"Restaurant kitchen needed commercial-grade locks that meet health code (easy to clean, no dirt traps). Kwikey knew exactly which locks were approved and installed them. Also set up a manager's master key. Perfect!"

"Curbside mailbox lock rusted out and key wouldn't work anymore. Kwikey matched a replacement lock to the USPS specification and installed it right at the mailbox. Even lubricated the hinge while he was there. Great attention to detail."

Expertly Resolved FAQ: Lock Installation
What areas do you serve? expand_more

Our mobile service units provide professional coverage across New Castle County, Delaware, and the Greater Philadelphia region, including Chester and Delaware counties. Whether you are in Wilmington, Newark, West Chester, or Media, we bring our specialized equipment directly to your location.

Is it worth repairing an old lock or should I replace it? expand_more

We'll assess your lock and give honest advice. Sometimes a simple repair is all you need. Other times, replacing with a modern lock is the smarter investment. We don't push replacements if repair makes sense.

Where should I keep spare keys? expand_more

Never under the doormat, flowerpot, or fake rock—burglars check these first. Give a spare to a trusted neighbor instead. Smart locks eliminate this worry entirely. We can also install a secure key lockbox that requires a code.

Should I have a deadbolt on my garage entry door? expand_more

Absolutely. The door from your garage to your home is the most common break-in point. Once inside the garage, burglars work hidden from view. We recommend a high-quality deadbolt and solid-core door for this entry point.

Does lock installation require drilling new holes? expand_more

It depends on your door. If replacing an existing lock, usually no new holes are needed. For new installations, we drill precise holes that won't weaken your door. We also check that your door jamb is properly reinforced.

Are smart locks as secure as traditional deadbolts? expand_more

Quality smart locks from brands like Schlage and Yale are just as secure mechanically as traditional locks. They add convenience features like remote access and activity logs. We recommend models with auto-lock and tamper alerts for maximum security.
