My roomate lost a house key so I want to rekey all outside door locks (4 of them). I went to home depot and found this:
It comes with a bunch of pins and 3 pre-cut keys and cost only $13. Perfect, I thought, until I noticed the "valleys" on the keys have very little height variation. This means the lock would be easy to pick. I examined the other sets and they were all similarly made. My existing house key has more height variations.
The rekeying kit made by schlage cost $70 (!) and doesn't come with precut keys. How do I get the keys?
Is there a rekeying kit with pre-cut keys, strong teeth pattern, and cost less?
