les clés des sérrures doivent être changées à ce moment
Procédure habituelle de précaution, ce sont les barillets qu'on change.

: the point is to change the configuration of the lock - the fact that a new key is then needed is only the consequence; all that assuming that any tangible "key" is needed AT ALL - it could very well be a codelock

: 99% the case here - codelocks are widely used exactly because of the simplicity of "re-keying" them and because no physical/tangible keys are needed ...

Rekeying
Rekeying normally refers to the ability to change a lock so that a different key may operate it. Rekeying is done when a lock owner may be concerned that unauthorized persons have keys to the lock, so the lock may be altered by a locksmith so that only new keys will work. Rekeying is the relatively simple process of changing the tumbler or wafer configuration of the lock so a new key will function while the old one will not. Rekeying is done without replacement of the entire lock.
Rekeying was first invented in 1836 by Solomon Andrews, a New Jersey locksmith. His lock had adjustable tumblers and keys, allowing the owner to rekey it at any time. Later in the 1850s, inventors Andrews and Newell patented removable tumblers which could be taken apart and scrambled. The keys had bits that were interchangeable, matching varying tumbler configurations. This arrangement later became the basis for combination locks.[1]
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rekeying
That's the older meaning of "re-keying a lock", that ".. later (= nowadays) became the basis for combination locks.
So, today "re-keying" would be changing the codes that need to be "keyed in" to open a combination lock / a codelock.
