Services
Rekeying
Our rekeying service modifies existing locks to work with new keys without replacing hardware. This cost-effective security upgrade takes 15-30 minutes per lock and is ideal for lost keys, tenant changes, or enhanced security. Our licensed technicians use specialized tools to adjust internal lock mechanisms while maintaining original security features.
Safe Services
We provide comprehensive safe services including installation, repair, combination changes, and non-destructive opening. Our Tidel Safe Certified technicians handle fireproof safes, burglary safes, and digital security vaults for residential and commercial clients. Services include proper anchoring, lock upgrades, and maintenance to ensure long-term reliability and security compliance.
Master Key Systems
Custom master key systems allow tiered access control with master, sub-master, and individual keys. Ideal for multi-tenant properties and businesses, our systems reduce key quantities while maintaining security. We design, install, and maintain restricted key systems that prevent unauthorized duplication and integrate with existing security infrastructure.
Burglar Alarms
Our burglar alarm solutions feature 24/7 monitoring, motion detectors, and smart home integration. While we don't install systems directly, we partner with certified providers to deliver customized security plans featuring remote access, real-time alerts, and professional monitoring services for residential and commercial properties.
Car Key Replacement
We offer automotive key duplication, fob programming, and smart key services for most vehicle makes. Our mobile technicians provide on-site solutions with firm pricing and same-day service. Services include transponder key programming, keyless entry systems, and battery replacements using specialized equipment for modern vehicle security systems.
