Rekeying is one of the most common locksmith services — and one of the most misunderstood when it comes to pricing. Here is an honest breakdown of what house rekeying costs in Prosper TX in 2026, what factors affect the price, and what you get for your money.
Rekey Pricing in Prosper TX (2026)
| Service | Typical Cost |
|---|---|
| Single cylinder rekey | $25–$50 |
| Front door (deadbolt + knob) | $45–$85 |
| Full house exterior (3–4 doors) | $100–$175 |
| Move-in rekey package (all exterior, keyed alike) | $125–$200 |
| Service call / trip charge | $35–$65 (often waived with job) |
Prices include labor. New key copies are typically included (2–4 copies). Additional copies cost $5–$15 each.
What Affects the Price
- Number of locks: More cylinders = higher total cost, but cost per lock often drops on larger jobs
- Lock brand: Kwikset and Schlage rekey kits are standard stock. Unusual or high-security brands may add cost if special pinning kits are required
- Time of day: After-hours or weekend service typically adds 20–30% to the base price
- Keyed alike: Keying all locks to one key adds minimal cost and is worth it for convenience
- Lock condition: A damaged or badly worn lock may need replacement instead of rekeying
Rekey vs. Replace: Which Is More Economical?
Rekeying costs roughly 40–60% less than lock replacement for equivalent security. Replace locks when:
- The existing hardware is worn, damaged, or low quality
- You want to upgrade to a higher security grade or smart lock
- The lock mechanism itself has failed
Rekey when the existing hardware is in good condition and you simply need to invalidate old keys.
