Commercial Rekey Services in Orlando, FL
Commercial rekeying changes the pin configuration inside your existing locks so every old key becomes a blank — the hardware stays, the key control is new. It is the standard move when a tenant leaves, an employee with keys is let go, or you take over a space and have no idea how many copies are out there. The work happens at your doors: lever sets, mortise cylinders, rim cylinders, deadbolts, and interchangeable cores.

What this service includes
- Re-pinning of lever, mortise, rim, and deadbolt cylinders
- Interchangeable core swaps where the hardware supports it
- Keying doors alike, or into a master key hierarchy
- New keys cut and tested on site
- Storeroom, gate, and padlock rekeying where supported
Interchangeable core (IC) hardware is the fast lane: the core pops out and a rekeyed one goes in, so a suite or a whole floor is back under new keys in minutes — with the old cores re-pinned and kept as spares.

How much does commercial rekeying cost?
Typically $25–$60 per cylinder plus a trip charge in the Orlando area — lever sets and deadbolts at the lower end, mortise and restricted cylinders at the higher end. A small suite with a handful of doors is a same-morning job; larger floors are quoted per door list before work begins.
How is commercial rekeying different from residential?
The hardware is different: lever sets, mortise locks, rim cylinders, and interchangeable cores instead of home deadbolts. Commercial jobs also tend to connect to keying structure — doors keyed alike by zone, or pinned into a master key hierarchy — which is planned rather than improvised.
Can my locks be rekeyed into a master key system later?
Yes, and it is worth planning now. Rekeying is the right moment to choose a keyway and hierarchy the system can grow into — new tenants and new doors pin into the same structure instead of requiring a restart. See the master key system page for how the levels work.
How fast can you rekey a suite or storefront?
A few cylinders is usually same-day — often within the same visit that started as something else. Interchangeable cores make it nearly instant: the new core goes in and the door is under new keys before the technician leaves the room.
How long does a commercial rekey take?
Standard cylinders run about 15–30 minutes each; interchangeable cores swap in seconds. A small suite is a single-morning job; whole floors are scheduled against a door list and priced per cylinder before work starts.
Do you rekey cabinet, desk, and padlocks too?
Where the lock supports it — many cabinet and desk systems rekey like door cylinders, and storeroom padlocks can be rekeyed or matched to the door key. Cheap sealed padlocks are the exception: replacing those costs less than rekeying, and you will be told which is which.
