Rekey a lock
Every lock cylinder has small pins inside it. When we Rekey the lock it means that we take the old pins out and instead put different pins inside.
By doing that we actually change the combination of the lock. Now the old key will not be useful, will not turn the cylinder, and therefore will
not open the lock. When the Rekey is done, the old lock remains the same and you will not see any change in the appearance; however, the key will
not be the same.
