When you need to change who has access to your Lewiston, ME home, you have two primary options: rekeying the locks or replacing them entirely. The team at Blackwood Mobile Locksmith can help you decide which is right for you.
Rekeying is a process where a locksmith changes the internal pinning of your existing lock cylinder. The old key will no longer fit or turn the lock. The technician then creates a new key that matches the new pin configuration. As a result of this, you keep your existing doorknobs and deadbolts, but they are operated by a completely new key. It's like getting a new lock without changing the hardware.
Lock replacement is the process of completely removing the old lock hardware (knob, lever, deadbolt) and installing a brand new unit. With this, you get entirely new hardware, which may have a different style, finish, or security level, along with new keys.
Rekeying is the ideal solution in many common situations for Lewiston, ME homeowners. Choose to rekey if:
Sometimes, a full replacement is necessary or more desirable. Choose to replace your locks if:

The Lewiston area traces its roots to 1669 with the early presence of the Androscoggin tribe (the namesake of the county in which the city resides). In the late 18th century, in 1795, Lewiston was incorporated as Lewistown. The presence of the Androscoggin River and Lewistown Falls made the town an attractive area for manufacturing and hydro-power businesses. The rise of Boston rail and textile tycoon Benjamin Bates saw rapid economic growth rivaling that of Cambridge, Worcester, and Concord. Irish immigrants were recruited to build the railroad links and dig the canals for the textile mills. The Irish stayed, and worked the mills and established flourishing businesses, as evidenced by the McGillicuddy, Callahan, and other Blocks and the St.Joseph's and St.Patrick's churches. In the 1850 Census Lewiston was fully 23% Irish born. The increase in economic stimulus prompted thousands of Quebecers to migrate, causing a population boom; the populace rose from 1,801 in 1840 to 21,701 in 1890. In 1855, local preacher Oren Burbank Cheney founded the Maine State Seminary, the first coeducational university in New England and one of the first universities to admit black students before the Emancipation Proclamation. Lewistown quickly became associated with the liberal arts and was incorporated as "Lewiston" in 1864, a year before the college was chartered as Bates College.
