Deadbolt Won't Turn

You're pushing, pulling, and jiggling the key but the deadbolt just won't budge. It could be a misaligned door, worn pins, or a seized cylinder. We diagnose the actual cause and fix it properly.

Lock Frozen in Winter

Delaware winters freeze locks solid. Forcing a frozen lock often breaks the key inside. We safely thaw and lubricate locks using professional methods — no hot water damage to your door.

Lock Mechanism Grinding or Loose

When a lock grinds, clicks, or feels like it's about to fall apart, something inside is worn or broken. We disassemble, identify the failed component, and repair or replace just what's needed.
