Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What should I do if I’m locked out of my Tulare home?
Stay calm and avoid forcing the door, which can damage both the lock and door frame. Call our 24/7 emergency hotline with your address—whether you’re near the Heritage Complex or tucked away in South Tulare—and we’ll dispatch a technician promptly. We use non-destructive entry methods to unlock your door safely and efficiently.
Can you program transponder keys for all vehicle makes and models?
Yes. Our automotive locksmith specialists carry up-to-date programming tools for domestic and foreign vehicles, including late-model cars requiring advanced ECU synchronization. From Ford F-150s to Hyundai Elantras, we ensure seamless key-to-vehicle communication.
How long does it take to rekey multiple locks in my home?
Rekeying a standard five-lock set typically takes 30–45 minutes. For larger jobs—such as master key systems in commercial properties—timelines vary based on complexity, but we aim to complete most jobs in a single visit.
Do you offer maintenance plans for commercial door hardware?
Absolutely. Regular maintenance prevents unexpected failures and ensures compliance with safety regulations. Our customizable plans include quarterly or annual inspections, lubrication, adjustments, and detailed reports for all locks, closers, and exit devices.
What’s involved in installing a badge-based access control system?
We begin with a site survey to assess your Tulare property’s layout, electrical infrastructure, and security objectives. After recommending hardware—readers, control panels, strikes—we handle installation, wiring, software configuration, and administrator training. You’ll be able to add and revoke credentials, generate access logs, and set time-based entry schedules with ease.
