Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is a keyless electronic door lock?

Door locks are traditionally opened using keys, but there are many keyless lock options. There are biometric, keypad, and key fob lock options. These make it easier to control access to your property without the worry of losing a key or a key breaking in the lock.


  • Can I have one key that opens all doors in my house?

Yes. If all your door locks use keys to open them, they can be rekeyed to use the same key.


  • Will my lock work after you open it?

Yes, your door lock will still work after we get it open. Lockpicking does not damage the lock. The only exception is if the lock is already damaged or we must drill into the lock.


  • When should I rekey my home locks?

There are many instances where rekeying your locks is a good idea. If you bought a new home, had tenants move out, or experienced a break-in, you should have your locks rekeyed. This is the best way to prevent unauthorized entry into your home.


  • Can you reset safe combinations?

Yes, our commercial locksmiths can change safe combinations if you have forgotten them or want to prevent others who may have the combination from accessing the safe.


  • Can a broken key be removed from a lock?

Never leave a key inside a lock. Taking it out when it is broken can be challenging, if you cannot do it, give us a call. Our locksmith will come to you and safely remove the broken key from the locking mechanism. We can then inspect the lock to figure out why the key got stuck and replace the broken key with a new one.
