BROWSE OUR FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Losing your housekeys or forgetting your safe combination can be frustrating. Locksmiths are a great, convenient option for addressing these issues. Many people do not utilize locksmiths because they do not realize all the services we can provide. From our experience, here are some of the frequently asked questions that we get. 

1. What is a master key?

A master key is a key that works with every lock in your home or business. It allows you to keep the security of having locks where they are needed while making it easier for you to keep track of keys.

2. Why should I use a locksmith rather than get a friend to help?

Sure, you can get a friend or mechanic to help you get into your home or vehicle. However, they may damage your locks and cost you more money in the long run. Using a locksmith ensures that you get back into your home or car without damaging your locks.

3. Can all locks be picked?

No, not all locks can be picked. Some locks are high security which prevents them from being picked.

4. What does it mean to rekey a lock?

Rekeying a lock means keeping your current lock but changing the pins inside the lock. This stops any copies of old keys from working.
