We clean, oil and test all of our lock boxes to make sure that they are fully functional. If needed, we may be able to match a skeleton key. We also may be able to match a strike plate. Please let us know if you are needing additional parts. It is best if we can match parts up while we have it in hand so that we can make sure everything works together properly.
