Four Generations of Getting People Back In

The McCausland family has been solving lock problems since the late 1800s. Today, fourth-generation locksmith Tom McCausland and his daughter Chrissy run the largest locksmith operation in the Delaware Valley from our Prospect Park location.

We’ve handled everything from simple house key copies to complex commercial security installations. The difference is we’re not trying to sell you the most expensive option – we’re focused on what actually solves your problem.

Middletown families and businesses choose us because we show up when we say we will, charge what we quote, and our work lasts. We’re the locksmith you call when you need it done right, not done over.

Next, we dispatch our closest technician to your location. Most Middletown calls get 20-30 minute response times because we keep our mobile units stocked and strategically positioned throughout the area.

Then we assess the situation on-site. We’ll show you exactly what needs to be done and explain your options before starting any work. No surprises, no upselling – just clear communication about what fixes your problem.

Finally, we complete the job using the right tools and quality parts. We test everything before we leave, make sure you’re satisfied with the work, and provide you with all new keys or access codes you need.

We provide upfront pricing before starting any work, so you know exactly what you’re paying. The cost includes all labor, new keys, and testing to make sure everything works properly when we’re finished.

Rekeying is usually more cost-effective than replacing locks entirely, especially when your existing hardware is in good condition. We’ll assess your locks and explain whether rekeying or replacement makes more sense for your situation and budget.
