Lock problems we fix

  • Key hard to turn or stuck in the lock.
  • Deadbolt doesn't line up with the strike; you have to push or lift the door to lock it.
  • Loose knobs, levers and handle sets.
  • Door not latching or latch sticking.
  • Rusted or corroded locks — common near the ocean in South Florida.
  • Broken key inside — see broken key extraction.

Repair first, replace when needed

We clean, lubricate, adjust and replace worn parts where that fixes the problem. When a lock is too worn to trust, we recommend a replacement and give you the price before any work. All work carries our 90-day warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is my key hard to turn?

A worn key, a dirty or worn cylinder, or a deadbolt that rubs on the strike because the door has shifted. We find the cause before replacing anything.

My deadbolt won't lock unless I push the door. Can you fix it?

Yes. That's usually a misaligned strike or door. We adjust the strike plate and latch so the bolt slides in freely.

Is it better to repair or replace?

If the lock is in good shape, a repair or adjustment is cheaper. If parts are broken, badly worn or rusted, a new lock is the better value — we'll tell you honestly.

How much does lock repair cost?

It depends on the problem and parts. Send us a photo of the lock and describe what it does, and we'll quote before we come out.
