Did someone break into your home?

Are you having trouble opening or closing a lock?

Some locks require a key for them to be open as well as for them to be closed. If you notice that your key keeps getting stuck in a lock, it may be time to get that lock replaced. Once you key does not spin in the lock without resistance or without being stuck, it means that you are at risk for having a broken key. It is better to replace the lock rather than experiencing a broken key while you are trying to get access of any property that you have. We have all types of locks so we are sure that we have a lock to suit your needs. Call us and let us change that lock for you. If the key gets stuck in the lock periodically, the same thing applies.

This means that you may not be able to retrieve the key to your home that you had given to them. If this is happening to you, the best way to resolve this situation is to change your locks. Even if you ask someone to retrieve the keys, there is really no way for you to be sure that the keys were not duplicated.
