We live where we work, and that changes how a job goes. It means showing up in a marked van, wiping our boots, saying what we are doing before we do it, and leaving the door in better shape than we found it.

We would rather you call in November than in the first hard freeze.

If a break-in nearby, a move, a lost key or a departed employee has made you look twice at your door, this is the group to read. We explain ratings, bumping, drilling and reinforcement without drama, and help you choose where to spend.
Layer 1The key
You have lost count of how many people have had a key to your house over the years: cleaners, a contractor, a former partner, the previous owner's family. The lock still works, but you no longer know who else it works for.
Layer 2The cylinder
Every morning the front door key needs the same little dance: push in, lift, wiggle, turn. It has been getting worse for a year, and this week it took three tries in the cold before the deadbolt finally gave.
Layer 3The bolt and strike
Someone tried the door last winter. The frame took it, but the strike plate is bent, one screw hole is stripped, and the bolt sits in the pocket at a slight angle.
Layer 4The door and frame
You came home to find the front door standing open. The deadbolt is still thrown, but the strike plate is dangling from one screw and a fist-sized piece of the jamb is lying on the hall floor.

Step 1 of 5
Describe the property, the hardware and what has changed, and the visit starts from what you have seen.
Step 2 of 5
Has it been forced, does it drag, who has had keys? Those answers tell us whether the frame, the cylinder or the key list needs attention first.
Step 3 of 5
We explain, you decide, we work. If you would rather sleep on a bigger change, we do what is needed now and leave the rest for another visit.
Step 4 of 5
Every recommendation comes with the reason for it, in language that does not require you to know the trade. Ask why as often as you like.
Step 5 of 5
Tools packed, dust cleared, doors closed properly. We leave your home or business looking as it did, with the lock problem gone.

Rekeying keeps every lock on the door and changes only the pins inside the cylinder, so a new key works and the old ones stop. Replacing swaps the hardware itself. Commercial cylinders are made to be repinned many times, so rekeying suits any lock in sound condition and leaves the levers, trim and door untouched. Replacement is chosen door by door for cylinders that are worn, corroded or too light for what they protect.
It needs a plug that rotates without catching, pins that return under their springs, and a face free of heavy corrosion or cracks. Most commercial cylinders in daily use pass easily. Ones that are stiff, gritty or green with salt bloom can sometimes be cleaned and repinned, and the locksmith will say when a replacement for that door is the better value; the rest of the doors are rekeyed regardless.
A list of the doors and other locks you want included, a copy of the lease or the property manager's contact, every existing key you can find, and a rough idea of who needs to open what. Note which doors, if any, are interchangeable cores and where the control key is. Knowing your quiet hours and who opens up in the morning helps the locksmith plan the order of work and the key handover.
It means your key can only be copied through the locksmith who manages your system, after checking that the person asking is on your list of authorised names. Blanks for the keyway are not sold to hardware stores or kiosks while the patent lasts. Each key is numbered and recorded, so you know how many exist. For a home that ends the worry about old copies; for a business it turns a lost staff key into a known, manageable event.
