Our driving range
We grew up working the doors of Hamilton and gradually followed our customers outward. Today the towns on this page are all part of a regular week, and we treat every one of them as home turf.
Hamilton
Condo doors and shared entrances
Living in a building in Hamilton means two kinds of doors: the suite door you control and the common doors the building manages. We service both, working within house rules on the outer hardware and giving your own door a cylinder, strike and closer that suit how the unit is…
About 61% of homes in Hamilton were built in 1980 or earlier, according to the 2021 Census. Old brass keys wear thin, and a key that has bent for years finally lets go in a cold cylinder.
Ancaster Heights
Rekey. Repair. Replace, if it needs it.
Most locks in Ancaster Heights do not need replacing. They need new pins, a clean cylinder, or a strike moved a few millimetres so the bolt stops fighting the frame.
About 61% of homes in Hamilton were built in 1980 or earlier, according to the 2021 Census. Period hardware on older homes deserves matching parts, not a mismatched modern set.
Clearview Estates
Rekey. Repair. Replace, if it needs it.
Most locks in Clearview Estates do not need replacing. They need new pins, a clean cylinder, or a strike moved a few millimetres so the bolt stops fighting the frame.
About 61% of homes in Hamilton were built in 1980 or earlier, according to the 2021 Census. Decades of seasons move a frame, and an older house often has a front door that locks easily in summer and fights in winter.
Dancaster Courts
Broken key? Leave the pieces to us.
Cold mornings in Dancaster Courts 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…
About 61% of homes in Hamilton 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.
Greenside Acres
Your shop's front door is your first impression
Customers in Greenside Acres notice a storefront door that slams, drags or needs a shoulder. We service the closers, pivots and locks that keep a commercial entrance quiet and secure, fit cylinders that resist tampering, and set the hardware so the door greets people properly…
About 61% of homes in Hamilton were built in 1980 or earlier, according to the 2021 Census. Older homes tend to have had many hands on their doors: owners, tenants, tradespeople, family.
Harmony Hall II
Master keys for buildings in Harmony Hall II
A small apartment building, a clinic with six rooms, a shop with a back office: each in Harmony Hall II benefits from one key that opens everything and individual keys that open only what they should. We design the system, pin the cylinders, and record who holds which key so it…
About 61% of homes in Hamilton were built in 1980 or earlier, according to the 2021 Census. Where most homes were built decades ago, doors often still carry their original mortise locks and brass knobs.
Highland Park Survey
Older homes. Original locks, still working.
Plenty of houses in Highland Park Survey still carry their first mortise locks and brass knobs, and they are worth keeping. We service that hardware so it turns freely again, find matching parts where they exist, and only suggest replacement when a piece genuinely cannot be…
About 61% of homes in Hamilton were built in 1980 or earlier, according to the 2021 Census. Older housing means older frames.
Maple Lane
Change the locks, keep the peace of mind
Sometimes the honest answer is a full lock change: a cylinder that fights every key, a handle set that no longer matches the door, a break-up where rekeying feels like half a measure. For homes across Maple Lane we replace the hardware, match the finish to what is already on the…
About 61% of homes in Hamilton were built in 1980 or earlier, according to the 2021 Census. In neighbourhoods of established homes, keys have often been copied many times over many owners.
Maple Lane Annex
Calm hands on your door
A lock problem is rarely only a lock problem. It is a door that swells shut in a damp week, a key that snapped on a cold morning, a tenant who left without handing anything back.
About 61% of homes in Hamilton were built in 1980 or earlier, according to the 2021 Census. Older doors are usually thicker and made of solid wood, which is good news.
Maywood
Your shop's front door is your first impression

About 61% of homes in Hamilton were built in 1980 or earlier, according to the 2021 Census. Layers of paint build up on older doors and frames, and a lock that seemed to fail is sometimes a latch glued shut by the last coat.
Mineral Springs
Locksmith in Mineral Springs. Doors that lock properly.
Every street in Mineral Springs has a door that sticks, a deadbolt that needs a shove, or a key that was lent out and never came back. We rekey, repair and replace lock hardware for homes and businesses here, explain what we find in ordinary words, and leave you with keys that…
About 61% of homes in Hamilton were built in 1980 or earlier, according to the 2021 Census. Established homes often have non-standard bores and backsets from an earlier generation of hardware.
Mohawk Meadows
Exit doors, closers, and hardware that lasts
Commercial doors in Mohawk Meadows take a beating: hundreds of openings a day, deliveries, weather, the odd kick. We fit lever sets, closers, push bars and deadlatches built for that traffic, adjust them so the door shuts and latches on its own, and come back to service them…
About 61% of homes in Hamilton were built in 1980 or earlier, according to the 2021 Census. Where housing is mostly older, many entries still have only a knob lock and no deadbolt at all.
Nakoma
Secure the frame, not only the lock
Doors in Nakoma usually give at the frame long before the lock fails. A reinforced strike, longer screws into the stud and a properly set deadbolt do more than a new cylinder alone.
About 61% of homes in Hamilton were built in 1980 or earlier, according to the 2021 Census. Old brass keys wear thin, and a key that has bent for years finally lets go in a cold cylinder.
Oakhill
Deadbolts installed the right way
A deadbolt is only as strong as the hole it was bored into and the plate it throws into. In Oakhill we install new deadbolts on doors that have never had one, replace worn units on doors that have, and set the strike so the bolt slides home without lifting or leaning on the door.
About 61% of homes in Hamilton were built in 1980 or earlier, according to the 2021 Census. Period hardware on older homes deserves matching parts, not a mismatched modern set.

About 61% of homes in Hamilton were built in 1980 or earlier, according to the 2021 Census. Decades of seasons move a frame, and an older house often has a front door that locks easily in summer and fights in winter.
Perth Park
Keys that fit. Locks that hold.
A door that latches on the first push, a deadbolt that throws fully into the frame, a key that slides in without a wiggle. These small things add up to a home in Perth Park that feels secure every time you close the door behind you.
About 61% of homes in Hamilton 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.
Pinecrest
After a break-in, the door comes first
Once the report is filed, the door still has to lock tonight. In Pinecrest we repair split frames and bent strikes, replace damaged cylinders, rekey anything that might have been compromised, and talk through sensible upgrades later, once the house feels like yours again.

Pleasant Valley
One key for every door
Houses in Pleasant Valley collect locks over the years: a front door from one decade, a side entry from another, a garage door that takes its own key. We rekey them all to a single key so the ring in your pocket finally gets lighter, and set up a spare that lives somewhere…
