About us

At Academy Locksmiths our goal has always been to ensure the complete satisfaction of every customer, while offering friendly service at affordable rates. We specialize in securing homes and businesses with installation of high quality locks. We also rekey locks for our customers. In that way, we reuse the existing locks and make a different key to work. That insures that only the right people have a key. Old keys don't work any longer. It's expecially important when someone moves into a home, and doesn't want the previous owners to have access or the owner has decided that certain persons must not have access any longer. Past employees can be locked out and new keys issued to present employees. ACADEMY LOCKSMITHS is ready at a moment's notice to change locks on homes and businesses. We understand that many lock changes are called for in emergency circumstances. Lost keys, stolen purses, fired employees, and general insecurity due to misplaced keys, are all reasons to call ACADEMY LOCKSMITHS. We can usually rekey your home the same day that you call. Please call early. Commercial clients often require locks to be master keyed. We understand how to work with an existing masterkey and add locks within an existing master key system. ACADEMY LOCKSMITHS is strictly a service company. No walk in-shop is available. Our trucks are stocked with locks and key blanks for most purposes.
