You get keys cut to exact factory specifications using professional equipment and OEM-quality materials. No more fumbling with poorly cut copies that stick or break in your lock.
Your duplicated keys work smoothly from the first use, whether you need spare house keys, mailbox keys, or those hard-to-find specialty keys that big box stores can’t handle. We cut keys for locks from every major manufacturer including Kwikset, Schlage, and Medeco.
When you need reliable key duplication, you want it done right the first time. Our four generations of locksmithing expertise mean we understand the precision required for keys that actually work when you need them most.
We’ve been helping Rutledge families with their key and lock needs since the late 1800s. We’re the largest locksmith operation in the Delaware Valley, but we’re still family-owned and operated by fourth-generation locksmith Tom McCausland and his daughter Chrissy.
Our Prospect Park storefront stocks thousands of key blanks and has the specialized equipment to handle keys that other places can’t duplicate. We’ve seen every type of lock problem over our 140+ years in business, so we know how to get your key duplication done right.
Rutledge residents trust us because we understand that your home security matters. We use the same precision and care whether you need a simple house key copy or a complex high-security key that requires special handling.
First, we examine your original key to determine the best cutting method and blank type. Our professional key cutting machines are calibrated to factory specifications, ensuring your duplicate matches the original exactly.
We cut your key using precision equipment that accounts for wear on your original key, so your copy actually works better than making a “copy of a copy” elsewhere. Each key gets tested to ensure smooth operation before we hand it to you.
The whole process typically takes just a few minutes for standard house keys. For specialty keys or high-security locks, we might need a bit more time, but we’ll let you know upfront. You can wait in our comfortable storefront or we can call you when your keys are ready.
