Standard keyed locks are made to be affordable, not hard to defeat. If you want a lock that resists picking, bumping and drilling, and a key that cannot be copied at any hardware store kiosk, high-security cylinders are the upgrade. We recommend and install them for homes, shops and offices in Mill Basin, Marine Park and southeast Brooklyn.
What’s included
- Pick-, bump- and drill-resistant high-security cylinders
- Restricted keyways with patent-protected key blanks
- Reinforced strike plates and door-edge protection
- Keyed-alike or master-keyed high-security systems
- Advice on which doors justify the upgrade
What to expect
High-security cylinders add hardened pins, tighter tolerances and keys that can only be cut with authorization. That last point matters most for landlords and businesses: a restricted key cannot be casually duplicated, so you control who has access.
A strong cylinder in a weak door is wasted money, so we look at the whole opening. We assess the door, frame and strike, then recommend a package that fits the risk and your budget instead of selling you the most expensive option.

Typical arrival is about 1 hour in Mill Basin and Marine Park.
High-Security Locks FAQs
Are high-security locks worth it for a home?
For a front door, a ground-floor entrance or a property with several tenants, many customers find the extra resistance and key control worthwhile. We help you decide door by door.
Can I get extra keys later?
Yes. Extra keys are cut by authorized dealers, and we will ask for the proper authorization before making copies. That is what keeps the system secure.
Can you upgrade my existing lock body?
Often we can swap just the cylinder, which keeps cost down. We check compatibility on site.
