Are you using the best locks on your doors?
There are many kinds of locks for many kinds of doors – but how do you know which door locks are right for your needs? To help make your decision easier, we’ve provided explanations on two types of door locks that we provide to customers that can help you determine what best suits your needs.
Cypher Lock: Used extensively in government offices around the world, Cypher Locks are vandal resistant. These door locks use keypads that are connected to a controller whose codes can only be changed by physically plugging different conductors into the controller in a specific order. Without having physical access to the controller (which is mounted on the secure side of the door), it is impossible to hack into these locks, as the controllers are not connected to a network, nor does a computer program them. If safety matters most to you, look no further than Cypher Locks for your business or your most precious belongings.
Push button Lock: If you are looking for keyless entry that’s very secure, but not quite as Fort Knox as a Cypher Lock, push button door locks are a solid choice. You, as the owner, set up the combination on the touch keypad and can only gain access into the lock with the correct code. Like Cypher Locks they also have no wiring and use extremely long-life batteries. Codes can be any combination of letters or numbers and can have more than one code to grant access if desired.
Their customer service and work has always exceeded my expectations.

I just left Eastway Lock & Key and had a pleasant customer service experience with Tristan Fields. He provided me with fast and accurate service. His demeanor was very friendly, professional and helpful! I have used Eastway Lock & Key in the past and their service and products have never failed or disappointed me. I've had numerous key making mistakes from Lowe's and Home depot that's why I choose Eastway Lock & Key. With time being so precious, it's always nice to know that when I come here I'll receive an accurate product! Tristan was great!

A terrific experience! Eastway locksmith Eddie was prompt, efficient, friendly. He explained everthing he was doing while replacing my very old and broken front door lock. He was even able to cut extra new keys for me on his truck.

Had a simple design yet difficult key to duplicate. When to 2 different places no success. Went to Eastway Lock and Key, Tristin met me, reviewed the situation and proceeded to make the keys. Eastway Lock & Key will be first stop……… always in the future. Reasonable prices included.

I've never had them cut a key that didn't work. Over 100 keys easily because I'm in Real Estate. Yes, they charge a little more than HD or Lowe's but those have an 80-90% fail rate in my experience. Buy local. Support small business. If you do happen to get a bad key/s they will gladly recut new ones for you. Bet you a dollar that never happens though.

These guys are serious about security. As a new homeowner taking over a Medeco lock system, I was appropriately required to present ID, deed, and release from previous owner in order to have duplicate keys made. Tristin was pleasant and efficient in completing the procedure.

So glad a friend told me about Eastway Lock and Key because I come here for all of my key copying needs. Tristin was so pleasant, professional and helpful plus he made 5 copies for me in record time! They sell great key accessories especially key rings of various sizes. I highly recommend them and appreciate their quality service.

I called about mid-morning needing a new deadbolt. Very friendly answer. After a few questions, they told me I could get my deadbolt rekeyed instead of a new lock. That saved me money which I greatly appreciated. Alex called a little after 1pm the same day and said he was able to come to my home then. We pulled in at the same time and within 30 minutes, I had my deadbolt rekeyed along with six new keys! Alex was very nice and professional. He was even able to take my old key and make it unlock the newly rekeyed deadbolt! I thought that was awesome because that particular key was a really cool design. Thank you, Alex! Thank you Eastway Lock & Key! You really made my day!

I had such a great experience in this mom and pop business where they treat you like you matter! I have a small chest that is a family heirloom. I never lock it because I don't have the key but a friend accidentally closed the lock. After many months, and many keys I tried, I finally brought the box in to Eastway. After some inspection, he figured out that the lock only needed to be pressed, and the lid would pop open! We both had a good laugh, and he sent me off, no charge. Would definitely patronize these guys again if I have the need!!
