I’m locked out of my house in Hatfield Township, so can you get me back inside without wrecking the door or lock?
We come to the location where the lock is and assess the situation on site. If the lock and door can be opened without destructive techniques, we use non-destructive entry methods, lock bypasses, pick tools, or manipulating the cylinder. If the hardware is worn or damaged, we’ll explain the safer options, including cylinder removal and replacement.
My car key fob won’t unlock the doors and the spare is at home. Can you handle modern vehicle locks and fobs during an emergency?
We work on a wide range of vehicle lock systems, including mechanical lock cylinders and many electronic entry systems. On site we diagnose whether the issue is a dead fob battery, a faulty transmitter, or a locked cylinder, and we can perform mechanical entry, key cutting, or fob battery replacement or reprogramming when the vehicle’s system allows it.
A key snapped off inside my front deadbolt, so what can you do to get the broken piece out and secure the door afterward?
We extract broken key fragments using extraction tools designed for cylinders, then inspect the lock for internal damage. If the key can be removed cleanly, we often rekey the cylinder or replace the core depending on wear or damage. We always secure the door and discuss hardware options to prevent repeat breakage.
