How It Works

Diagnose the mechanism

We determine whether the issue is worn tumbler pins, internal debris, or a loose housing.

Clean and lubricate

Internal components are cleaned of debris and treated with the correct lock lubricant — never household oil, which attracts more dirt over time.

Repair or replace worn pins

Where pins are worn beyond cleaning, they're replaced individually rather than swapping the whole cylinder.

Test under real conditions

We start the vehicle repeatedly and check key turn smoothness before finishing.

Why Green Cove Springs Chooses Us

Many of the historic homes near Spring Park still use original skeleton-key door hardware that requires specialized rekeying rather than standard residential parts. That local knowledge directly shapes how we handle every ignition repair call in the area.
