Is master key systems in Richardson available after hours?

We run 8 AM to 8 PM daily in Richardson, weekends included. Outside those hours, call right at 8 AM and you're first in line, same flat pricing every day.

What's the difference between master keying and just re-keying a lock?

Re-keying changes one lock so old keys stop working; master keying adds a second key combination to each cylinder so a single master opens many doors while each door still has its own key. Master keying is the layered version built across a whole building.

Can you master key the Schlage and Kwikset locks we already have?

Usually yes. Most pin-tumbler commercial cylinders from Schlage, Kwikset, Medeco, and Best can be re-pinned to a master system, so you rarely need to buy all-new hardware.

Do I have to replace all my locks to set up a master system?

No. We re-pin your existing cylinders on site wherever the hardware supports it, and only recommend new locks for doors with worn or incompatible cylinders.

How Master Key Systems Work

We map your access needs, design the keying hierarchy, then re-pin your locks so one master opens everything and each key opens only its door.

1
On-site walkthrough
A tech comes to you, counts your doors, checks your existing hardware, and asks who needs access to which areas. This is where we catch problem doors before they cost you.
2
Design the key hierarchy
We build a keying schematic with your master, sub-masters for departments or floors, and individual change keys. You approve who opens what before we cut a single pin.
3
Re-pin and hand off
We re-pin or swap your cylinders on site, test every door, then give you labeled keys and a written key schedule for your records.
