That Broken Key in the Lock Is Not the End of the Day

A key snapped off inside this business storefront door lock. The business could not lock up. We extracted the broken key, got the lock working again, and cut a new key on the spot.

This is one of those calls that feels like a crisis but is a straightforward fix when you have the right tools. Do not try to pull it out with tweezers or a paperclip. You will push it deeper and make it harder to extract. Call a locksmith.

We handle broken key extractions on commercial storefront doors, office doors, and residential doors all over Gilbert. Most of the time we can be there same day.

Mailbox Lock Replacement Is One of Our Most Common Calls

Lost your mailbox key? It happens all the time. We replaced this mailbox lock and cut fresh new keys on the spot.

Most people do not realize a locksmith can handle this. You do not have to go through your HOA, wait on your property manager, or pay the post office. We come to you, replace the mailbox lock, and hand you working keys before we leave.

We do this all over Gilbert every week. Apartments, condos, standalone mailboxes, cluster units. If it has a lock, we can replace it.

Ex-Employee Have a Key? Landlord Have a Key? Previous Tenant? We Fix That.

When you move into a new commercial space, or when employees come and go, you have no idea how many copies of your key are out there. Rekeying your storefront is the fastest and most affordable way to take back control.

We rekeyed this commercial storefront door so the old keys no longer work. New keys, same locks, fresh start. No need to replace the hardware.

Don't want to rekey every time an employee leaves? Ask us about access control and high-security restricted keyways.

If you run a business in the Gilbert area and you are not sure who has access to your building, give us a call. We can usually get it done same day.

A snapped key in a lock is one of the most common calls we get.

Here's how it works: when a key breaks off inside a lock cylinder, most people assume the whole lock needs to be replaced. It doesn't. We use specialized extraction tools to remove the broken piece without damaging the cylinder. Once it's out, we decode the lock and cut a brand new key right here in our Gilbert shop.

No new lock needed. No lockout drama. In and out fast.

Your car won't start and the dealer wants $800. Call us first.

When an ignition cylinder wears out, we pull the cylinder, replace the worn wafers inside, and rebuild it back to factory function. Same ignition. Same key that's already programmed to your car. Works like new. A fraction of the cost.

We rebuild ignitions for Honda, Toyota, Chevy, Ford and more. Bring it to any of our Phoenix metro locations.

Your ignition not turning or sticking when turned? Before you pay a dealer to replace the whole ignition, call us.

Most ignition failures come down to worn wafers inside the lock cylinder. We rebuild them. Same ignition, restored function, fraction of the cost.

We service ignitions on cars, trucks, and SUVs for DIYers and mechanics. Just bring the ignition into any of our locations.

Bought a new ignition? Have us key it up to your existing car key before installing, so you won't need to replace or program any keys.
