Car Door Lock & Cylinder FAQ

Can a bad key damage my door lock?

Yes. A badly worn or copied-over-and-over key can wear out the cylinder faster. We can cut a fresh key to factory specs and repair the lock at the same time.

Do you have to remove the door panel?

For some repairs and replacements, yes. We’ll handle it carefully and reinstall everything properly when we’re done.

Can you match a new lock to my existing key?

On many vehicles, we can key the new lock cylinder to your current key so you don’t have to carry multiple keys.
