Key cutting & commercial key copying in Ottawa & Gatineau
Request spare keys for suitable residential or commercial locks. Describe the key type, the number of copies and any authorization requirements.
Spare keys and controlled key systems
A working original key helps assess a duplication request. Restricted or controlled systems may require documentation or a particular authorized process. Tell us whether the key is for a home, office, shop or shared building and whether it is damaged. Copying a worn or damaged key should be assessed rather than assuming that every copy will solve an existing lock problem.
What to tell us when you call
For key cutting & commercial key copying, give your exact address in Ottawa or Gatineau and describe the problem or planned change. Share the make and model of the relevant hardware or vehicle where possible, whether access is currently possible and when you need the work.
Say whether the request is urgent or planned. Availability for specialist work, compatible hardware and parts is confirmed for the specific job. We take enquiries 24/7 and provide service in English and French.
Assessment, pricing and authorization
This service is quoted according to the work, hardware, parts and circumstances. The advertised car and residential door opening rates apply to those lockout services; they are not prices for this work. The complete calculation is explained before work begins.
The service call charge is $30 CAD and is payable for a dispatched call. Applicable taxes are extra; a $50–100 time or location surcharge may apply. Confirm the requested work and any parts with the technician. Identification or proof of authorization may be required.
