WOW! I went to three other places for a special key to be duplicated and none of the other places could help me. Action Lock Doc helped in every way- they were fast (they made the key within 10 minutes of me being there), affordable, and professional. I highly recommend them and will be returning for any other key/lock needs.

These guys are great. Very friendly and helpful, both on the phone and in person. I will definitely use them again and recommend them. I locked my key fob in my car (which isn't supposed to happen). I had the key code and called them to see if they could make me a key. They put me on hold and had to hunt for the right one. They found it, made me a key and saved me $$$. Plus now I have an extra key!

Every key that they have made for me has worked perfectly. I have even had them rekey a file cabinet that I purchased on clearance elsewhere that was missing a key. I've been doing business there for at least 20 years. Always pleased.

Best experience I've ever had with a locksmith - and I've had quite a few experiences with them, unfortunately! Jeff was the greatest. He was so kind and very professional. He was also able to get to me in less than 30 minutes, he called me when he was on his way, and it took him no more than 2 minutes to unlock my car. Super quick and easy! Thank you Jeff!!!

Bought a Schlage Smart Lock from Amazon. Needed to get it re-keyed so the key would match all the rest of my house locks. The guys at Action Lock Doc were able to do it in few minutes while I waited...and for a very fair price. I've definitely saving them in my favorites in case I ever again need lock work done.

Fixed my problem within 20 minutes. Their tech, Jeff, was a very nice young man. Appeared to be very knowledgeable, was pleasant, was courteous and articulate. Most of the time you never know who might show up or how they might perform. This was a very pleasant experience and I would definitely recommend this company. Jeff is an excellent representative of this company.

Ian was outstanding. I needed a couple of rare keys cut and he not only had the blanks, but he was very knowledgeable and courteous. I will definitely go there again.

New Lock Installation

We provide new lock installation services to enhance your home's security. Our experienced technicians install a wide range of lock types, from traditional keyed locks to smart lock systems, tailored to your specific needs.

We assess your property, discuss your preferences, and recommend the best lock options for optimal protection. Our experts will guide you in selecting high-quality locks from trusted manufacturers and ensure proper installation for smooth functionality.

Lock Replacement

Replacing your home's locks is an important step in ensuring your property remains secure. Our lock replacement services can help you upgrade your existing locks to new, high-quality ones that provide enhanced security and reliability.

We will help you select the best locks based on your needs, budget, door type, and required security level. Technicians will then remove your old locks and install the new ones, ensuring proper functionality and protection.

Lock Repair

When your door locks are not functioning properly, it can be frustrating and compromise your home's security. Professional lock repair services can help address issues like sticking, jamming, misalignment, or broken components, restoring your locks to optimal working condition.

Regular maintenance can prevent these problems and extend the life of your locks. Our expert will diagnose the issue and determine the best action, such as cleaning, lubricating, or replacing damaged parts. 

Smart Lock Installation and Troubleshooting

Smart locks offer convenient features like keyless entry, remote access, and integration with home automation systems. However, installing and maintaining smart locks can be complex, so professional installation and troubleshooting services are beneficial. Our installation ensures proper setup, compatibility with your door and home automation system, and functionality. 

Troubleshooting and repair services help resolve these issues quickly, whether replacing batteries, updating software, or repairing hardware components. Regular maintenance by professional locksmiths, including routine checks and updates, is important to ensure your smart lock continues to function smoothly.

Rekeying Services

Rekeying is a cost-effective alternative to replacing your locks entirely when you need to change who has access to your home. This process involves altering the internal mechanism of your lock so that it works with a new key while making the old key unusable.

During the rekeying process, a skilled locksmith will change the configuration of the lock's tumblers or pins to match a new key. This ensures that only the new key will work with the lock, preventing anyone with an old key from gaining access. Our rekeying services provide a quick and affordable way to update your home's security when needed.

Signs When Door Lock Needs Repair or Replacement

Here are some common signs that a door lock may need repair or replacement:

  • Difficulty Locking/Unlocking: If the lock becomes increasingly difficult to turn or the key gets stuck, it could indicate a problem with the lock's internal components.
  • Loose or Wobbly Lock: If the lock feels loose or wiggles when you try to turn the key, it may be a sign that the lock is wearing out and needs to be repaired or replaced.
  • Visible Damage: Look for any visible signs of damage, such as cracks, dents, or rust on the lock's exterior. These can compromise the lock's functionality and security.
  • Key Problems: If your key no longer fits properly in the lock or breaks off inside, it could mean the lock's internal mechanism is worn out and needs to be replaced.
  • Security Concerns: If you feel your door lock is not providing adequate security, it's a good idea to have it evaluated by a professional locksmith. Older or lower-quality locks may need to be upgraded to ensure your home's safety.
  • Frequent Locking Issues: If you constantly have trouble with the lock, such as needing to jiggle the key or apply extra force to get it to work, it's a sign that the lock is failing and should be repaired or replaced.

If you notice any of these signs, it's best to consult a professional locksmith to assess the problem and recommend the best course of action, whether that's repair or replacement.
