Our locksmith services cover everything Chester Heights homeowners need. Residential rekeying services for when you move in or lose keys. New lock installation for security upgrades. Home lock-out assistance when you’re stuck outside.
We handle deadbolt services, electronic locks, mailbox locks, and mortise locks. Door knobs & levers get the same attention to detail as high-security installations.
Chester Heights homes range from older properties needing lock repair to newer constructions requiring modern security systems. We stock the parts and have the expertise for both. Whether your home is near the Chester Heights Elementary School area or closer to the Granite Run Mall vicinity, we understand local security needs and respond accordingly.
Rekeying is usually the smarter choice when moving to a new home in Chester Heights. It costs significantly less than full replacement while giving you complete control over who has access.
Rekeying changes the internal pins so old keys won’t work, but keeps your existing lock hardware. This works great if your locks are in good condition. We can rekey multiple locks to work with one key, making your life simpler.
However, if your locks are old, damaged, or you want to upgrade security, replacement makes more sense. We’ll assess your situation and recommend the most cost-effective approach.
We understand that being locked out of your home is stressful, especially late at night or during bad weather. Our goal is to reach Chester Heights customers as quickly as possible, typically within 30 minutes during normal hours.
Emergency situations get priority response. We carry the tools needed to get you back inside without damaging your door or lock. Our technicians are trained in non-destructive entry methods that work on most residential locks.
We serve the entire Chester Heights area, from homes near Ridley Creek State Park to properties closer to the Media border. Distance within our service area doesn’t significantly impact response time.
We install, repair, and upgrade all types of deadbolts commonly found in Chester Heights homes. Single-cylinder deadbolts are most popular for front doors, while double-cylinder versions work well for doors with glass panels.
Smart deadbolts are increasingly popular with Chester Heights homeowners who want keyless entry and remote control capabilities. We install and program these systems, ensuring they integrate properly with your existing door hardware.
For homes with security concerns, we recommend high-security deadbolts with reinforced strike plates and longer screws that anchor into the door frame. These provide significantly better protection against forced entry attempts.
Yes, most electronic locks can be installed on older homes, though sometimes we need to modify the door or frame slightly. Chester Heights has many homes built in different eras, and we’ve successfully upgraded security on properties from various decades.
The key is ensuring proper fit and power supply. Battery-powered electronic locks are easiest to install since they don’t require electrical work. For hardwired systems, we coordinate with electricians when needed.
We’ll evaluate your specific door and frame during our assessment. Sometimes older doors need reinforcement or adjustment to properly support modern electronic locks, but these modifications are usually straightforward.
Absolutely. Mailbox locks are a common service request in Chester Heights, especially for cluster mailbox units and individual residential mailboxes. We can rekey existing mailbox locks or install new ones.
We also handle mortise locks, which are common in older Chester Heights homes and commercial properties. These require specialized knowledge since they’re more complex than standard cylindrical locks.
Window locks, patio door locks, and cabinet locks are also within our expertise. Many homeowners don’t realize these entry points need attention, but they’re important parts of overall home security.
Don’t try to dig it out yourself – you might push the broken piece deeper or damage the lock mechanism. Stop trying to turn the key and call us for broken key extraction service.
We have specialized tools designed to remove broken keys without damaging the lock. In most cases, we can extract the broken piece and get your lock working normally again. If the lock is damaged during the break, we’ll let you know what repair options are available.
This is a common problem, especially with older keys or locks that haven’t been maintained. Once we extract the broken key, we can cut you a new one and check the lock’s condition to prevent future problems.
