Why Kennett Square Trusts Us for High-Security Locks

Someone's Been Trying Your Doors

Scratches around your lock, door that looks tampered with, or neighbors reporting suspicious activity.. Standard locks won't deter a determined intruder—they're easily picked or bumped in seconds.

Your Keys Have Been Copied Who-Knows-How-Many-Times

Anyone with your key can make unlimited copies at any hardware store.. High-security locks use restricted keyways—copies require your authorization card.. You finally know exactly who has keys.

You Store Things Worth More Than Your Deductible

Valuable inventory, cash, sensitive documents, firearms, expensive equipment—if you require enhanced protection, high-security locks are the standard.

Expertly Resolved FAQ: High-Security Locks

Is a master key system less secure?

No, when properly designed.. We use high-quality pins and cylinders that are just as pick-resistant as individual locks.. Plus, we can combine master key systems with high-security hardware for maximum protection.

Do you bring hardware with you or do I need to purchase locks?

Our mobile units are stocked with a comprehensive inventory of Grade 1 and Grade 2 locks, deadbolts, and high-security hardware.. While we carry components from industry-leading brands for same-day resolution, we can also source specialized hardware to meet your unique architectural or security requirements.

Do you offer commercial locksmith services?

Absolutely.. We provide comprehensive commercial locksmith services including master key systems, access control installation, high-security locks, safe services, and emergency lockout assistance for businesses.

What's the difference between a panic bar and a crash bar?

The terms are often used interchangeably, but technically: panic hardware is rated for high-traffic emergency egress (schools, theaters) and must open with 15 lbs of force.. Fire exit hardware is rated for doors in fire-rated assemblies.. We install both types based on your specific application and local codes.

An employee left with keys. What should I do?

Rekey immediately. We can rekey your entire business professionally and affordably—often in a single visit. With access control systems, you can delete their credential in seconds. Either way, don't wait. Call us today for peace of mind. Kennett Square companies choose us for comprehensive commercial lock services.

What if I'm not satisfied with the work?

We provide a 90-day service commitment on all workmanship and hardware installations. If you encounter any operational issues during this period, we will return to your location for a diagnostic assessment and resolution as part of our service pledge. Your security and peace of mind are our primary operational priorities. Our dedication to Kennett Square customers drives everything we do.

Why Standard Locks Fail

YouTube has thousands of videos showing how to pick standard deadbolts in seconds. Bump keys open most residential locks without leaving a trace. A cheap cordless drill with a cheap bit goes through standard cylinders almost instantly. High-security locks are specifically engineered to defeat these common attack methods. If you're protecting something valuable, standard locks are theater—not security.

Key Control Is the Overlooked Essential

Maybe your locks are fine, but who has copies of your keys? Previous employees, old roommates, contractors, the dog walker from three years ago? With standard locks, anyone with a key can make unlimited copies at any hardware store. High-security restricted keyways require your authorization card for every duplicate. You finally know exactly who has access.
