Why customers in Kannapolis call us for rekeying
Rekey demand in Kannapolis comes straight out of the town's turnover. The redeveloped mill core keeps producing move-ins — new apartments and renovated homes changing hands — and every closing or lease turnover raises the same question: who still has a key? Sellers, prior tenants, contractors from the renovation, a neighbor from years back. A rekey answers it from $125, keeping your existing hardware and killing every old copy at once. Downtown adds the commercial side: small businesses around Cannon Village rekey after staff changes so a departed employee's key stops working before the next shift opens up. One visit, one new key that runs everything, and a written record if you want one for the file.
How we reach Kannapolis
Rekeys are usually scheduled rather than emergency — we'll book a window that suits you and arrive via Hwy 29 or I-85 from our Cornelius base. Since Kannapolis borders Concord, we frequently line up rekey stops in both towns on one trip, which is exactly why Kannapolis scheduling stays flexible most of the year.

Common rekeying calls near Kannapolis
Renovated home near Downtown Kannapolis
Buyers closed on a renovated mill-era house and got a fistful of keys at the table — but the seller admitted the renovation crew, the stager, and a previous tenant had all held copies at some point. Nobody could say how many were still floating around.
Scheduled for the morning after closing. Rekeyed the front deadbolt, back door deadbolt, and side-entry knob to one fresh key, cut spares for the family, and tested every door before leaving. Total: $165 for three cylinders.
Storefront near Cannon Village
A downtown shop owner parted ways with an employee who never returned the key. The front door and back stockroom door shared that key, and the owner didn't want to spend a single night wondering about the inventory.
Booked an appointment after closing time. Both cylinders rekeyed to a new key, four staff copies cut and logged, and the old key confirmed dead in both doors before we left. Total: $110 for the two cylinders.
