Locksmith in Mayfair, PA

If it is recent, let the police look before anyone else; the door should stay as it is until they have finished. We replace the damaged cylinder or the entire lock as needed and repair or reinforce the strike so the door will latch and lock properly again. Have the door area clear and any broken parts or the existing key available so we can match the new cylinder to the hardware and confirm the bolt engages correctly.

We rekey the outside locks to a single key where the existing cylinders are serviceable and compatible; if a particular lock can’t be rekeyed we’ll tell you it needs replacing instead. Gather every current key for the doors you want included so we can pin the cylinders to that key or identify which cylinders must be swapped.

If anyone who can't help themselves is inside, a child or a pet included, call 911 and then call us. We open the locked door at the house and, in most cases, do so without damaging the lock so you can keep using it afterward. Wait at the locked door so we can work from the outside and have any existing keys nearby if you later find them. We'll look over photo ID plus a document showing you live at the house before we open the door.

We open the safe where it stands; we’ll work to get into the unit without moving it if possible. Tell us the safe’s make and model if you know it, and whether it uses a dial, a keypad, or a key so we come prepared. Have photo ID and the receipt or paperwork that came with the safe on hand, because we check them before we open the safe.
