Every kind of lock, one call
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.
Lockouts
Lockout Services
Emergencies do not wait for a convenient hour, and neither does the worry. This group of services covers openings, extractions and temporary securing after damage, always with a check of your right to enter and a clear word about what comes next.
Home Lockout ServiceSomeone pushed the privacy button on the bathroom door and pulled it shut behind them, leaving the room locked and empty.
Business Lockout ServiceThe heavy glass door has been scraping the threshold for weeks.
Broken Key ExtractionOvernight the deadbolt froze, and this morning the key would only turn partway.
Break-In Damage Lock RepairThe patio slider is sitting crooked on its track.
Seized & Jammed Lock OpeningIt is the coldest morning of the winter and the key goes halfway into the side door and stops.
Lost Keys — Same-Visit RekeyYou were shovelling the driveway after dark and the ring must have slid out of your coat pocket somewhere under a metre of snow.

Change or Rekey Locks
Moving is the most common reason people call about their home. Nobody knows who has a copy of the key that came in the envelope.
Lock RekeyingEvery copy of your house key seems to work a little differently. One needs a jiggle, another sticks halfway, and the original wore down years ago.
Deadbolt InstallationThe back door has a deadbolt in name only: a short bolt, a thin brass strike held by two little screws, and a jamb you can flex with your palm. It was fine for a builder's showing.
Lock Replacement & UpgradeThe brass handleset has gone blotchy and green where the winter salt reaches it, and the coating on the deadbolt is lifting in flakes. It still locks, but it looks tired beside the fresh paint on the door.
Vintage Mortise Lock ServiceThe knob flops loose on its spindle and never springs back to level. When you turn it the latch pulls in, but you have to push the knob back yourself, and lately the latch has started staying inside the door instead of…
Smart Lock InstallationArthritis has made the small house key hard to grip and turn, especially with gloves on in January. Pressing a few buttons, or tapping a fob against the lock, would make coming home in winter far easier.
Gate & Building Entry LocksThe gate to the side yard used to close with a satisfying click. After a winter of frost heaving the fence post, the latch now sits a full inch below where the strike is waiting for it, and the gate swings free no…
Mailbox Lock ReplacementThe key still turns, but lately it spins a half-circle further than it used to before the little door lets go, and some mornings it takes a second try. The small cam lock inside is simply worn out.

Access control does not have to mean a control room. For a small office it can be a single keypad on the staff door with a code that changes whenever a staff member moves on.

Car Keys
A working spare key is the simplest protection a driver can have. If yours is lost, damaged or never existed, the spare key duplication page explains how we make one from the key you have or from the vehicle itself.
Car Lockout ServiceThe trunk is full of groceries, the cart is back in its corral, and the keys are sitting in the cup holder in plain view.
Car Key ReplacementThe engine cranks, catches for a second and dies, and a small key-shaped light keeps blinking on the dash.
Spare Car Key DuplicationTwo coworkers share one delivery van and one key between them, trading it at the start and end of every shift in a parking lot.
Key Fob ProgrammingEvery fob for the car disappeared at once inside a bag that was never recovered, and the vehicle now sits in the driveway with no…
