NLS Security for Your Key Cutting Requirements

Stephen Wylde • Jul 16, 2018

When it comes to security, there is nothing more important to a homeowner than to know where to turn for secure property access and protection.

This includes the ability to safeguard your house if a key is stolen, lost or damaged, and to ensure quick and easy entry if you become accidentally locked out. For these purposes, finding a good and trustworthy key cutting service is vital. We suggest that you look no further than NLS Security for all your key cutting needs. Based in Newcastle upon Tyne, the company has a retail outlet right in the centre of town where customers can wait in comfort to have their new keys made, while enjoying complementary refreshments.

Why Might I Need New Keys?

There are a great many reasons why you may need to have new keys cut. If, for example, you run into the misfortune of snapping a key, bending it, wearing it down or losing it irretrievably - by dropping it down a drain, for example - you might just find yourself with no means to access your home or gaining entry to whatever door or container the key was for. You may require your lock changing as a result of a break-in or accidental damage, and new keys will naturally be required to allow you to use the new one. On the other hand, a more positive reason for needing a new key cut may be that your partner or new housemate is soon to move in with you, or you’ve decided that a young person in your charge is old enough to be trusted with their own means of coming and going.

How Do We Cut Your Keys at NLS Security?

We use the most up to date laser cutting techniques to ensure that every key we produce fits its lock perfectly, or serves as an exact replica of one that you provide for duplication. Keys can be quickly and efficiently cut in store while you wait, but we also provide an emergency service in the event of an individual getting locked out of their home or business premises. This service is available on location 24 hours a day, you can rest easy in the knowledge that we’ve got you covered. We can even cut new keys for your vehicle.

How Much Will it Cost to Cut My New Keys?

Luckily, NLS Security has an online form available right here on their website that allows you to specify what kind of key you need and how many of that type are required.
