Abloy Lock Installation & Rekey Nationwide | Novak Lock & Security Marietta

Abloy Lock Installation & Rekey in Marietta: What to Know First

We provide independent Abloy lock installation and rekey services in Marietta, with most residential jobs completed in a single visit and commercial master-key systems surveyed within 24 hours. Rekeying an Abloy cylinder typically runs $45-$85 per core, while full lock installation ranges $180-$420 depending on the series and door prep required. The price we quote on the phone is the price on the invoice - Haven Standard Clause 1, in force since 2002, prohibits our technicians from changing it at your door.

This page is for Abloy owners in Marietta who need a cylinder rekeyed after a move or employee turnover, a failed Protec2 or Sento lock replaced, or a new high-security installation on a residential or commercial property. We work on Abloy products as an independent Abloy service provider; we are not affiliated with or authorized by Abloy. Call (762) 252-5919 for a written estimate.

How Abloy Products Fail - and How We Fix Them

• Protec2 cylinders with sticky or intermittent rotation. The disc detainer mechanism in Protec2 cylinders is exceptionally resistant to picking, but the precision tolerances mean that dust and pollen from Marietta’s heavy spring oak and pine seasons can accumulate between discs. We disassemble the cylinder in a clean environment, flush with Abloy-approved lubricant (never graphite, which cakes in disc systems), and rekey if keys have been lost or compromised.
• Sento series latch misalignment after door settling. Sento locks are common on newer Marietta homes built 2015-2022, particularly in developments near West Cobb. The latch bolt can drift out of strike-plate alignment as frames settle on the area’s expansive clay soils. We diagnose whether the issue is the lock mechanism or the frame geometry, then shim or reposition the strike before rekeying or replacing the cylinder.
• Abloy padlock shackle seizure on outdoor gates and storage units. The hardened boron steel shackle resists cutting, but the internal mechanism is vulnerable to moisture intrusion during Marietta’s humid summers. We replace the core if rekeying is needed, or install a weather-resistant cover and rekey to match existing Abloy keys.
• Electromechanical Abloy locks (e.g., CLIQ) with battery or communication faults. These systems are not rekeyed in the traditional sense; the cylinder programming must be reset through the administration software. We identify whether the failure is electronic or mechanical, coordinate with your system administrator for credential reset, and replace the physical cylinder only if the mechanism has failed.
• Key duplication errors on Abloy high-security blanks. Abloy keys cannot be duplicated on standard key machines. We see Marietta customers who received poorly cut copies from hardware stores that lack the Abloy-specific disc detainer duplicators. We verify the original key’s bitting against factory specifications, cut a proper replacement on OEM or authorized aftermarket blanks, and rekey the cylinder if the bad copies have damaged internal discs.

Our Abloy Lock Installation & Rekey Process

1. 1
   Call and scope. We ask for the Abloy series name (Protec2, Sento, Exec, etc.), the number of cylinders, and whether you need rekeying or full replacement. The dispatcher quotes a firm price; no technician can alter it.
2. 2
   On-site diagnostic. The technician identifies the exact cylinder, pin stack or disc configuration, and any door-frame or strike-plate issues. Daniel Novak trains our crew to name the part before naming the price.
3. 3
   Parts decision. We stock common Abloy cylinders and cores. For rare or obsolete series, we source OEM or quality aftermarket equivalents with equivalent security ratings. We document the source and warranty terms in writing.
4. 4
   Service execution. Rekeying involves removing the cylinder, replacing the disc or pin stack to a new key combination, and reassembling to factory torque specifications. Installation includes door prep, strike alignment, and three-point function testing.
5. 5
   Documentation and warranty. You receive a written invoice, a photo record of the completed work, and the 365-Day Done Right Promise. The key combination is recorded only at your request; we do not retain copies.

We have installed and serviced over 60,000 locks, keys, and systems since 2002, every one with a written price before we started and a documented record when we left. Our technicians are background-checked, uniformed, and trained on Abloy’s disc detainer mechanics specifically - not just generic lock knowledge applied to a premium brand.

The 365-Day Done Right Promise applies to every Abloy job. If a rekeyed cylinder binds or a new installation drags, we return and make it right.
