Locked out
Safely, right now
- Stay somewhere warm and safe while you wait, such as a neighbour's or your car.
- Don't force a window or the door; it only adds a repair.
- Have a photo ID with your address ready if you can.
Key broke in the lock
Safely, right now
- Leave the lock alone: pushing the piece further in makes it harder to get out.
- Keep the piece you still have. It helps cut a new key.
Lock won't turn
Safely, right now
- Don't force the key. A bent or broken key makes it harder.
- Don't spray oil or glue into it, and don't pour hot water on it in the cold.
Lost keys
Safely, right now
- Keys lost together with your address? Assume someone could use them.
- Don't hide a spare key anywhere outside in the meantime, not even under the mat.

The fix, explained · Castle Green
What is the door doing?
EmergencyHome Lockout ServiceYou stepped out to grab the recycling bin and the door swung shut behind you.
The fix
If you rent, a lockout visit works much the same way, with a little extra care around who holds which keys. You show identification and something tying you to the unit, such as a lease or a piece of mail, and the locksmith opens your door.
EmergencyBusiness Lockout ServiceAfter last night's power flicker the card reader beside the clinic door shows nothing.
The fix
Commercial doors carry hardware that most homes never see, and reading it correctly is the first skill of a business lockout. An aluminium storefront door usually has a narrow mortise cylinder driving a hookbolt deadlock or a paddle-operated deadlatch.
EmergencyBroken Key ExtractionThat key had been bending a little for years, and you kept straightening it.
The fix
What you have when the locksmith leaves matters as much as what was removed. The fragment is out and shown to you.

The fix
There are really two jobs inside one call. The first is tonight: make the door close and lock so the household can sleep.

EmergencySeized & Jammed Lock OpeningThe lock works, but only if you lean on the door with your hip while turning the key.
The fix
Many jammed locks are not lock problems at all. Wood doors swell in humid weather and shrink in dry winter air, hinges loosen and let the door drop, and a strike plate that was fine in spring is a few millimetres out by autumn.

What the census means at the door
27%
Newer homes. About 27% of homes in Oakville were built in 1980 or earlier, according to the 2021 Census.
In areas of recent construction, doors mostly carry builder-grade locks that were chosen for the whole development at once. They work, but a household that wants more can upgrade the cylinder or the whole set without any surprises about fit.
59%
A mix of homes. Single-detached houses make up about 59% of homes in Oakville (2021 Census).
In areas of mixed housing, landlords may own a house here and a few units there. A locksmith can put all of it under one master system so the owner carries one key while each tenant's key opens only their own door.

Older houses in Castle Green get a locksmith who respects them. We work around original trim, keep period hardware where it can be kept, and match finishes when something new is needed so the door still looks like it belongs to the house. Modern security can sit behind a hundred-year-old face; that is a matter of choosing parts carefully.
Oakville, Charnwood, Holton Heights, Kent Gardens and Sunningdale
Told what to expect. Before starting we say how long the work usually takes, what noise or mess is involved and what the door will be like afterwards.
Room to decline. If a suggestion does not suit you, decline it. We will do what you asked for, do it well and leave the rest as advice.
A tidy handover. Keys counted into your hand, the area cleaned, the old parts dealt with and a plain summary of the work. Then we are gone.

Which fix fits?
IfThe shop's back door only latches if someone slams it.
ThenAdjust the closer and realign the strike.
Usually the closer is out of adjustment or the strike has drifted; both are set, not replaced.
IfThe fire exit alarm sounds every time staff use that door.
ThenService the exit device and rethink the routine.
Exit alarms are meant to sound; if staff need that door daily, an arrangement that still lets everyone leave freely is found.
IfThe storefront lock is worn and the key barely catches.
ThenReplace the cylinder with a commercial-grade one.
Storefront cylinders take a beating; a heavier grade is built for that traffic.
IfSomeone smashed the little window beside the door, reached in and turned the thumb-turn.

Ask us anything about locks
My key turns all the way but the door stays locked. What has failed?
Usually the link between the cylinder and the bolt. On a storefront lock the cam behind the mortise cylinder can wear or slip out of position; on a lever or mortise lockset the tailpiece or a spring in the deadlatch gives up. Your key is fine and so are the pins, so once the door is opened the fix is a new cam, tailpiece or latch, and your existing keys carry on working.
Why do keys break more in winter?
A daytime thaw sends meltwater into the keyway, and overnight it freezes with the plug held solid. The key goes in, meets resistance, and the natural reaction is to turn harder. Brass gives before ice does, especially at a deep cut that has thinned over years. Cold also stiffens old grease in the cylinder. De-icer, gentle warmth and a dry lubricant break the pattern.
The lever on our shop door goes down but the latch does not pull back. Is that a lock problem?
It usually points to the mortise case rather than the cylinder, and it is a common complaint on commercial doors. Inside the case a return spring, a worn hub, or another part of the latch's drive path can have failed, so the lever moves without driving the latch. The locksmith gets the door open, draws the case out of the door edge, replaces the worn part, cleans and greases the contact points and refits everything, then tests lever, key and thumb-turn together.
Does the locksmith keep any of my codes or my account details?
No. The administrator account is created by you, on your phone, with your email, and the codes are entered by you or read out by you and typed while you watch. The service note records the model, the door work and the keys cut, never a code or a password. If a technician programmed a temporary code for testing, it is deleted in front of you before the visit ends.
