Residential Key Cutting Sharon Hill

Every Key Type, Every Time

We duplicate standard house keys, deadbolt keys, apartment keys, mailbox keys, and those “hard to find” keys that give other places trouble. Older homes in Sharon Hill often have unique key types—we’ve probably seen yours before.

Our key cutting service covers the entire Delaware County area, but we know Sharon Hill specifically. We understand the mix of older row homes and newer developments, the variety of lock types you’ll find, and the security concerns that matter to residents here.

We keep a comprehensive inventory of key blanks because Sharon Hill homes span decades of different lock manufacturers. When you need a duplicate key, we have the right blank in stock and the experience to cut it correctly the first time.

Rows of various blank metal keys hang on hooks against a wall, organized in bunches, ready to be cut and used for locks.

How long does key duplication take in Sharon Hill?

Most residential key duplication takes just a few minutes. We cut your key while you wait—no need to leave it overnight or come back later.

For standard house keys, deadbolt keys, and apartment keys, you’re looking at 2-3 minutes from start to finish. More unusual or older key types might take 5-10 minutes as we ensure we’re using the right blank and cutting to exact specifications.

We don’t rush the process, but we don’t waste your time either. You’ll have your duplicate keys and be on your way faster than you’d spend waiting in line at most big box stores.

Absolutely. Sharon Hill has homes dating back decades, and we’ve been serving this area long enough to have seen most lock types multiple times.

Older homes often use key types that aren’t common anymore—different manufacturers, discontinued models, unusual cuts. We keep an extensive inventory of blanks specifically because we know the variety of locks in older Delaware County neighborhoods.

If you’ve been told elsewhere that your key “can’t be duplicated” or is “too old,” bring it to us. We love the challenge keys that other places won’t touch, and we have the experience and equipment to handle keys that newer locksmiths haven’t encountered.

We’re notably cheaper than dealer pricing—usually 50-70% less for the same quality work. Dealers mark up key duplication significantly because they know you’re stuck when you need a replacement.

A standard house key duplication that might cost $15-25 at a dealer typically runs $3-8 here. More complex keys still cost significantly less than dealer prices while using the same quality blanks and precision cutting.

We’re not the cheapest option in town, but we’re the best value. You get professional results, quality materials, and decades of experience at a fair price that doesn’t take advantage of your situation.

No appointment needed for standard key duplication. Just walk in with your original key and we’ll cut your duplicates while you wait.

Our storefront is open Monday through Friday, 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM. We’re closed weekends, but during business hours you can come in anytime for residential key cutting services.

For more complex jobs like master key systems or high-security keys, a quick call ahead helps us make sure we have the right materials ready. But for regular house keys, apartment keys, and standard residential duplicates, just stop by when it’s convenient for you.

We test every key before you leave to make sure it works smoothly in your lock. If there’s any issue, we fix it on the spot at no extra charge.

Sometimes a key needs minor adjustments—a slight filing here or there to ensure it turns perfectly. We handle those adjustments immediately because a key that doesn’t work isn’t a finished job.

If you get home and discover any problem with a key we cut, bring it back. We stand behind our work and will make it right. With over 100 years in business, our reputation depends on keys that work perfectly every time.

Yes, we can duplicate most apartment keys, though some newer complexes use restricted key systems that require authorization from property management.

For standard apartment keys, mailbox keys, and common area keys, we can cut duplicates just like house keys. The process is the same—bring in your original and we’ll cut copies while you wait.

Some apartment complexes use high-security or restricted key systems where duplicates can only be made with written authorization. If your key has “Do Not Duplicate” stamped on it or uses a special keyway, we’ll need to verify authorization first. We’ll let you know right away if there are any restrictions on your particular key type.
