Our key duplication services cover everything from standard house keys to specialty residential keys that other locksmiths often struggle with. We cut keys for front doors, back doors, deadbolts, and interior locks using the same precision equipment we use for commercial security installations.
Boothwyn residents often bring us keys that have been worn down over time or keys that previous services couldn’t duplicate properly. We work with Kwikset, Schlage, Medeco, and other major lock manufacturers, so we understand the specific requirements for each brand’s key cutting specifications.
We also handle duplicate keys for garage doors, mailboxes, and other residential security applications. If you’re a property manager or landlord serving the Boothwyn area, we can efficiently duplicate multiple keys for tenant turnover or maintenance staff access.
Most residential key duplication jobs are completed within minutes while you wait. Standard house keys for brands like Kwikset and Schlage typically take 2-3 minutes per key to cut properly.
Specialty keys or high-security residential locks might take a few minutes longer because we take extra care to ensure the cuts are precise. We’d rather spend an extra minute getting it perfect than have you come back because the key doesn’t work smoothly.
If you have multiple keys to duplicate or need several copies of the same key, we can usually handle everything in one quick visit to our Prospect Park location.
Yes, we regularly duplicate keys that other services couldn’t handle. After 140+ years in the locksmith business, we’ve developed the expertise and equipment to work with challenging key types that newer locksmiths often struggle with.
This includes worn keys, unusual key profiles, older lock systems, and high-security residential keys. We stock a comprehensive selection of key blanks and use professional-grade cutting equipment that can handle precision work on difficult duplications.

If for any reason a duplicate key we cut doesn’t work properly in your lock, bring it back and we’ll make it right. We’ve been serving Delaware County families for generations, so our reputation depends on getting every job done correctly.
We also check the condition of your original key before duplicating it. If the original is worn or damaged in a way that could affect the duplicate’s performance, we’ll let you know upfront and discuss the best options for your situation.
We duplicate virtually all types of residential keys, from standard house keys to specialty security keys. This includes keys for deadbolts, doorknob locks, sliding door locks, garage doors, mailboxes, and most residential security applications.
We work with all major lock manufacturers including Kwikset, Schlage, Medeco, Yale, and others. We also handle older or discontinued key types that many newer locksmith services can’t duplicate because they don’t stock the proper key blanks.
Our key duplication services extend to some vehicle keys, safe keys, and other specialty applications. If you’re not sure whether we can duplicate a particular key, just bring it in and we’ll take a look. We stock one of the most comprehensive selections of key blanks in the Delaware Valley area.
Our residential key duplication pricing is straightforward and competitive for the Delaware County area. Standard house key duplication typically costs significantly less than what you’d pay at big box stores, and the quality is much better.
Specialty keys or high-security residential keys may cost slightly more due to the precision work and specialized key blanks required, but we’ll always give you the price upfront before starting any work.
We believe in fair pricing for quality work. You’re paying for over 140 years of expertise, professional equipment, and keys that are guaranteed to work properly. Most customers find our pricing very reasonable compared to the convenience and reliability we provide.
Yes, we can efficiently duplicate multiple copies of the same residential key during a single visit. Whether you need extras for family members, roommates, or property management purposes, we can handle multiple duplications quickly.
For larger quantities – like property managers needing keys for multiple units – we recommend calling ahead so we can have the appropriate key blanks ready. This ensures we can complete your order efficiently without delays.
Multiple key duplication is actually more efficient for us because we can set up our equipment once and cut several identical keys in sequence. This often means better pricing per key and faster overall service for your bulk duplication needs.
