"He did a fantastic job on my grandma's 2014 Cadillac. She lost her key, so we had to have a new one programmed and a physical key made. He even gave us a few spare physical keys for free. He was courteous, friendly, and very professional. I would definitely recommend him. "

"Ballard Lock & Key did a GREAT job! When I called, they were very responsive and provided me recommendations about the type of keyless locks available I could purchase (which I purchased separately from Amazon). With the new lock in hand, I called back the next day to make an appointment and they were able to get me scheduled just a couple of days later. The locksmith arrived on time, with a mask and gloves (which I appreciated greatly, since most service folks aren't, even in this age of Covid), did a great job installing the keyless lock, and fixed a problematic lock on an outer door. The price was $200 for everything. I might not have appreciated how great things were with Ballard Lock & Key had I not tried another company first that failed to respond to emails and calls. It was only after Ballard Lock & Key was scheduled to come out that the first company finally responded and offered to install the keyless lock - nothing else - for $525 to $575. Bottom line: Go with Ballard Lock & Key. They're awesome."

FAQs for locksmith service projects in Seattle, WA

The installation timeframe varies based on door preparation and lock complexity. For doors already prepared with appropriate holes, installation might take 15 to 30 minutes. New installations requiring drilling take one to two hours. First-time DIY installers should allocate additional time to ensure proper alignment and function. Professional locksmiths complete standard installations efficiently due to their specialized tools and experience.

Most residential doors can accommodate deadbolts, but certain door types present challenges. Solid wood and fiberglass doors accept standard deadbolt hardware, while metal doors require specialized drilling equipment. Hollow-core interior doors lack the structural integrity to properly support deadbolts without additional reinforcement. Doors should be at least 1⅜ inches thick to properly house standard deadbolt mechanisms.

Door warranties remain valid when deadbolts are installed according to the manufacturer's guidelines. However, improper installation that damages the door structure might affect warranty coverage. 

Before modifying any door under warranty, review the documentation for specific limitations or requirements regarding hardware installation. Some manufacturers provide templates or guidelines for acceptable lock placement to maintain warranty protection.

Rekeying offers a more economical alternative to complete replacement when you need to change access, but the lock mechanism remains in good condition. This process involves reconfiguring the internal pins to work with a new key while retaining the existing hardware. For homeowners with multiple locks, rekeying provides the convenience of using a single key for all entry points while maintaining security.
