Whether business or personal, there is a reason for a person to own at least one cabinet or desk that is protected with a lock. But what happens if you own such a cabinet or desk and you lose the key? Is there a remedy? You could break into the cabinet or desk. However, that is not advised because you will ultimately need to repair or replace it and that may prove to be costly. The best option is for you to contact a locksmith, like Mobile Locksmith. We are able to pick the lock so that you can quickly get to what you need. However, this is a temporary remedy.

Replacing your lost desk or cabinet keys.

If you lose the key to your desk or cabinet, write down the brand name, model name, style of the item and note if it is vertical or lateral.

Of course, you can plan ahead and ask our locksmith to make a copy of the key so you have one on hand if you lose the original.
