Lock Change — in Dubai
Just moved in, lost a key, or had a break-in? Change the lock and old keys stop working. We replace or rekey door locks in Dubai homes, often in one visit. A lock change starts at AED 100.
New Lock. New Keys.Old Keys Stop Working.
You can't know who still has a key to your home. A past tenant, a builder or a lost keyring could open your door. Changing the lock fixes that for good. If your lock is still strong, rekeying can be cheaper, and if it only sticks, lock repair may be all you need.

Dubai homes use a few main lock types. Flats often have mortise locks set inside the door. Villas often have cylinder locks and deadbolts. We work with all of them and carry common sizes with us.

Lock Change Questions
What people in Dubai ask us before changing their locks. Call us if you have a different question.
+971 52 106 9496- 01
How much does a lock change cost in Dubai?
- A lock change starts at AED 100. The full price depends on the new lock, because a high-security lock costs more than a basic one. We tell you the price before we start.
- 02
What is the difference between rekeying and changing a lock?
- Rekeying keeps your lock but changes the small pins inside, so old keys stop working. Changing means a whole new lock. Rekeying is usually cheaper if your lock is still strong.
- 03
Should I change the locks when I move into a new home?
- Yes. You never know how many old keys are out there. Changing or rekeying on move-in day means only your family can get in.
- 04
Can a tenant change the locks in Dubai?
- Check your tenancy contract and ask your landlord first. Many landlords agree as long as they get a copy of the new key. We can cut that copy for you.
- 05
Can you change my lock after a break-in?
- Yes. We work 24/7, so we can change a damaged lock at night. We also check the door and frame, and can add a deadbolt for extra safety.
- 06
How long does a lock change take?
- Most single-lock changes take under an hour. If the door or frame needs work, it can take longer, and we tell you before we start.
- 07
Can one key open all my doors?
- Often, yes. We can fit locks that use the same key, so you carry one key for the front door, back door and gate.
- 08
Can I get extra keys for my new lock?
- Yes. Tell us how many people need a key and we cut them on the spot. Later, our key duplication service can cut more.
