Can you fit a keypad or smart lock on my existing front door in Skippack Township? I already bought the lock and have all the parts.
We fit the keypad or smart lock onto the door you already have, align the deadbolt so it lines up with the strike, and walk you through the electronic setup and user codes. We recommend keeping a mechanical key override; it gives a backup if batteries or electronics fail. Have the lock, trim pieces, mounting screws and the door prepared so we can install and program together.
I’m locked out and nobody at the house has a spare key, so can you get me back inside?
If anyone who can't help themselves is inside, a child or a pet included, dial 911 first. We open the locked door at the house and, in most cases, do so without damaging the existing lock. Stay at the door so we can work from there and tell us what type of lock and any recent issues it’s had. Expect us to ask for your ID and a utility bill or other mail tying you to the address before we open the door.
My car key fob stopped working, so what can you do in Skippack Township?
First we try a fresh battery in the fob; that fixes most dead remotes. If replacing the battery doesn’t help, we test the fob’s signals and, if needed, program a replacement key or remote directly to the vehicle. Have the vehicle’s make, model and year ready and the nonworking fob. Before we program a new fob or key, we will need to see photo ID together with the car's title or registration card.
My older exterior door has an original lock that’s starting to stick and the key turns hard, can that be fixed?
Often those are mortise-type locks set into the door; we can service the mechanism, tighten loose components, or fit a replacement that matches the door and avoids drilling new holes where possible. Tell us the symptoms you’re seeing (sticking, wobble, stiff key) and have someone available to operate the door while we work so we can test function and alignment.
