Rekeying locks is the service Wedgefield homeowners call us for most, and for good reason. The housing stock here, built largely between the 1980s and 2000s on acreage, carries a lot of builder-grade Schlage and Kwikset hardware that is now decades old. When a property changes hands, or a key goes missing across multiple outbuildings, rekeying every entry point in one visit is the smart move. It restores control without replacing hardware that still has years of life left. Call (833) 713-2331 for a free phone estimate.
Why Wedgefield Homes Are Different
Wedgefield is not a typical Orlando subdivision. Homes sit on one to five acres, often with long private driveways, detached garages, workshops, and equestrian barns. That changes the locksmith math considerably. A single address might have six or eight keyed entry points: the front door, a side door, a garage entry, a barn door, a shed padlock, and a gate at the driveway. In a standard subdivision, we might rekey two or three doors. In Wedgefield, we routinely rekey five or more per call.
The climate in 32833 is also harder on hardware than people expect. Central Florida humidity, summer thunderstorms, and intense UV exposure mean exterior locks corrode, stick, and pit faster than they do in drier climates. Gate hardware and padlocks take the worst of it because they sit fully exposed. We see a lot of cylinders that are still mechanically sound but so weathered the key struggles to turn. Rekeying those cylinders, rather than replacing them, is often the most cost-effective fix.
There is also a security reality specific to Wedgefield. Properties here back onto large tracts of rural land and quiet roads. There are no close neighbors watching the driveway, no foot traffic acting as a deterrent. Lock hardware is the primary line of defense. That is why we recommend rekeying as a first step on any new home purchase here, before moving a single box inside.
Styles & brands we work with
Our Main Wedgefield Services
Rekeying is the core security service for Wedgefield homeowners, but two other jobs round out what we handle in this area: car key replacement and emergency lockout response. Both are covered in detail on their own pages.
Car Key Replacement in Wedgefield
Wedgefield’s rural layout makes car key failure particularly disruptive. There is no walking to a corner store or catching a quick bus. If your only key is lost or a transponder stops reading, the vehicle is stranded in the driveway or at a trailhead. We handle transponder programming, proximity keys, and fob replacements for most makes, right at your property. You do not need to tow the car to a dealership. Full details are on the Car Key Replacement in Wedgefield page.
Emergency Locksmith in Wedgefield
Lockouts and urgent security situations in Wedgefield come with a layer of geography. The drive from the main road out to many 32833 properties is long, and help is not nearby. When a door locks behind you or a deadbolt fails with a child inside, the priority is reaching the property quickly and getting you back in without damaging the hardware. We carry a comprehensive tool set for the lock brands common in this area. See the Emergency Locksmith in Wedgefield page for response details and what to expect.

Rekey Locks in Wedgefield
Rekeying in Wedgefield is different from rekeying in a closer-in Orlando neighborhood because the job is rarely just one front door. Housing here dates largely from the 1980s through the 2000s, so the hardware is often aging builder-grade Schlage or Kwikset. Adding the climate factor, several outbuildings, and a gate, and you get a rekey project that touches multiple cylinders instead of one. This is exactly the work we are set up for. It is also why we treat Rekey Locks as a core service, not an add-on.
Lock Rekey
Signs you need it
You have lost track of how many copies of your key exist, a tenant or contractor has moved on, or you recently closed on a Wedgefield home and cannot verify who still holds a key.
What it costs in Wedgefield
Lock rekeying in Wedgefield typically ranges from $18 to $30 per cylinder in labor, plus parts when a new key type or cylinder upgrade is required.
How we do it
We disassemble the cylinder, swap the internal pins to match a new key, reassemble, and test the lock through several full cycles to confirm smooth operation.
Rekey Door Lock
Signs you need it
A key has gone missing from the hook inside the house, a relationship situation or roommate arrangement has changed, or you want one key that works the front, side, and garage entry all together.
What it costs in Wedgefield
Rekeying door locks in Wedgefield generally falls between $18 and $30 per cylinder in labor, which is almost always cheaper than replacing the door hardware itself.
How we do it
We pull each lock cylinder, re-pin it to the new or existing key, reinstall the hardware, and verify alignment and key rotation before we leave the property.
Keyed Alike
Signs you need it
You are carrying a heavy key ring with separate keys for the house, garage, barn, shed, and gate, and you want one key that operates everything on the property.
What it costs in Wedgefield
Keying multiple locks alike in Wedgefield shares the same $18 to $30 per cylinder labor range, with the total depending on how many cylinders are involved.
How we do it
We re-pin each cylinder to the same key code, cut the agreed number of matching keys, and test the single key across every door, gate, and outbuilding on the property.

Wedgefield pricing is shaped by distance and property size. Multiple outbuildings and gate hardware push a rekey higher because the cylinder count rises, and the rural spread of 32833 means a longer drive than a downtown call. What you are quoted on the phone is the price on the invoice: no add-on fees when we arrive, no bait-and-switch line items.

What Wedgefield Customers Say
"The old deadbolt was mounted crooked by whoever lived here before and had been sticking for years. He redrilled and reset it properly rather than just replacing the hardware."
— Jamal Carter"Told me over the phone that what I needed was a five dollar part from the hardware store, not a locksmith. I called him back a month later for real work because of that."
— Ryan Whitaker"Does good work. Card payment was a bit of a production, so have another option handy."
— Emily Novak
