Understanding the safe
We ask what the safe is for, how it is opened and what has changed: a lost combination, a dead keypad, a bolt that will not retract. Each points to a different approach.

Locks for the house you actually live in.
Safes ask for patience, and patience is something we have made part of the company's character. Opening a safe whose combination has been lost is careful, methodical work, done in a way that leaves the safe usable afterwards. Installing one means thinking about the floor, the wall, the humidity and how you will actually use it day to day. We bring that same steadiness to every other job, whether it is a stubborn mortise lock in an old house or a car door with a snapped key inside. Rushing is how hardware gets damaged. Working steadily, explaining as we go, is how it gets sorted properly.

Rule of the job2 of 3
Where a combination can be reset or a keypad replaced, we do that. Where the safe must be opened without its code, we use the method that leaves it usable afterwards.
Rule of the job3 of 3
Once it works we help you choose a new combination or code, show you how to change it later and suggest a sensible place to keep a record.

The door and the lock are one system, and we look at both. A deadbolt that has to be shoved home is usually a hinge or a swollen frame, not a bad lock.

Step 3 of 5
For lockouts and key cutting we check identification or another proof. It is a courtesy to you and to whoever else holds a key.

Step 4 of 5
Sometimes the sensible move is a small fix now and a planned upgrade later. We tell you which parts are urgent and which can wait.

Step 5 of 5
We leave the area tidy and give you a short written account of what was done and how many keys were cut.
