Vancouver's Lock Change Experts.
Your Security, Our Priority.
A lock change in Vancouver is one of the simplest ways to regain control over who has access to your property. Whether you've just moved into a new home, experienced a break-in, or lost track of how many spare keys are floating around, replacing or rekeying your locks gives you a clean start. At Fast Locksmith Vancouver, we handle both residential lock changes and commercial rekeying projects across the city, every single day.
Not sure if you need a full lock change or a rekey? That is one of the most common questions we hear from Vancouver homeowners and business managers alike. A rekey is faster and more affordable when your hardware is in good condition. A full lock change makes sense when the mechanism is worn, damaged, or you want to upgrade to a higher-security product. Either way, our licensed technicians carry the parts on board to get the job done in a single visit.

Lock Change vs Lock Rekey.
Which One Do You Need?
Both options improve your security, but they work differently and cost differently. Here is a side-by-side breakdown to help you choose the right solution for your Vancouver property.
🔒 Lock Change
From $120 per lock (parts + labour)A lock change replaces the entire lock mechanism, including the cylinder, handle, and hardware. This is the right choice when your existing lock is physically damaged, outdated, or you want to upgrade to a higher-security product such as a Medeco or Mul-T-Lock deadbolt.
- Complete hardware replacement
- Ideal after a break-in or forced entry
- Upgrade to smart locks or high-security cylinders
- New construction or major renovation
- Worn-out or rusted lock mechanisms
🔑 Lock Rekey
From $60 per lock (labour only)A lock rekey changes the internal pin configuration so that old keys no longer work, while keeping the existing hardware in place. This is the most cost-effective way to secure your property when the lock itself is in good condition but you want to invalidate old keys.
- Same hardware, new key combination
- Perfect after moving into a new home
- Lost or unreturned keys from tenants
- Key all locks to a single master key
- Fastest turnaround, usually under 15 minutes per lock

We Have You Covered.
Tap any card to see how we solve the problem. Every scenario is one we handle regularly across Vancouver.
Just Moved Into a New Home
You picked up the keys, but you have no idea how many copies the previous owners made or who else might still have access.
Break-Up or Roommate Left
An ex-partner or former roommate still has a copy of your house key and you need to make sure they can no longer get in.
Break-In or Forced Entry
Someone kicked in your door or forced your lock open. The hardware is damaged and you need your home secured right away.
Staff Turnover at Your Business
Employees have left and you are not sure all keys were returned. You need to re-secure the building without replacing every lock.
Old, Worn-Out Locks
Your deadbolt is stiff, the key sticks, and the lock barely turns. It has been years since anyone serviced your door hardware.
Landlord Tenant Changeover
Your tenant has moved out and a new one is moving in. BC tenancy law recommends fresh keys between occupants for safety.
