Toronto Top Locksmith repairs, rekeys and installs Baldwin locks across Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area, seven days a week. Call (647) 479-7764, describe the door and the lock, and you’ll get a price range before anyone is dispatched.
Baldwin sits at the heavier, more decorative end of residential hardware, usually solid brass, and is often fitted on doors where the owner cares how it looks as much as how it works. Repairing it is usually better value than replacing it.
Most of the time a Baldwin lock that has stopped working properly does not need replacing. Cylinders wear, springs tire, and doors move with the seasons so the bolt starts catching on the strike. All three are cheaper to put right than to rip out. We’ll tell you on site which one you’re dealing with, and if the hardware genuinely is finished we’ll say so rather than repairing something twice.
If you have just moved in, rekeying is almost always the right call. It changes the pins inside the existing Baldwin cylinder so every old key stops working, and it keeps the hardware you already paid for.
Everywhere we normally work, which is Toronto plus North York, Etobicoke, Scarborough, East York and York, and out into Mississauga, Brampton, Vaughan, Markham, Richmond Hill, Oakville, Ajax and Pickering. Everything is done at your door rather than in a shop, so the lock never leaves the building. The full list is on our service areas page.
Usually yes, as long as the new cylinder takes the same keyway. If it does, we key it to your current key so you are not carrying two. If it does not, the cheaper route is often to rekey everything to one new key instead.
Rarely. In most cases the cylinder, the latch or the strike is the part that has failed, and any of those can be changed on their own. Replacing the whole set only makes sense when the body itself is worn or the finish has gone.
Call (647) 479-7764. Tell us the make if you know it, or send a photo of the lock face and we’ll identify it. We cover the whole GTA from our shop at 525 Wilson Ave in North York, so most jobs are same day.
