Locksmith in WestonBroken key?
Leave the pieces to us.
Cold mornings in Weston are hard on tired brass, and a key that has been bending for years finally lets go inside the lock. We remove the snapped piece without harming the cylinder, look at why it failed, and cut a fresh key from the code or the remaining half before we leave.

Keys cut right, locks set true.
- Plain words. We talk about pins, cylinders and strikes only when it helps you understand. Otherwise it is 'this is why the door sticks and here is what fixes it'.
- Respect for your door. We treat an old wooden door or a new steel one as yours, not as a project. Non-destructive methods come first, and we ask before drilling anything.
- Knowing what you are left with. Before we leave, you will know exactly what changed, how many keys exist and what to keep an eye on. Nothing is left as a mystery.
- Open 24/7, same fees any hour. Call about rekeying your new home.

How a visit goes
Exit hardware is one place where we do not improvise. A push bar on a fire exit has to release with a single motion and no key, and a door on an escape route has to swing the right way.

Call and describe the door
Describe the property, the hardware and what has changed, and the visit starts from what you have seen.
Step 2 of 5
On our way
Has it been forced, does it drag, who has had keys? Those answers tell us whether the frame, the cylinder or the key list needs attention first.

2021 census: what it means at the door
Every square is one home in a hundred.
- 58 in 100 homes · older homes
- 23 in 100 homes · mostly attached
- About 58% of homes in Toronto were built in 1980 or earlier, according to the 2021 Census.Basement and side entries on older homes were often fitted long after the house was built, with whatever lock was on hand. Bringing those doors up to the standard of the front entry, and onto the same key, is a common and satisfying job.
- Single-detached houses make up about 23% of homes in Toronto (2021 Census).Landlords and property managers dominate in attached housing, and they want keys organised. A locksmith sets up master systems so a manager carries one key while each tenant's key opens only their own door.

Things people wonder about
Do you work with our alarm company and access-control provider?
Yes, and it makes the visit smoother. The alarm station is told an entry is expected and the authorised person handles the disarm and password. For access control, the provider can often confirm the controller's status, unlock a magnetic lock remotely, or re-enrol fobs once you are inside, while the locksmith handles the mechanical side and the override cylinder. Nobody's wiring is cut; each party does the part it is set up to do.
The intruder found our spare keys. What should be rekeyed?
Everything those keys fit. That usually means the front, back and side doors, the garage man-door, the mailbox and any padlocks, and in a rental the suite door with the landlord's involvement. Rekeying changes a serviceable cylinder to answer to a new key, and a cylinder that cannot be rekeyed is replaced instead. Doing every affected opening in one visit, keyed alike where the cylinders are compatible, means no forgotten door still answers to the stolen ring.
How do I know what brand or type of lock is on my mailbox?
You generally do not need to; identifying the hardware is part of the visit. The locksmith reads the maker's mark on the lock face, measures the cylinder and cam, and checks the hole pattern in the compartment door, which together point to a matching replacement even when the original brand is no longer sold.
What does key control actually mean?
It means knowing, at any time, how many keys exist for a given door or level, who holds each one, and how a new copy would be authorized. A master key system supports key control by design, since keys are marked by role, logged by serial, and cut only against the chart, rather than copied informally whenever someone asks for one.
