Keying alike means one key opens several locks, so you carry fewer keys. For larger properties, a master key system lets one key open every door while other keys open only their own.

Fewer keys
Keying alike puts several locks on one key, so there is less to carry and less to lose.

Replacing several locks? Tell us first. It is simpler to key locks alike when they are chosen together.
Common questions
I am locked out. What should I do?
Call us. We open residential locks and can fit new keys where needed. We may ask for identification and proof that you live at the property before opening the door.
Should I repair my lock or replace it?
If a lock is sticking or worn, servicing or repairing it is often enough. If it is damaged, very old or no longer secure, replacing it is usually the better choice. We will tell you which makes sense before any work starts.
What does keying alike mean?
Keying alike means several locks open with the same key, so you carry fewer keys. A master key system goes a step further: one key opens every lock, while other keys open only their own doors.
Can a deadbolt be added to my existing door?
In most cases, yes. A deadbolt fits alongside your existing lock to give the door a second, stronger lock. We check the door and frame first.
