"Had Kwikey change all the locks at our dental office after a staff member left on bad terms. They rekeyed seven doors and the supply closet in a single afternoon. Every lock keyed to the new master key system. Zero disruption to our patients."
"Ignition cylinder replacement on my older Chevy Silverado. Tech matched the new cylinder to my existing key so I don't have to carry two keys. Attention to detail like this is why I recommend Kwikey!"
"Inherited an old floor safe in my commercial building and had no combination. Kwikey drilled it cleanly, recovered the contents, and then installed a brand new digital safe in its place. Excellent end-to-end service from opening to installation."

Kwikey Locksmith provides priority emergency response to restore your home's security after a burglary. We replace damaged locks, reinforce door frames, and upgrade your security hardware — all in one visit.
Preventing a Second Break-In
Statistics show that burglarized homes are more likely to be targeted again within 6 months. That's why we don't just replace what was broken — we upgrade it.

Our documentation is formatted for insurance submissions and includes before-and-after descriptions of the work performed — making your claim process as smooth as possible.
