Frequently Asked Questions

  • Yes, assuming that the existing key is compatible with the lock keyway. An experienced, certified, skilled locksmith can make a lock work with that key. Professional locksmiths have the tools, training, and proficiency to make that lock work with your key by looking at the key’s shape and figuring out the length of the pin to match the lock.

  • Yes, changing or rekeying the door locks upon losing the house keys is crucial. Not doing so leaves the home vulnerable to break-ins and security to chance. Changing locks eliminates the vulnerabilities of dangers that accompany lost house keys. A professional locksmith can quickly rekey or change the locks to restore home safety and security.

  • Yes, usually, it is possible in most instances to keep the same key after replacing a lock. But you will have to make sure the new lock is compatible with your existing key. Our locksmiths can help you get the right lock.

  • The front door needs a sturdy and durable lock to withstand the elements and keep potential intruders at bay. While various front door locks like smart, electronic, lever, and handle locks exist, deadbolts made of quality materials are usually considered the most secure. They are most commonly used to secure exterior house doors. They are available in single and double-cylinder styles, and grade 1 doors provide the highest security.

  • Internal door locks are easy to use and provide privacy but are less force-resistant than external locks. They are designed to be used on the internal doors within a home. Knobs, levers, magnetic locks, and latches can be used as internal door locks.
