The plan

How a Master Key System Works

  1. Plan

    We map your doors and people.

    Who needs to open what: owners, managers, staff, tenants, vendors. We turn that into a key plan.

  2. Rekey

    We rekey the cylinders on-site.

    Your existing locks are rekeyed into the system where possible. Worn or incompatible locks are quoted before we replace them.

  3. Keys

    We cut and label the keys.

    Master keys for managers, individual keys for each door, and a confidential key record so you can add keys later.

Gate lock repair
I had an electric strike lock on my gate that needed repair. 6 other locksmiths had already said they had no clue how to fix it or it was out of their scope. Alexey came out … and fixed it within 20 minutes.

Upfront pricing
Alexey was punctual and his price stated was the price at the end. Having dealt with previous locksmiths giving the run around and upping the price when the service was completed, this was very stress free and professional.
