Triton Locksmith open, repair, and replace locks on filing cabinets, desk drawers, and office furniture for $45-$120. Lost the key? No problem. We pick the lock, make a new key, or replace the cylinder on the spot.
What Office Furniture Locks Do We Service?
Filing cabinets, desk drawers, credenzas, lateral files, and office storage units. Most use cam locks or wafer locks that we can pick open in under 5 minutes. We carry replacement cylinders for HON, Steelcase, Herman Miller, and most other office furniture brands.
The most common call is someone who inherited an office and doesn't have the key to the file cabinet. We open it, decode the lock, and cut a new key that works. Takes about 15 minutes.
Can You Make a Key Without the Original?
Yes. We decode the lock and cut a key from scratch. Office furniture locks use simple wafer mechanisms that can be read with a decoding tool. Once we have the code, we cut the key on a standard machine. No drilling, no damage.
If the lock is too worn or damaged to decode, we replace the cam cylinder entirely. Replacement cylinders for filing cabinets cost $15-$30 for the part. You get two fresh keys with the new lock.
