Can I get a copy of a key even if it says; "Do Not Duplicate?"
- “Do Not Duplicate”
- “Do Not Copy”
- “Unlawful To Copy”
If you need a copy of a key with one of these labels, we can help.
You will need to provide a letter of authorization from the owner of the key with a request to duplicate. This letter must be:
- On company letterhead
- Identify the key to be copied
- The number of keys needed
- The name and contact information of the person that will pick up the keys (This person will also need to fill out a “Request for Restricted Keys” form).
Please note that we reserve the right to refuse to copy keys.
What is the difference between a fresh lock installation and a lock installation?
A general lock installation simply means that we install new lock hardware in the space where older locks were already in place.
What is the difference between a lock change and a lock rekey?
Lock rekeys are a much quicker process and only involve switching the existing lock’s internal mechanism so that old keys will no longer work. Then, new keys are issued that will work with your original locks. This is a great option when you move into a new home.
Is it true that only a car dealership can issue new laser cut car keys?
At Pros On Call, our mobile units have the advanced equipment necessary to provide you with new laser cut keys and we come to you. We can also replace transponder keys and car fobs on the spot.
