Broken Key Extraction
A key broken off inside the lock is one of the most common lock emergencies. We extract broken keys using professional tools without damaging the lock cylinder — and can cut a replacement key on the same visit.
Jammed & Stiff Locks
Locks that are stiff, sticky, or difficult to turn are usually suffering from worn internal components, improper door alignment, or lack of lubrication. We diagnose the cause and repair or rebuild the cylinder — often fixing the problem in under 30 minutes.
