In Dothan, we focus on that single service: broken key extraction. We use tools and techniques that are standard in the trade, and we work with the same brands and materials that local hardware stores and builders have used for decades. There is no guesswork, no shortcuts. Each job is handled with the same careful approach, whether it is a simple house lock or a high-security deadbolt on a commercial building. ## The brands we service in Dothan We work on locks from the most common residential brands to the high-security names found on government and commercial buildings. Schlage and Kwikset are everywhere in Dothan homes, and we service them routinely. For older homes, you might find Yale or Baldwin locksets. For higher security, we handle Medeco, Mul-T-Lock, ASSA, and Abloy – each requiring specific knowledge of their pin systems and keyways. We also service Sargent, Emtek, and Sargent & Greenleaf (often on safes). No matter the brand, we have the key blanks, pins, and parts to match. ## Professional equipment & materials we use Our toolkit includes items that any professional locksmith will recognize. We use a key cutting machine to duplicate keys after extraction, a pinning kit to re-pin cylinders, and a plug follower to disassemble locks without damaging the pins. For extraction, a tension wrench and pick set help us manipulate the lock, but when the key is broken deep inside, we rely on a decoder and a key extractor – a thin, hooked tool designed to slide alongside the broken piece and pull it out. If the break is stubborn, we may use an impressioning file to shape a new key from a blank, or a drill and jig as a last resort. We stock key blanks for every brand we service, plus pins, springs, cylinders, locksets, deadbolts, padlocks, safes, door closers, and exit devices. All materials are sourced from reputable suppliers. ## The standards and safety codes we work to We follow established industry standards. When we install a deadbolt, we reference ANSI/BHMA A156 series to ensure the lock meets grade 2 or grade 3 requirements. For high-security locks, we use UL 437 listed products. Fire-rated doors in Dothan homes and commercial buildings require us to comply with UL 10C and NFPA 80 – we never drill or modify a fire door in a way that compromises its rating. We also follow NFPA 101 for life safety and ADA guidelines for accessibility, especially when replacing handles or locksets. Our work is done with the same methods taught by ALOA, and we hold credentials such as PRP (Professional Registered Locksmith) and CML (Certified Master Locksmith). Our suppliers are ISO 9001 certified, ensuring consistent quality. If you have a broken key in Dothan, call us for a straightforward extraction.
