York, ON's older housing stock means a lot of the calls we get for combined installation and rekeying work start with the same basic question: nobody currently living in the house can say with any confidence how many keys exist for the front door. Can-Lock Security handles installation and rekeying together as one project, which is often exactly the fix a property with this kind of history actually needs.
Why This Comes Up So Often Here
A home that's passed through several owners over the decades accumulates an untraceable key history — spares cut for family, contractors handed a key during a renovation, past tenants who may or may not have returned everything. Rather than treating this as an unsolvable mystery, a full rekey closes the question directly, and it's worth pairing with any hardware changes you're already considering.
What This Service Actually Combines
Installing new lock hardware and rekeying, handled together as one visit rather than two separate appointments. This avoids the redundancy of a technician reassessing the same doors twice.
Keyed Alike or Keyed Differently
Most single-family homes make sense keyed alike, one key for everything. A property with a secondary suite might benefit from keyed differently with a master key. We help you decide based on your actual property.
What the Process Involves
We assess every door genuinely part of the project. New hardware is installed properly, strike plate reinforcement included. Keying is set up to match your chosen structure. Everything gets tested before we consider the work finished.
A Scenario Worth Naming Directly
If you've recently purchased a York home, or you've lived in one for years without ever addressing the locks, both situations point to the same sensible next step: a rekey, paired with any hardware upgrades that make sense for the property.
Worth Considering While the Work Is Underway
Since a technician is already assessing multiple locks, it's a reasonable time to ask about smart locks or a stronger deadbolt for the main entrance.
