Locksmith services in Westchester
- High-security cylinders: restricted keys that can't be copied at a hardware store, for homes and offices.
- Master keys: landlords and businesses can have one key that opens every door while tenants or staff carry keys for their own.
- File cabinet and desk locks: opened, repaired or replaced, with new keys cut on site.
- Car keys: we cut regular and laser keys and program many transponder keys and remote fobs on site.
- Lock repair: loose handles, sticking cylinders and latches that don't catch can often be repaired rather than replaced.

Homes and buildings in the Westside
Houses here often get smart locks or high-security deadbolts as upgrades. We install them and key them alike with other doors.
What happens when you call
Arrival times depend on traffic and how many calls are ahead of yours. We'll call you if our estimate changes.
We test every lock and key with you before we leave and explain any options for improving security.
You'll get an invoice listing the work and parts, which is useful for insurance claims and records.
Security tips
- Use screws at least three inches long in your deadbolt strike plate so they bite into the door frame, not just the trim.
- Ask for an invoice after any lock work; it helps with insurance claims.
- Don't hide a spare under the mat or in a planter; leave it with a trusted neighbor instead.
- If you lose a key with your address on it, rekey that day.
Questions from customers in Westchester
Do you service roll-up gate padlocks?
Yes. We replace padlocks and can key them to match your other business locks.
Can you rekey instead of replacing?
Usually, if the lock is in good condition. Rekeying makes old keys useless and costs less than new hardware.
Do you work with landlords?
Yes. We rekey between tenants, set up master key systems and change locks after a lawful eviction.
Do you install panic bars?
Yes. We install and repair exit devices for businesses with code requirements in mind.
Can you change mailbox locks?
Yes, for private mailboxes. USPS-owned cluster boxes are handled by the post office.
