Bradburn Subdivision Lock & Key Co.

We live where we work, which changes how we work. The person whose front door we rekey today might be behind us in the grocery line tomorrow. That keeps us honest in the small ways that matter: showing up when we said, explaining what a job involves and why, admitting when a lock is fine and just needs a drop of lubricant. It also means we know the housing around here, the older doors and the new builds, the strip-mall back entrances and the cars that fill the commuter lots. Local knowledge is not a slogan for us. It is simply the result of years spent opening, fixing and fitting the doors around us.

Shop rules

Hardware chosen for winter, fitted with care.

  1. Plain words. We talk about pins, cylinders and strikes only when it helps you understand. Otherwise it is 'this is why the door sticks and here is what fixes it'.
  2. Respect for your door. We treat an old wooden door or a new steel one as yours, not as a project. Non-destructive methods come first, and we ask before drilling anything.
  3. Knowing what you are left with. Before we leave, you will know exactly what changed, how many keys exist and what to keep an eye on. Nothing is left as a mystery.
  4. Open 24/7, same fees any hour. Ask us what the visit involves.

On every job

  1. Rule of the job1 of 3

    Making the door safe first

    The priority is a door that closes and locks tonight. We assess the frame, the strike and the lock, and secure whatever was forced so you can stop worrying about the opening.

  2. Rule of the job2 of 3

    Sorting permanent from temporary

    Some damage needs a proper repair later; some can be fixed on the spot. We separate the two clearly and explain what a lasting fix involves without pushing you into it.

  3. Rule of the job3 of 3

    Rekeying or replacing

    If keys were taken or the lock was compromised, we rekey or replace before leaving. You end the visit with a door that locks and keys that only you hold.

How a visit goes

The right answer for a shop with six staff is different from the right answer for a family of four, and we try not to carry one into the other. Homes generally want fewer keys and simpler routines; businesses want control and a record.

    Call and describe the door

    Describe the property, the hardware and what has changed, and the visit starts from what you have seen.

    The priority is a door that closes and locks tonight. We assess the frame, the strike and the lock, and secure whatever was forced so you can stop worrying about the opening.

    Respect for your door

    We treat an old wooden door or a new steel one as yours, not as a project. Non-destructive methods come first, and we ask before drilling anything.
