When you move into a new home, fire a disgruntled employee, or lose a set of keys, your property's security is compromised. You don't know who has a copy of your key. However, running out to the hardware store to buy entirely new locksets is often an expensive and unnecessary hassle. We provide professional lock rekeying and repair services across Montclair State University, NJ. We manipulate the internal mechanics of your existing hardware, rendering old keys useless and restoring total access control to your property for a fraction of the cost of replacement.

A standard deadbolt contains a cylinder filled with small brass pins of varying lengths. The correct key pushes these pins to a perfectly aligned "shear line," allowing the cylinder to turn. When we rekey a lock, we remove the cylinder, discard the old pins, and insert brand new pins that correspond to a completely different key pattern. Your old hardware remains on the door, but the old keys will never turn it again. We then provide you with a fresh set of keys.
Do you have a heavy keyring pulling down your pocket? We can streamline your life. We can rekey the front door, back door, garage, and side gates so that one single key opens every lock in your house. For businesses in Montclair State University, NJ, we design complex Master Key Systems, allowing managers a single key to open all doors, while restricting employee keys to only their specific offices or zones.
Standard hardware store deadbolts are highly vulnerable to lock bumping and drilling. If you want to fortify your home's perimeter, we install high-security cylinders (such as Medeco, Schlage Primus, or Mul-T-Lock). These locks feature anti-drill hardened steel inserts, side-bitting pin variations, and restricted keyways, meaning nobody can duplicate your key without your authorized signature card.
Regain total control over who has access to your property. Let our security experts rekey or upgrade your locks today with precision and speed.

"We just bought our first home and wanted to make sure nobody else had a key. They came out the same day we closed, rekeyed all 5 doors to a single key, and charged a very fair price."
"I run a retail store and had to let a manager go. I called them at 6 PM, and they were there by 7 PM to rekey the front doors and the office. Great peace of mind."
"The deadbolt on our front door was constantly jamming. Instead of making me buy a new $150 lock, the technician took it apart, fixed a bent piece inside, and now it works perfectly."
Plans for the State Normal school were initiated in 1903, and required a year for the State of New Jersey to grant permission to build the school. It was then established as New Jersey State Normal School at Montclair, a normal school, in 1908 approximately 5 years after the initial planning of the school. At the time, Governor John Franklin Fort attended the dedication of the school in 1908, and the school was to have its first principal Charles Sumner Chapin that same year. The first building constructed was College Hall, and it still stands today. At the time, the campus was around 25 acres (100,000 m2), had 8 faculty members and 187 students. The first graduating class, which numbered at 45 students, contained William O. Trapp, who would then go on to win the Pulitzer Prize for journalism in 1929. The first dormitory was then built five years later, in 1915, and is known as Russ Hall.
