American Star Locksmith – Residential, Commercial, and Automotive Services
Our 24 hour locksmith service is available day and night, including weekends and holidays. In selected service areas, response times can be as fast as 25 minutes, depending on location, traffic, and technician availability.
Our mobile locksmith services cover both urgent problems and planned work. Our completed projects include cylinder rekeying, keypad lock installations, push bar replacement, and commercial access control upgrades.
Residential Lockouts, Rekeying, and Lock Replacement
If you’re locked out of your home or dealing with a lock that won’t open, we provide on-site assistance. We also replace locks and cylinders and install keypad locks for customers who want keyless entry.
Rekeying is another option when the existing hardware is in usable condition but you need a different key to operate it. This changes the cylinder’s internal configuration while retaining the existing lock hardware.
In a documented project in Newark, we rekeyed a customer’s existing cylinder, supplied two new keys, and checked their operation before completing the job. This is the kind of focused service we provide when a full lock replacement is unnecessary.
Door and Lock Repair
A sticking lock or a door that won’t latch securely needs a careful assessment. The problem may involve the lock itself, its fit within the door, or alignment with the strike.
We assess damaged locks and door hardware and discuss the appropriate repair or replacement options. For commercial entrance upgrades, our documented work includes checking the door frame, existing lock preparation, strike area, and alignment before fitting new hardware.
The goal is a door that closes properly, latches securely, and allows the lock to operate as intended.
Commercial Locks, Push Bars, and Keypad Entry
Our commercial locksmith service supports stores, offices, and other business properties in Paramus. We handle emergency lock problems as well as planned hardware replacements and entry upgrades.
Our work gallery includes push bar replacement, combined keypad and push bar installation, cylinder replacement, and rekeying. These services address different needs, from replacing worn hardware to changing how authorized users enter a business.
If a malfunctioning lock prevents you from opening your premises or securing them at closing time, call us for assistance.
Commercial Access Control Upgrades
Our commercial experience also includes converting an existing mechanical lock to an electronically controlled locking system.
For a business in Moonachie, NJ, we upgraded an aluminum-and-glass storefront entrance with an electrified Adams Rite deadlatch connected to a Keyscan access control panel and an HID reader. The completed system supports access cards, key fobs, and mobile credentials while retaining the existing door.
That project included testing door closing, latch alignment, electronic release, and credential operation. For a Paramus business considering a similar upgrade, contact us to discuss your existing entrance and access requirements.
Car Lockouts and Automotive Key Services
We also provide vehicle lockout assistance and automotive key services. Our published work includes a Chevy truck lockout in Englewood, along with key copying, replacement, and key fob programming services for various vehicle models.
When calling about a vehicle, provide its make, model, year, and the problem you’re experiencing so we can discuss the appropriate service.
