Keep the character.
Change the key.
An older lock isn’t automatically a bad lock. Rekeying changes who can enter without replacing working hardware. For a worn mechanism, a careful repair may be the right place to start.

LOCAL RESEARCH / Oviedo
Local context
Florida's Department of Business and Professional Regulation runs a public licence search covering the professions and businesses the department regulates. If a provider quotes a state licence number for security or electrical work, the number can be checked there — and it is fair to ask what the licence actually covers, since the search only reflects professions DBPR regulates. Local registration and insurance are separate questions worth asking about as well.
Source ↗Planning your work
A Florida law effective 1 July 2026 requires local governments to exempt work on single-family residential property valued at $7,500 or less from the building permit requirement, but the exemption excludes any electrical, plumbing, structural, mechanical or gas work and does not apply in flood hazard areas. Much lock, door-hardware and entry-security work falls into one of those excluded categories, so the exemption is narrower than it first reads. Oviedo is in Seminole County; confirm with the county or city building department which office reviews the address and what it now asks for.

A LITTLE CLARITY
Good questions.
Straight answers.
Can a lock be rekeyed instead of replaced?
Often, if the existing hardware is in good condition and the keyway is suitable. Rekeying changes the internal pins so old keys stop working. A damaged mechanism may need repair or replacement.
What information helps with a car key request?
Have the vehicle make, model, year and your location ready. Say whether every key is lost or you need a spare. Ownership needs to be verified before key work.
Will opening the door damage the lock?
The appropriate opening method depends on the hardware and its condition. Ask what method is proposed and whether any replacement will be needed before authorizing work.
