The doors in Aurora
Aurora is mostly detached housing with a compact older core. The blocks around Yonge and Wellington include genuinely old houses, some heritage designated, where the front door is original and the hardware has to be chosen with that in mind. Bayview Wellington and the Aurora Highlands are newer subdivisions on standard builder hardware. Detached garages and garden outbuildings are far more common here than in the city, and they are the doors most often left on a padlock that has rusted solid.
What we get called for in Aurora
Rekeys after a move and house lockouts make up most Aurora calls, with a steady run of garage, shed, and outbuilding locks that have seized after a winter. Businesses along Yonge Street in the old part of town call mainly for cylinder changes and door closers.
Worth knowing before you call
On a heritage door in the old part of Aurora, replacing the lock outright is often the wrong move. Boring a modern deadbolt into a hundred-year-old door is not reversible, and in a designated property it may not be permitted at all. A rekey of the existing hardware, or a cylinder swap inside the original case, usually solves the actual problem, which is that you do not know who else has a key.

Locksmith in Aurora: common questions
Do you really come out to Aurora at night?
Yes. Aurora is the northern edge of what we cover and we go there at any hour, up the 404 to Wellington. We will confirm on the call that we are coming before you are left waiting on it.
Can you free a padlock that has seized on a shed or garage?
Often yes. A padlock that has stiffened over a winter can frequently be freed and put back into service. Where the shackle or the body has corroded past that point it is cut off and replaced, and we will tell you which of the two it is looking like before we start.
Something not covered here? Call (289) 460-1916 and ask. We would rather answer it on the phone than have you guess.
Other cities we cover
Not in Aurora? We cover nine other cities across the Greater Toronto Area from the same shop in North York. If your address is near a boundary, call (289) 460-1916 and we will confirm it.
