🔐 Why Every Business in Waltham Should Rekey Their Locks After Staff Changes
If your Waltham business has had a staff change, a contractor finish a job, or a key go missing, your building’s security may be compromised — even if the doors are “locked.”
At Star Locks, we help local business owners and property managers rekey their existing locks so former employees, tenants, or vendors can no longer access the property.
🏢 When Should You Rekey a Commercial Lock?
We recommend rekeying when:
- A manager, staff member, or tenant leaves
- A master key is unaccounted for
- A vendor or subcontractor had temporary access
- You’ve taken over a new lease or storefront
- You’re unsure how many copies of your keys exist
Just this month, we rekeyed an office suite on Main Street near Waltham Common after a supervisor with a master key resigned. The business owner didn’t want to replace all the hardware — just reset access. Within an hour, they had brand-new keys and full control.
🛠 How Commercial Rekeying Works
With rekeying, you don’t replace the lock — just the internal pins.
Here’s what we do:
- Disassemble the existing cylinder
- Remove the old pins and insert a new combination
- Provide new matching keys
- Reinstall and test the lock to ensure smooth operation
We offer this service for:
- Offices
- Retail storefronts
- Warehouses
- Medical clinics
- Property management buildings

🔑 Master Key Systems Also Available
Want better control across multiple suites or access points? We can set up a master key system so each staff member has access only to the doors they need — and management has one master key for everything.
