Moving & changing keys
New place. A fresh start with your keys.
Moving into an apartment near Davis Square or a home off Union Square? Before replacing every lock, ask about rekeying suitable hardware. Start with the doors you are allowed to change, and check with the landlord or building manager about shared entrances.
Understand rekeyingYour unit door and a shared entrance may need different permissions.
Repair & installation
Tell us what the door is doing.
Does the key turn when the door is open, but stick when it is closed? Is the handle loose? You do not need to know the name of the part. A simple description helps separate a key problem from a door-fit problem.

Different squares. Different doors.
A private apartment, a shared entrance and a managed building can call for different permissions and preparation.
Davis Square
For an apartment entrance, tell us whether the problem is at your unit or the door everyone uses. Have the right keyholder or manager involved.
Union Square
At a home or storefront, describe the specific door and what has changed. A missing key and a latch that will not catch are different jobs.
Assembly Square
At a managed building, start with the property team’s access process. Confirm who can approve the work before changing keys or hardware.

All 14 questionsDoes moving in mean I need all-new locks?
Not necessarily. Rekeying changes which key operates a suitable existing cylinder. Hardware that is damaged, worn or unsuitable may need repair or replacement. Discuss the condition of each door and the access change you want.
Why does my lock work with the door open but stick when closed?
The door, latch and frame may not be lining up properly, although worn hardware can also contribute. Mention this symptom during the call. Avoid forcing the key; a new cylinder alone may not solve the fit problem.
How is availability checked for a nearby town?
Call with the actual address, task and any access restrictions. The area guides help you prepare the request; they do not guarantee technician availability, an office in that town or a particular arrival time.
