You’re not just getting back into your home or car. You’re getting peace of mind that comes from working with locksmiths who’ve been solving these exact problems for four generations.
When we get you back inside, we do it without damaging your property, without making you wait hours, and without charging you twice what the job should cost. Your locks work properly, your keys cut cleanly, and you’re not calling us back next month because we used cheap parts.
Most importantly, you’re working with people who understand Upper Darby. We know this community, we live here, and we’ve been helping your neighbors get back into their homes since your great-grandparents were kids.
The McCausland family has been locksmithing since the late 1800s. Today, Tom McCausland and his daughter Chrissy run the largest locksmith operation in the Delaware Valley from our Prospect Park storefront.
We’re not some fly-by-night operation that showed up yesterday. Upper Darby families have been trusting us with their security for over 140 years because we show up when we say we will, we fix things right the first time, and we don’t try to sell you stuff you don’t need.
You’ll find us at our shop on Lincoln Avenue, where we can cut your keys while you wait and show you security products in person. But most of our work happens in your driveway, at your office, or wherever you’re locked out and need help fast.
When you call us, we dispatch our closest mobile technician immediately. Most Upper Darby locations get service in 20-30 minutes, including Media, Chester, and Springfield areas.
Our technician arrives with a fully equipped van containing the tools, parts, and key blanks needed for your specific situation. Whether you’re locked out, need rekeying, or want new locks installed, we handle everything on-site without multiple trips or delays.
For lockouts, we get you back inside using specialized tools that won’t damage your property. For rekeying, we change the internal pins so your old keys stop working while cutting new ones on the spot. New installations get done with manufacturer parts and proper techniques that ensure everything works smoothly for years.

Upper Darby’s diverse housing stock means we see everything from historic row homes near 69th Street to newer construction in Bywood.

Most Upper Darby locations get service within 20-30 minutes of your call. We dispatch our closest mobile technician immediately because we understand every minute you’re locked out costs you time, money, and peace of mind.

Emergency response is our priority, especially for business lockouts where every minute affects your ability to serve customers and generate revenue.
Rekeying changes the internal pins inside your existing lock so old keys stop working while new keys are cut to match. The lock hardware stays the same, which costs less and maintains your home’s appearance.
Changing locks means removing your current hardware and installing completely new locks. This costs more but gives you upgraded security features, different styles, or electronic capabilities your old locks didn’t have.
For most Upper Darby homeowners, rekeying makes sense when moving into a new home, after losing keys, or when former tenants or roommates had access. We can rekey multiple locks to work with the same key, making your life simpler.

We’re authorized dealers for major brands like Kwikset, Medeco, and Schlage, so we use manufacturer parts and follow proper installation procedures. This means your locks work reliably and warranties stay valid.

Residential rekeying typically costs $50-100 per lock when done professionally, which is significantly less expensive than replacing locks entirely. The exact cost depends on your lock type, how many locks need service, and whether you want them all keyed to match.
Having your existing key available makes the process faster and less expensive. If keys are lost, we can still rekey your locks, but it requires additional time to access the internal mechanisms.
We provide upfront pricing before starting work, so you know exactly what you’ll pay. Most Upper Darby homeowners find rekeying much more affordable than they expected, especially compared to full lock replacement.
Absolutely. Upper Darby has many historic homes with unique door configurations, and we’ve been installing locks on these properties for decades. We understand the challenges of working with older doors, unusual measurements, and vintage hardware.
Sometimes older doors need minor modifications to accept modern locks, but we handle this carefully to preserve your home’s character while improving security. We can also match new hardware to your existing door knobs and cabinet hardware.
For homes with original mortise locks or other vintage hardware, we can often repair and rekey existing mechanisms rather than replacing them entirely, maintaining your home’s historic authenticity while ensuring reliable security.
