A snapped key can damage the cylinder when forced. We remove accessible fragments, inspect the keyway and explain whether key cutting, cylinder repair or replacement makes sense.
Lost or stolen keys create an access risk even when the lock still works. Rekeying changes the operating key while preserving compatible hardware, often restoring control quickly.

Pricing depends on the lock, door, time, access conditions, labor and replacement hardware. We do not publish a misleading one-price-fits-all figure. The technician assesses the opening, explains viable options and seeks approval before work. Contact King Locksmiths for a service-specific estimate.
If the existing lock is sound, rekeying can disable the missing key while keeping the hardware. Replacement may be wiser when the lock is damaged, obsolete or below your security goal. King Locksmiths can inspect it and explain both paths before you decide.
Often, yes. Historic mortise and rim locks may allow targeted repair, cylinder work or carefully matched replacement, but condition matters. We inspect the hardware and surrounding door before recommending changes. Book a preservation-conscious assessment with King Locksmiths rather than forcing a failing lock.
