Why Newark Trusts Us for Master Key Systems

key

Your Keyring Weighs More Than Your Phone

Carrying dozens of nearly-identical keys, fumbling to find the right one at every door. A master key means ONE key in your pocket opens every door on your property.

Maintenance Needs Access to Everything, But...

...tenants should only access their units, managers need their floors, and the janitorial crew needs the common areas. That's hierarchical access—everyone gets exactly what they need.

Tenant Turnover Is a Constant Headache

Every move-out means rekeying. With a proper master key system, you rekey just that unit without affecting anything else. Your master still works. Their old key doesn't.

You Don't Know Who Has Keys Anymore

Past employees, old contractors, tenants from three years ago—keys are everywhere. Master systems with proper key control let you know exactly who has what.

Your Current System Is Maxed Out

You're adding units or doors but your locksmith says the existing system can't expand. Poorly designed systems hit limits. We design systems with growth in mind.

Our Professional Master Key Systems Workflow

1

Map Your Access Needs

We sit down with you to understand your property: who needs access to what, how many levels of hierarchy, future expansion plans.

2

Design Your System

We create a key hierarchy that makes sense—not overengineered, not undersized. Clear documentation of what key opens what.

3

Assess Existing Locks

What can be rekeyed into the new system? What needs replacement? We give you options, not just the expensive answer.

4

Implementation

We rekey or install locks, cut your key hierarchy, and configure restricted keyways. Minimal disruption to operations.

5

Documentation and Training

You receive complete records: what keys exist, who has them, what they open. We train your team on adding/revoking access.

"Warehouse manager needed all exterior padlocks and door hardware replaced after a key went missing. Kwikey sourced high-security padlocks and lever handles, swapped everything in one visit, and delivered labeled key sets for each access point. Very organized process."

Expertly Resolved FAQ: Master Key Systems

Are your locksmiths background checked? expand_more

Yes, every technician undergoes a thorough background check before joining our team. We also carry full insurance. You're trusting us with access to your home or business—we take that responsibility seriously.

Are your locksmiths background-verified? expand_more

Yes, every technician on our team undergoes rigorous multi-stage background verification and carries comprehensive professional insurance. We prioritize your security by ensuring our staff are verified experts in residential, commercial, and automotive lock systems.

What are the advantages of a commercial master key system? expand_more

A master key system allows business owners to access every door with a single key while restricting specific employees to their designated areas. This enhances internal security and simplifies access management for complexes and office buildings.

Should my safe be bolted to the floor? expand_more

Absolutely, for any safe under 750 lbs. Thieves often steal smaller safes to crack later at their leisure. Bolting eliminates this risk. We include professional anchoring in our safe installation service.

Is a master key system less secure? expand_more

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.

Can you open my commercial safe if I forgot the combination? expand_more

Yes, we are highly trained safe technicians. We can open most commercial safes without damage using manipulation techniques or specialized tools. We can also change the combination after and provide documentation for your records.
