Rekey, Repair, or Replace the Corbin Russwin Lock?

Frequently Asked Questions
Can the existing Corbin Russwin cylinder and keyway stay on the door while you rekey it?
When the Corbin Russwin cylinder and keyway is compatible with rekeying and still operates correctly, we can often leave that Corbin Russwin hardware on the door. We inspect the installed lock first; a damaged Corbin Russwin cylinder or lock body may call for repair or replacement instead.
What happens to the old Corbin Russwin key after the cylinder is rekeyed?
After the selected Corbin Russwin cylinder is rekeyed, the former key should no longer operate that serviced opening. Any Corbin Russwin lock on another door keeps its existing keying unless it is separately included in the visit.
What if I no longer have a working Corbin Russwin key?
Keep a working Corbin Russwin key when you have one because it helps us identify and test the Corbin Russwin cylinder and keyway. If every usable key is gone, say that when you schedule so the Corbin Russwin request is planned around a no-working-key situation.
Could an existing Corbin Russwin master-key or controlled-key setup affect this rekey?
The Corbin Russwin cylinder and keyway may belong to a controlled, master-keyed, or multi-door arrangement. Before changing that Corbin Russwin component, we need to know which doors and users are supposed to retain their current access.
What if the Corbin Russwin key turns poorly before the rekey?
A rekey changes access through the Corbin Russwin cylinder and keyway; it does not automatically repair a worn Corbin Russwin lock, a binding latch, a bolt problem, or door alignment. We test the Corbin Russwin hardware first so the mechanical issue is not mistaken for a keying issue.
Why does the exact Corbin Russwin core or cylinder matter before rekeying?
The exact Corbin Russwin cylinder and key system matter because the opening may use conventional, master-keyed, or restricted keying. We identify the hardware before changing one opening inside a larger system.
