Can locksmiths make keys without the original?

Yes. Locksmiths can cut a new key without the original by using the lock itself as a guide. They may disassemble the lock, use code-cutting machines, or reference manufacturer specifications. This process is common for lost keys in homes, vehicles, and offices. Modern tools allow locksmiths to produce accurate replacements, restoring access and ensuring the lock continues to function as designed.

What’s the difference between rekeying and replacing locks?

Rekeying changes the internal pins of a lock so it works with a new key, without replacing the entire lock body. Replacing involves removing the old hardware and installing a completely new lockset. Rekeying is generally cheaper and faster, while replacement is better if locks are damaged, worn, or when upgrading to higher-security models for improved protection and reliability.

What situations usually require a locksmith?

A locksmith is often needed when keys are lost, locks become faulty, or a key breaks in the cylinder. They also assist with lockouts, rekeying when moving house, installing stronger security hardware, or repairing damage after a break-in. Locksmiths cover residential, commercial, and automotive needs, ensuring locks and keys function properly and that properties remain secure at all times.
