How we can help
Choosing a service is easier when you know what each one actually changes. Rekeying changes the key, replacement changes the hardware, repair keeps what you have working, and installation adds something new. The sections below sort our work along those lines.

Lockout Services
After a break-in the door is evidence, then it is a problem. Once you are ready, we repair what was damaged, replace what cannot be trusted and rekey what might have been compromised.

Commercial Locks
A business that has grown from one unit to three usually has three key rings and no plan. A master key system tidies that into a single hierarchy, and the pages here explain the design, the installation and how new doors are added later.

Before any key is cut or programmed for a vehicle we check that the person asking has a claim to it. Registration or ownership paper and matching photo identification are what we ask for.
