Rekey locks in Beverly Hills costs between $85 and $220 for most homes, depending on the cylinder type and how many locks you’re changing at once. What makes this city different is the hardware itself: homes here run Medeco, Baldwin, and Mul-T-Lock cylinders far more often than standard builder-grade Kwikset, and the older Spanish and Tudor estates in the Flats often have custom mortise locks that need a technician who actually knows what they’re looking at. Call (877) 358-5506 for an honest quote, and we’ll tell you the full price before anyone gets in the truck.
True Blue Locksmith has served Beverly Hills since 2017. We handle rekey work on Schlage, Kwikset, Yale, Baldwin, and Medeco locks, which covers the vast majority of what you’ll find on homes here, from a 1920s Flats estate to a mid-century hillside above Sunset.
Why Beverly Hills Homes Are Different
Beverly Hills is a high-net-worth security market. The work here is dominated by gated estates, luxury auto key and fob programming, and hardened residential hardware. Much of what we do happens in the Flats and the 90210 Hills, where clients expect discreet, appointment-based service and brand-matched hardware rather than whatever cylinder fits the existing bore.
The housing stock runs from 1920s and 1930s Spanish Colonial and Tudor estates in the Flats to mid-century and contemporary hillside homes north of Sunset. Many properties have custom iron gates, pool enclosures, and detached guest houses. A single front-door rekey is the exception here, not the rule. More often, jobs involve gate operators, multi-door master-keying, and high-security cylinders across a property with six or eight entry points.
Climate plays a role too. The dry, mild Southern California weather means we rarely see freeze-related lock failure, but sun exposure and marine-layer moisture do their own damage. Wood doors dry out and warp, which throws off latch alignment. Exterior gate hardware, especially iron work near the coast, rusts over time and seizes up. These are the conditions that shape a Beverly Hills rekey, and they’re why we adjust our approach for this city.
Styles & brands we work with







Our Main Beverly Hills Services
Two service calls dominate the phones in Beverly Hills: car key replacement for European and high-end vehicles, and emergency lockouts that often happen at a property gate or guest-house door rather than the front entry. Our brand experience with Medeco, Mul-T-Lock, and Sargent means the technician who shows up at your home can also handle what’s parked in your driveway.
Car Key Replacement in Beverly Hills
Beverly Hills driveways hold a lot of German metal: Mercedes, BMW, Porsche, Audi. These vehicles use encrypted transponder keys and proximity fobs that can’t be cut at a hardware store. We program replacement keys on site, so you don’t have to tow the car to a dealership and wait a week. The job usually takes well under an hour, and we stock blank keys and fobs for most European, Asian, and domestic makes. Car Key Replacement in Beverly Hills

Emergency Locksmith in Beverly Hills
In the hills north of Sunset, steep driveways and gated motor courts mean many lockouts happen at the property gate or a guest-house door rather than the front door. We carry gate-operator and intercom knowledge on every call, so we’re not just picking locks – we’re opening the way you actually enter your property. Whether you locked yourself out of a guest house on Mulholland or came home to a seized gate latch, we respond to urgent calls and get you back in without damaging the hardware.

Rekey Locks in Beverly Hills

Rekeying in Beverly Hills is usually about control, not breakage: a new housekeeper, a recent tenant turnover, a contractor who still has a key, or a handbag lost somewhere on Rodeo Drive. The fix is to change the keying of the existing lock cylinders so that old keys stop working and one new key handles everything you want it to handle. In a city where domestic staff turnover is routine, we rekey more Beverly Hills homes after personnel changes than after break-ins.
Because so many homes here were built in the 1920s and 1930s or have been extensively remodeled, the job often involves hardened cylinders and non-standard mortise bodies rather than simple knob locks. We work across the full Rekey Locks range, from a standard Kwikset cylinder to a high-security Medeco or Mul-T-Lock that needs a registered key card to duplicate.

What it costs in Beverly Hills
A single lock rekey in Beverly Hills typically runs $85 to $160, with the total depending on cylinder type and how many locks are on the property.
How we do it
We remove the cylinder, swap the existing pins for new ones matched to a fresh key, and reinstall the cylinder so the old key no longer turns.
Rekey Door Lock

FAQs About Locksmith in Beverly Hills
Most lockouts in Beverly Hills get a technician on site within 30 to 60 minutes. Gate and intercom lockouts may take a little longer because they need a tech with gate-operator experience, not just a pick set. Call (877) 358-5506 and we’ll give you an honest ETA for your address.
Rekeying your own door hardware does not require city permits. Some gated communities and HOA-governed estates in the hills have rules about gate or common-area locks, but your private front door is yours to rekey whenever you like.
