Lock and key work in South Boston

Southie has a mix of triple-deckers, renovated condos and new apartment buildings. Condo conversions often mean new owners want every lock rekeyed, and many add smart locks for convenience. Bars and restaurants along Broadway call about back-door hardware and rekeys when staff change. Street parking can be tight in summer, so tell us where the van can stop.

Getting a technician to South Boston

Technicians are dispatched from our base in Boston 02109 and cover South Boston, from the Broadway area to City Point. Arrival times in South Boston depend on traffic and the calls already in progress, so ask for an estimate when you call 617-206-2137.

In triple-deckers and two-family homes, tell us whether the problem is the shared front door, a porch door or your own unit door. If the owner lives on site, they may want to be there when shared-door locks are changed.
