Rekeying a home in Indiana typically costs $20–$50 per lock, with a service call fee of $30–$60. Rekeying an entire house (3–5 locks) usually runs $100–$200 total. This is significantly less expensive than replacing locks and achieves the same security benefit: old keys no longer work.

Rekeying is almost always the better choice after moving into a new home. It costs 30–60% less than replacing locks, takes under 15 minutes per lock, and achieves the same result — all previous keys become useless. Only replace locks if they are damaged, outdated, or you want to upgrade hardware.
