A larger home means more keys. Take back control

A house with a front door, side and back doors, a garage, a pool gate and a basement can easily have a dozen keys in circulation: family, housekeepers, contractors, a landscaper, the alarm company. Over the years you lose track of who has what.

Alex checks each lock and plans the rekey. Compatible locks can often be completed in one visit, with any replacement hardware agreed in advance:

Agreed locks rekeyed so their old keys stop working
Compatible locks keyed to one key, where the cylinders allow it
Keypad locks on the doors staff and contractors use, so you delete a code instead of chasing a key
High-security cylinders with restricted keys, where your hardware is compatible. Call to confirm the brand and model

Plan a whole-house rekey: (516) 837-5542

Common calls in Lawrence

What homeowners, families and shop owners call Alex for most.

Staff, contractors and codes

Common: a housekeeper, aide or contractor needs a way in, and you don't want to hand out another key

Fix: a keypad lock with a separate code for each person on models that support it. Delete the code when the job ends

Keypad and smart locks

High-security upgrades

Common: homeowners who want keys that can't be copied at a hardware store or kiosk

Fix: high-security cylinders with restricted keys, where your hardware is compatible. Call to confirm

High-security locks

Locked out of the house

Common: keys left inside, or a lock that won't turn

Fix: non-destructive entry first. If a lock has to be drilled or replaced, you hear why and the price before he does it

House lockouts

Shops on Central Avenue

Common: a storefront door that won't lock at closing, or a staff member who left with a key

Fix: storefront lock repair, rekeys and keypad locks, before you open or after you close

Renovating or hiring help? Three steps for key control

Simple habits that keep you in charge of who gets in.

Give codes, not keysFor contractors and staff, a keypad code you can delete is easier to manage than a key you have to get back.
Write down who has whatKeep a short list of every key and code you hand out, and when. It makes the next step easy.
Rekey when the work endsWhen a renovation finishes or staff changes, rekey the doors that had keys out. Old keys stop working the same day.
