Difference Between Re Keying and Changing a Lock
If you’ve ever lost your keys to your house, you may be concerned that someone may find them and use them for illegal entry if they also happen to know who lost them and where you live. In such a case, you would call a locksmith to have your locks re-keyed, but you would not be changing your locks because there is no need.
If you were changing your locks you would be replacing all the hardware and, obviously, that is not the important feature for your security. You would only need to have new keys made for the lock or locks to be different from any you’ve lost. This is what is called re-keying.
There are also other instances when you would choose to re-key rather than change locks.
Such examples would be when buying a new home to make sure 
that any keys that may still have been kept by prior owners or may have been given to their family members will no longer be useful for entry to what is now your private domain and not theirs. Of course, if the locks of your new home are damaged or have been weakened due to age, then it is recommended to have the hardware changed as well, and this would involve changing the locks.
If you have recently moved into a home that was occupied by someone else before you, you will want to have a locksmith come to your new home to examine all the locks in your house. This is something every new homeowner who is not moving into a newly constructed home should do as matter of common protocol. A locksmith will be able to evaluate your needs to see whether the existing locks are adequate for your security and to determine whether you need re-keying or whether you need to have some of the locks changed.
