess your hardware honestly and tell you whether rekeying is the right call or if a deadbolt installation or full replacement would serve you better.
