Why bother trying to repair a lock? Is it worth it?
In our disposable society many people are inclined to just buy something new when it breaks. Additionally, some in the trade do not have the knowledge or patience to determine the problem and how to resolve it, thus replacing the lock is the only option they can offer you.
When faced with a lock problem, replacement may not be a good idea or be simple to do for several reasons. First there is the door prep; what holes have been cut in the door and frame, what sizes and positioning? Will all of the holes be covered and what about the “footprint” left on the door from your current hardware, will a new lock cover it or will you see the old paint color from beneath or the faded finish after the new lock is installed? Many manufacturers have unique hole patterns that have been cut into the existing door, while off the shelf locks may look enticing they often cannot be applied to these door preps. Our experts can help sort out these factors for you.
Another important point to consider is the quality of your existing lock. Would you be downgrading your security and quality or losing some functionality by replacing it? Nowadays most of the nice looking entry sets at the home stores do not have locking capability on the lower handle or knob. This is something to be aware of. We will help sort out the options enabling you to make the best decision for your circumstances.
Whether its repair or replace we are here to help you.

HIGH SECURITY LOCKS
First Lock & Security Technologies includes High Security Locks and Key Control products to help you feel safe and secure in your home or business. In many instances, it is simply not enough to rely on conventional locks, cylinders and keys to achieve true security. Designed by engineers, patented by lawyers and manufactured to very high tolerances to prevent picking and physical attacks with tools and force, high security locks are an upgraded alternative to traditional locking mechanisms. Being activated in stages of precise movement, timing and accuracy, the multiple moving parts impede the unauthorized users from gaining entry through force.
SAFES
Commercial and residential locals often rely on safes to keep personal information and valuables safe from any kind of threats. With burglar safes, fire safes, and combination safes available, we have many options to safeguard your possessions.
Fire Safes
First Lock & Security Technologies offers fire safes that are engineered to protect important items from fires. With the insulation to keep heat out, the contents of the safe is protected. Encased in a metal housing to form a box is thick insulating fire brick material. Since the metal casing is often thin on fire safes, just enough to hold the fire brick material in place, it can be easily pried open.
Burglary Safes
These safes resist forcible entry attacks with their carefully thought design. To form a box with an even thicker steel door, the safe is made with essentially steel plates welded together. The sophistication of the door’s locking and relocking devices determine the rating of a burglary safe as well as the thickness of solid steel.The higher rating the safe, the more protected your belongings will be.
