FAQ's

A locksmith is a highly trained and educated security professional. This is not a term that should be tossed around lightly, there are far too many companies and technicians that call themselves locksmiths, when in fact they neither have the training or the professional ethics to do so. According to the Department of Criminal Justice in Virginia, the term “Locksmith” means any individual that performs locksmith services or advertises or represents to the general public that the individual is a locksmith even if the specific term locksmith is substituted with any other term by which a reasonable person could construe that the individual possesses special skills relating to locks or locking devices, including use of the words, lock technician, lockman, safe technician, safe man, boxman, unlocking technician, lock installer, lock opener, physical security technician or similar descriptions.

Typically, residential locksmith customers are in need of a lock rekey.  A lock rekey is one of the most common services a local locksmith can provide because it is cost effective when compared to completely replacing your locking hardware.  Rekeying locks is sometimes referred to as changing locks but it is best to clarify which service is needed when scheduling the appointment with your local locksmith.
Two of the more common reasons for having your home locks rekeyed are: you’ve moved into a new home, or you realize you’ve given copies of your keys to too many people.  A quick and simple service call to a local locksmith can fix both these situations and make sure your home is completely secure.

So what exactly is a lock rekey? It’s the process of removing your lock from the door, disassembling it, removing all the bottom pin tumblers and replacing them with new pin tumblers of different heights so that a new key will create a totally different shear line.  This means your old key will no longer work your lock. In fact, after taking apart your lock, many locksmiths will check the entire inside of your lock cylinder to ensure it has all top pins and springs.  They’ll then lubricate the lock before putting it back together. Locksmiths are very familiar with the multitude of different residential locks and keyways out there and they’ll make sure your lock is as secure as possible.

Key Duplication: Need a key in a minute? It takes just 5-20 seconds to cut a standard house key. Find a locksmith locally and visit their office or have a technician visit your house. Most locksmiths have key duplicating machines right in their truck.

Once our locksmith is at your door, they can integrate electronic locks, access control, and cameras so that everything communicates as a single security system thus protecting everyone you care about.

Access Control Systems & Electronic Locks: Most commercial properties use access control keypad readers, pin codes, and key fobs. This enables real-time security with an audit trail that doesn’t lie. If further identity verification is needed, then combine your locking system with a camera system.

Door Buzzer Systems: Many apartment complexes, gated communities, jewelry stores, and banks use gate locks with door buzzer systems. This is a great way to secure a property without giving out keys and it allows the owner to change codes at a moments notice.

Security Cameras: Digital security cameras are available in many shapes, sizes, and offer many functions such as point tilt zoom (PTZ), low light, infrared, and zoom. If you need indoor or outdoor cameras, we have the exact camera and installation experience you need.

Safe Cracking & Unlocking: This is a term we hear a lot and it pertains to gaining entry to your safe without damaging the safe itself. Without a professional safe cracker, you could overpay and do more damage to the safe than necessary. We’ve seen what untrained technicians can do to a safe. Most of the time, the customer ends up needing a new safe due to all the damage they cause.

Safe Drilling & Opening: When cracking the safe is not an option due to broken spindles, damaged safe locks, or lost combinations, the locksmith may choose to drill your safe. A trained pro will know exactly where to drill through the outer wall in order to hit the lock or bolt release. If you have a TL safe or safe with a re-locker – you’ll definitely need a pro. Once the safe is open, we can then repair the drill hole, replace the lock, and check for proper function.

Safe Sales & Service: Did you know that some locksmiths have walk-in locations and offer mobile road service? The family owned companies with walk-in locations often carry a variety of door hardware, key chains, keys, smart locks, and gun safes for sale. If you’re in the market for a high-quality safe with featured such as a 2-hour fire rating, Burglary rating, or EMP proof keypad lock, then call us first and shop local.

When a locksmith programs your car key it is always recommended to have all working keys on-site. Once the job is complete you can then test every key to ensure proper function. The programming procedure can sometimes clear out the memory from the on-board computer. If that happens, the locksmith can easily add your old keys back into the computer.

If your car was made after 2000, there is a high liklihood that it has a chip in the key. This chip communicates with the cars on-board computer. The chip disables the anti-theft module and allows the car to start.
