Equipos y materiales profesionales que usamos

Our work relies on professional-grade equipment and quality materials. We use a taladro (drill) when necessary for removing old locks, an extractor de cilindros (cylinder extractor) for stuck or broken cylinders, and a máquina de copiar llaves (key copying machine) to duplicate keys accurately. A cortador de llaves (key cutter) ensures new keys are cut to factory specifications. For lock manipulation, we carry a pistola de ganzúas (pick gun), a descifrador de combinaciones (combination decoder), and a kit de ganzúas (pick set). We also use a calibrador (caliper) for precise measurements, pinzas (pliers) for gripping small parts, and destornilladores (screwdrivers) for assembly.

Materials we use include cilindros (cylinders), cerraduras (locks), llaves en blanco (blank keys), bombines (euro cylinders), pestillos (latches), bisagras (hinges), resortes (springs), and tornillos (screws). For maintenance, we apply lubricante de grafito (graphite lubricant) or silicona en aerosol (silicone spray) to ensure smooth operation without gumming up the mechanism.

Las normas y códigos de seguridad que seguimos

We follow recognized industry standards to ensure that every lock replacement meets safety and performance requirements. This includes the Norma ANSI/BHMA Grado 1 and Norma ANSI/BHMA Grado 2 standards, which grade lock strength and durability. Grado 1 is the highest for commercial use, while Grado 2 is common for residential entry doors. We also adhere to Norma EN 1300 and Norma EN 12209, European standards for high-security locks and mechanical locks, respectively. Norma ISO 9001 reflects our commitment to quality management processes. Our team holds Certificación ALOA (Associated Locksmiths of America) and Certificación CRL (Certified Registered Locksmith), which demonstrate professional training and ethical practices. Additionally, we follow Norma UNE 41500, Certificación CEN, and Certificación VdS, which are relevant for high-security installations in commercial settings. These standards guide every step, from selecting the right lock to verifying it is installed correctly.
