Our locksmith services
We split our work into emergency, residential, automotive and commercial, but plenty of jobs sit between them. A landlord's rekey is residential work done with commercial thinking. A car key made in a driveway is automotive work with a home visit. Ask, and we will place it.
Lockouts
Lockout Services
The emergency pages describe openings for homes, shops and vehicles, extraction of snapped keys, freeing locks that have seized, and re-securing a door after forced entry. Every visit starts with an identity check, because entry work protects the people inside as much as the person outside.
Home Lockout ServiceThe keypad on the smart lock blinks once and goes dark.
Business Lockout ServiceThe manager who holds the only set of office keys is on a plane.
Broken Key ExtractionIn the parking lot your car key snapped in the driver's door.
Break-In Damage Lock RepairThey did not get in.
Seized & Jammed Lock OpeningThe lock works, but only if you lean on the door with your hip while turning the key.
Lost Keys — Same-Visit RekeyThe keys fell out of a gym bag somewhere between the arena and the parking lot.
Change or rekey
Change or Rekey Locks
Keys multiply. One for the front, one for the side, another for the garage, a padlock on the shed.
Lock RekeyingThe builder handed over your new home with a stack of identical keys, and you know the framing crew, the painters and the flooring installers all used a construction key during the build. The doors are brand new, but…
Deadbolt InstallationThe bolt on the front door is keyed on both sides. Getting out at night means finding the key in the dark, and with a toddler in the house you have decided the inside should turn by hand.
Lock Replacement & UpgradeThe house is fifteen years old and every exterior door still wears the light hardware the builder fitted: a short bolt, a thin strike held by two small screws, and a knob lock that never suited a street entrance.
Vintage Mortise Lock ServiceAfter a wet summer the entry door sits lower in its frame. The lock works perfectly when the door is open, but with it shut you have to lift the handle and shoulder the door to get the deadbolt to throw.
Smart Lock InstallationThere are four copies of the front-door key floating around: one with the cleaner, one with a neighbour, one on a hook at your parents' place, and one you honestly cannot account for. You would rather hand out codes you…
Gate & Building Entry LocksThe driveway gate drags a groove into the gravel every time it swings, and the latch stopped catching weeks ago. Now it sits propped shut with a brick, waiting for anyone to walk through and forget to prop it back.
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.
High security
High Security Locks
Upgrading to high security often does not mean new locks. Many quality cylinders retrofit into the deadbolt or lever you already have, so the door keeps its look and gains a mechanism that resists picking, bumping and drilling.

Commercial
Commercial Locks
From a back door that never quite latches to a keying plan for a whole building, commercial services deal with the practical side of running a premises. We explain the choices, work around your schedule and leave a clear record of who holds what.
Car keys
Car Keys
The automotive group is arranged by what has gone wrong: you are outside a locked car, you have no working key, you have a key that does not start the engine, or the lock or ignition itself has failed. Find the page that matches and it explains the visit.
Car Lockout ServiceYou reached the parking lot after a long hike and the pocket that held your car key is empty.
Car Key ReplacementMinus twenty outside, the fob button does nothing, and the door keyhole has a crust of road salt over it because you have not…
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…
Transponder Key ProgrammingThe blade snapped off flush with the door lock last winter, and the shop that cut a replacement only matched the metal shape.
Ignition Lock RepairAfter a slushy week the key barely reaches accessory before it stalls, gritty and reluctant, where it used to move cleanly…
Vehicle Lock RepairThe car came with a second key that grinds and catches in the rear door, unlike the smooth key you use every day on the front two.
