🏠 Residential Questions

Residential FAQs

Can you rekey my home locks?+

Absolutely. Rekeying is one of our most popular residential services. We rekey all locks to a single convenient key, perfect after moving, losing keys, or after a break-in. Fast, affordable, 100% satisfaction guaranteed.

What's the difference between rekeying and replacing locks?+

Rekeying changes the internal pins of your existing lock so old keys no longer work. It's faster and much cheaper than full lock replacement. Lock replacement installs entirely new hardware. We'll recommend the best option for your situation at no charge.

Do you install smart locks and keypad entry?+

Yes! We install and service all major brands of smart locks, keypad entry systems, and keyless entry hardware for residential properties across Southeast Missouri.

🚗 Automotive Questions

Automotive FAQs

Can you make a car key if I've lost all my keys?+

Yes! Even if you've lost every key to your vehicle, we can typically cut and program a new key on-site. We handle transponder keys, laser-cut keys, proximity keys, and smart keys for most makes and models, usually faster and cheaper than a dealership.

Can you program a key fob or remote?+

Yes, we program key fobs, remote start remotes, and proximity keys for most vehicle makes and models right at your location.

Do you respond to car lockouts on the highway?+

Yes! If you're locked out of your car anywhere in Southeast Missouri, including on the highway, in a parking lot, or at a gas station, we'll dispatch to your exact location.

Yes! We install and service keypad entry, keycard access, magnetic locks, electrified panic bars, and complete access control systems for businesses of all sizes across Southeast Missouri.

Can you create a master key system for my building?+

Absolutely. We design and install custom master key systems that give management full access while limiting employee access to specific areas. We can add grand master and sub-master levels for multi-tenant or multi-floor buildings.

Do you service commercial doors and panic bars?+

Yes. We install, repair, and service commercial doors, panic bars, door closers, continuous hinges, and ADA-compliant exit hardware for businesses throughout Cape Girardeau, Sikeston, and Southeast Missouri.

Safes FAQs

Can you open a safe if I've forgotten the combination?+
