Services for Landlords, PMs, and Multi-Unit Owners
- Unit turnover rekey — After move-out, we rekey tenant cylinders so prior occupants cannot return with old keys.
- Lost tenant keys — Regain entry when authorized, then rekey so the lost set is useless.
- Master-key coordination — Keep office and maintenance keys working while a single unit gets a new change key. See master key systems.
- Common-area and laundry doors — Rekey or change hardware that tenants share, without mixing those keys into unit sets.
- Small commercial suites — Office and retail turnover uses the same pinning and key-control habits as apartments.
A Straightforward Turnover Process
We keep the process high-level and practical — no invented service-level agreements:
- One call or quote request — Property address, unit numbers ready, and whether a master key exists.
- Access verification — We work for the owner or authorized manager, not an unverified caller.
- On-site pinning and keys — Rekey where hardware is sound; recommend a lock change only when the cylinder or door is worn or damaged.
- Key handoff — New tenant and office keys are cut and tested on the locks we serviced.
Several vacant units at the same site can often be handled in one visit when they are actually ready. Call to coordinate; we do not publish turnaround guarantees.

Property Manager FAQs
What does a turnover rekey include?
We change the pins in the tenant locks so old keys fail, cut keys for the new occupant and the office, and flag hardware that should be replaced instead of rekeyed. Exact scope depends on how many doors and whether a master key must still work.
Can you rekey one unit without breaking the building master?
That is the point of a properly pinned system. We plan the change key so managers keep master access. If the existing system was never documented, we may need to map it first — see master key systems.
A tenant lost every key. What next?
If nobody can enter, treat it as a lockout, then rekey. Call (405) 348-8688. We confirm authorization before changing locks on a rental.
Are you licensed?
Yes. Oklahoma License #1065. Fully mobile across the OKC metro since 1986.
