Bayview Lock Services
Locksmithing is a trade you keep learning. Every year brings new smart locks, new vehicle systems and new ways for old hardware to fail. Our technicians spend time on the bench taking new products apart before fitting them on a customer's door, so that when we recommend something we know how it behaves in cold weather and after a thousand cycles. We share what we learn with you in plain terms. If a product is fussy, we say so. If a simple mechanical deadbolt would serve you better than anything with a battery, we say that too. Staying curious keeps the advice honest, and honest advice is what keeps people calling.
— Bayview Lock Services
- Clear about who can get inAfter any rekey or replacement we tell you exactly which keys work and how many copies exist. Key control is the point, and you should have the full picture.
- Careful with the buildingWe protect floors and finishes, work around your day where we can, and treat a shop or office with the same care as a home.
- The choice explained in your termsRather than product names, we talk about what each option means for you: who has access, how it copes with weather, how easy it is to change later.

How a visit goes
Heavy commercial doors move, and a good share of business lockouts are really door problems. A glass storefront door hangs on pivots or a continuous hinge that wear with thousands of openings a week, and once the door drops a few millimetres the hookbolt or latch binds against its strike.

Planning the levels
Together we list the doors, then decide who should open everything, who should open a floor and who should open one room. That structure becomes the keying chart.

Pinning to the chart
Every cylinder is pinned so the right keys work and nothing else does. We check each combination against the chart as we go, not at the end.

Delivering keys and the record
You receive the keys labelled by level, the chart and a plain explanation of how to add a door or retire a key later without redoing the whole system.

2021 census · what it means at the door
47%Homes of every age
About 47% of homes in Burlington were built in 1980 or earlier, according to the 2021 Census.
Homes of different generations tend to have different key habits. Older houses may have keys copied many times; newer ones may still have contractor keys about. A locksmith in a mixed area asks about both before recommending anything.
50%
Single-detached houses make up about 50% of homes in Burlington (2021 Census).
In areas of mixed housing, landlords may own a house here and a few units there. A locksmith can put all of it under one master system so the owner carries one key while each tenant's key opens only their own door.
