"Employee that showed up was extremely rude and demanded that I pay cash for a dead bolt. $375 for a job that took 20 minutes. My 2 year old son was curious as to what he was doing and he yelled and shooed him away, and also yelled at another customer on the phone while he was at my house. Would NOT recommend"

Jon's Locks is your top local choice for automotive key duplication as well as remote and fob repair and reprogramming. We can also repair and replace car ignitions. We also specialize in high security locks, door closers and panic devices for commercial properties, and restricted key-ways for when you want extra security for your home or business. We can also install new deadbolts and re-key all your home locks.

"I needed to have the electronic key fob for my 2012 Kia Sportage replaced because the rubber buttons had degraded with age, basically rendering the remote useless. I couldn’t find anyone in the area that did these until Jon’s Locks was recommended to me. The guy working the shop was super friendly and personable, and made easy, friendly conversation while he cut and programmed my key for me, and the cost was far more reasonable than going to the dealership for the exact same thing. My wife is going to need a replacement key for her car soon as well and I’ll 100% head back to Jon’s to have it taken care of! Thank you!"

Locksmiths questions, answered by experts

Standard residential deadbolt locks come with a steel bolt that locks your door into place using a key (or keypad) on one side and a thumb turn on the other. When you lock it, the bolt slides into a strike plate on your door jamb to secure your door shut.

Yes, locksmiths can design and install master key systems that grant different levels of access to various employees while maintaining overall security.

Although you should rekey your locks after moving into a new home, you may feel more comfortable replacing the locks entirely. Here are some other scenarios when you should replace your locks rather than rekey them:

  • When someone moves out of your home.

  • There are too many copies of the existing key.

  • Your home experiences any type of break-in.

  • You lose your key with the address on it.

There are many types of deadbolts, but these tips work on most. First, address any grime buildup. A bit of WD-40 will loose up rust and dirt so the deadbolt can turn. Inspect the door and frame alignment if this doesn't resolve the issue. Adjust the strike plate or the deadbolt's position to improve alignment. If the problem persists, disassemble the lock to inspect for damaged or worn parts. If you are unsure how to do it, hire a local locksmith.

Typically, it can take around 15 minutes to rekey a lock. The time depends on the type of lock and how skilled you are at rekeying. The first time you rekey a lock, it may take a little longer. Once you get the hang of the process, it will move along much more quickly.
