Residential Locksmith

Your home’s security starts with the right locks. They are the first line of defense against unwanted intruders. 

Proper lock installation is a crucial step in protecting your home. At My Locksmith Aurora, we specialize in installing various types of residential locks.

• High-security lock: These locks are designed to resist picking, drilling, and other forced entry methods. 
• Deadbolts: These robust locks require a key or thumb turn to unlock, creating a strong barrier against intruders. 
• Smart locks: These locks can be controlled remotely via your smartphone and offer keyless entry. They are for homeowners who want to integrate convenience with security.

Our experts can help you choose the best locks for your home based on its layout, neighborhood, and your specific security needs.

Sometimes, a malfunctioning lock may not need replacing, it might just need careful attention and repair.

Our expert locksmiths provide expert lock repair services to restore the functionality of your existing locks. We can address issues ranging from worn-out mechanisms to misaligned doors.

Repairing a lock is often more cost-effective than replacing it, and our team will guide you on the best course of action. We also provide routine maintenance to ensure your locks remain reliable and functioning securely.

Lockouts can be unexpected, frustrating, and stressful. For such situations, we provide emergency lockout services at any time of the day (or night). We use the latest tools and techniques to regain access to your home without causing damage to your locks or doors.

We pride ourselves on quick response times. Whether you have lost your keys, had them stolen, or the lock is malfunctioning, we have the expertise to get you back inside the home in no time.

A key can sometimes break inside a lock due to wear and tear, forced entry attempts, or using the wrong key. Over time, metal fatigue can make keys prone to fracture, leaving fragments stuck in the lock.

Attempting to remove the broken pieces yourself can worsen the situation and damage the lock mechanism. At My Locksmith Aurora, we specialize in broken key extraction. Our expert technicians use specialized tools and techniques to safely extract the broken key while preserving the integrity of your lock.

If you need extra copies of your house keys or want to rekey your locks, we offer professional key duplication and rekeying services. We duplicate all types of residential keys, including:

• Padlock keys
• High-security keys
• Mailbox keys
• Cabinet keys
• Antique keys
• Smart lock keys

Whether you have moved into a new home or misplaced your keys, rekeying your locks ensures that only you have access to your property. It involves adjusting the internal mechanism of your locks so that they work with a new key, making old keys useless. 

Rekeying is a quick and affordable option if you want to avoid the trouble of installing new locks. We can adjust your existing locks to work with a new set of keys, giving you complete control over who enters your home. 

As technology evolves, so do our solutions for enhancing the security of your home. We offer a range of smart locks designed to make access both secure and effortless. These include:
