Rekeying After a Home Purchase
Buying an established home in Reston often comes with an unknown history of past keys previous owners, contractors, house sitters. A full rekey resets that uncertainty, and for larger properties we make sure every entrance is included, not just the front door.
Multi-Entry Security Planning
Larger lots typically mean more doors: a mudroom entry, a garage service door, a basement walkout, sometimes a separate structure like a guest house. We walk the property with you to identify every entry point that needs attention, rather than assuming the front door is the only priority.
Upgrading Older Hardware on Established Homes
Many Reston homes have been in place for decades, and original lock hardware doesn’t always hold up to modern security expectations. We can upgrade aging locks to higher-security hardware while keeping the look consistent with the home’s existing style.
Detached Structures and Outbuildings
Guest houses, pool houses, and detached garages often get overlooked in a home’s overall security plan, even though they have their own doors and locks. We include these structures as part of a full residential assessment when asked.
Security Upgrades That Fit the Property
On established Reston homes, a security upgrade should fit the door, hardware finish, and layout of the property. We recommend changes that improve security without making the entry look mismatched or overbuilt.

Q: Should I rekey every entrance, or just the front door?
A: For a complete rekey, include each exterior entrance you want secured under the new key plan rather than changing only the front door.
Q: Can you match new lock hardware to an older home's existing style?
A: In many cases, yes. We’ll look at your current hardware and finish and recommend options that fit rather than clash.
Q: Do you handle locks on detached garages or guest houses?
A: Yes, any structure with its own door and lock can be included as part of a residential security assessment.
Q: How long does a whole property rekey typically take?
A: Timing depends on the number and type of locks involved. Call with the approximate number of doors and we’ll give you a realistic estimate for the visit.
Q: Can you upgrade security without changing the look of the home?
A: In many cases, yes. We can look for cylinders, finishes, and hardware options that improve security while staying consistent with the home’s existing style.
