Approximate. Technician confirms final price on site.

Why Change Locks Between Tenants?

Because you have no idea how many key copies the last tenant made. They might have given one to a boyfriend, a dog walker, a neighbor, or a house cleaner. Those keys still work after they leave. Rekeying takes 20 minutes and costs less than one month's insurance deductible.

Florida Statute Chapter 83.53 gives landlords the right to change locks between tenancies. It is not legally required, but smart property managers do it every single time. Triton Locksmith Plantation works with over 30 property management companies across Plantation and Broward County who rekey between every tenant.

Should You Rekey or Replace?

Rekey if the hardware is solid. Replace if it is worn or the tenant damaged it. Most tenant turnovers need rekeying only ($85-$125 per unit). But if the deadbolt is loose, the knob wobbles, or the door frame is damaged, replacement hardware makes more sense. Triton Locksmith Plantation carries both options on the van.

  • Rekey ($85-$125/unit): Triton Locksmith Plantation changes the internal pins so the old key stops working and new keys are cut. The lock body stays in place. Takes 15-20 minutes per door. This is the standard choice for routine tenant turnovers.
  • Replace ($125-$175/unit): Triton Locksmith Plantation installs a new Schlage or Kwikset lockset. Necessary when hardware is damaged, outdated, or the property is being upgraded. New deadbolt, new knob or lever, new keys.

How Does Tenant Lock Change Work with Master Key Systems?

The master key keeps working. Only the tenant's individual key changes. Triton Locksmith Plantation keeps master key charts on file for every building we service. When you call for a tenant turnover, we pull up the chart, verify the hierarchy, and pin the new cylinder to match the existing master key. The new tenant gets a unique key that opens only their unit. The master key still opens everything.

This is the standard approach for multi-tenant buildings, apartment complexes, and office suites. Property managers get one phone call, same-day service, and zero disruption to the master key system. Triton Locksmith Plantation keeps pin charts on file permanently, so even if years pass between rekeying requests, the system documentation is ready when you need it.

What Does a Tenant Lock Change Include?

  • Front door deadbolt and knob/lever: Both rekeyed or replaced
  • Back/patio door (if applicable): Sliding door lock, secondary deadbolt, or knob
  • 2-3 new keys per lock: Cut on-site and tested
  • Lock function test: Deadbolt throw, latch engagement, strike plate alignment
  • Master key verification: If the building has a master system, we confirm the master key works on the new pins
  • Condition report: We flag damaged hardware, worn strikes, or door alignment issues that should be addressed
