Key Duplication
This is a basic service that any locksmith should offer. Key duplication is a good service to take advantage of if you want to make sure you won’t ever end up locked out of your house. It is also good to do if you run a business and need multiple employees to have access to a key.
Access Control
For those who don’t want to deal with keys, they might consider access control. This is all about restricting access to certain points of a property. Perhaps you don’t want customers to be able to get into a certain area, so you have a pad set up with a code that must be entered to get in. Or maybe you have a warehouse that houses hazardous materials, and only certain employees should be able to get in. With access control, you can limit access by means of a passcode, fingerprint, or another form of entry.
Rekeying Locks
Having locks rekeyed is important at times. Some might opt to have locks replaced completely, but you might be interested in merely having your locks rekeyed. If it is an acceptable option to rekey locks, perhaps after a tenant leaves or an employee leaves, then a lock and security provider will advise you to do this.
Locksmiths can do a great deal to help out with commercial property security. One of the things that they can do is install a safe. It is important to have money locked away if you do own a business. Of course, a safe can also be beneficial in your home. Even if you completely trust everyone who comes into your property, you still want items like loose cash to be protected in the event of a flood or fire, and you can get a water resistant and fire resistant safe! There are many different kinds of safes available, and an expert will be able to help you navigate the options.
Let’s say you went to remove your key from your car’s ignition, and it got stuck. You tugged on it, and then it completely broke off! A professional might be able to provide broken key extraction, but if this is not an option, they might recommend that you use an ignition cylinder replacement service. While a dealership is usually able to do this, using a lock and security provider tends to be the less expensive option.
