Rekeying Locks in South Jordan: New Construction Considerations

South Jordan's Daybreak and surrounding new-build communities deliver homes with builder-grade locks and a master construction key. Here's why you should rekey before moving in.

The Builder Master Key Issue

New construction keys often share a 'CMK' (construction master) cylinder design that allows multiple master keys to operate during the build. Rekeying disables that entirely.

Sub-Contractors and Spare Keys

Even after the builder hands over keys, sub-contractor keys can still be in circulation. Rekey resets the entire access universe to keys you control.

What's Included

We rekey all exterior cylinders to a single new key. Most South Jordan homes have 4–6 exterior locks; the entire visit usually finishes in 45–60 minutes.

Cost Range

$95–$185 for whole-home rekey in South Jordan, depending on lock count and brand.

Quick Tips

  • →Rekey on closing day, before unpacking
  • →Match all locks to a single new key
  • →Keep one copy off-site for emergencies
