Residential Locksmith in Aurora
New to Aurora, or just lost track of who has keys? Have the locks rekeyed and the doors checked in one visit.
Quiet streets, careful locks in Aurora
Aurora Heights, Aurora Highlands and the historic streets around Yonge have calm neighbourhoods where locks tend to be old rather than broken. Older doors benefit from a stronger strike, longer screws and a hinge check, and new owners should rekey. Families near the Aurora GO often choose keypads so a lost key is no longer a problem. Bring a photo or drop into our Finch Avenue East office to compare deadbolts.

Common questions
- Which lock detail is most often overlooked on an older Aurora house? The strike plate screws. Short screws hold the plate to the trim only, and longer ones into the framing make the door much harder to force.
- How do I know if I need a rekey or a new lock in Aurora? If the lock works but you worry who has keys, rekeying is enough. If it is worn or damaged, we replace it.
