Door Lock Installation & Repair

Electronic Locks

Tired of locking yourself out or having to carry a house key?  Keypad locks can be used to lock your house without needing keys.  A separate code can be given to the babysitter and changed at any time.

High Security Lock Cylinders

High security lock cylinders can be installed into a pre-existing lock in order to upgrade its security and provide key control.  These cylinders grant the lock increased resistance to:  picking, bumping, drilling, and unauthorized key duplication.

Lever Locks

Install a lever lock to secure a door.  Lever locks need minimal wrist motion, making them easier to turn than conventional knob locks, which is ideal for those with physical disabilities or arthritis.

Door Locks

Knob Locks

Install a knob lock to secure a door.  If your door knobs are looking work and dated, they can easily be replaced with new hardware.

Deadbolt Locks

Install a deadbolt lock to add an extra layer of defense to a door.  These locks are more secure than levers and knobs, as a result of the bolt which extends fully into the frame and does not use a spring mechanism.  This secures the door and prevents credit carding.

Mortise Locks

Mortise locks provide several important benefits.  They can be disassembled to be repaired (unlike many locks which cannot be taken apart).  The cylinders can easily be replaced to match it to a new type of key.

Bit (Skeleton) Locks

Bit key locks can be especially tricky to work on as they are typically quite old and replacement parts are no longer readily available.  Albemarle Lock has repaired and made keys for many of these locks.

Lock Keying & Key Cutting (Duplication & Generation)

Rekey Locks

Key all of your locks the same.  Rekey a lock to match it to a new key without having to replace the lock itself.  This allows multiple locks to be keyed to one single key.  Rekeying the lock prevents any old keys from working.

Residential Key Duplication

Duplicating residential keys is not always an easy task.  Especially in an older home, many of the keys can be hard to find anywhere except at a locksmith.  Albemarle Lock makes just about every key imaginable.

Lost Key Generation

If all copies of a key are lost it's not too late.  Albemarle Lock can reproduce a working key.  If the key goes to a door lock, the locks can be rekeyed to a brand new key.
