How Padlock Service Works in North York
Assessment
We identify the padlock type, shackle diameter, and the best removal method for your specific situation.
Non-Destructive Attempt
We first attempt to pick, decode, or shim the lock open — the cleanest outcome that leaves everything intact.
Cutting (if needed)
If non-destructive methods aren't viable (high-security shackle, severely corroded lock), we use the appropriate cutting tool for clean, controlled removal.
Replacement Recommendation
We recommend and can supply a replacement padlock appropriate for your security needs and environment.
Key or Combination Setup
New keyed padlocks are tested and keys cut on-site. New combination locks are set to your preferred code.

Can you open a high-security padlock like a Abloy or Medeco?
