Control the keys, not just the locks

Medeco makes high-security cylinders with patented key control. The company is based in Salem, Virginia, and belongs to ASSA ABLOY. Its restricted keyways provide a way to manage who can obtain additional keys.

A patented Medeco key cannot be duplicated at a hardware store or kiosk. Keys are stamped and logged. Cairn handles installation and service while keeping restricted key requests tied to the authorized contacts on the account.

Work on Medeco cylinders and keys

A restricted key system needs both functioning hardware and a clear record of who may receive keys. We address those parts of the job separately.

  • Install high-security cylinders

    We inspect the door and existing lock hardware, then fit the selected cylinder and test operation with the authorized contact.

  • Rekey existing cylinders

    We check the cylinder and key restrictions before recommending rekeying. Not every cylinder can be rekeyed.

  • Repair lock operation

    We check the lock hardware and door before recommending a repair. You approve the written price before work starts.

  • Replace or upgrade a cylinder

    We assess the existing lock, discuss the required key control and provide a written price for suitable replacement hardware.

Independent Medeco installation and service

Cairn installs and services Medeco hardware but is not an authorized Medeco dealer. Hardware warranty terms vary by brand and grade, and Cairn handles claims for parts it supplied. Our 12-month workmanship warranty covers qualifying labor on locks we install, rekey or repair.

Understanding Medeco key control

Restricted keys change how duplicates are requested and recorded. These are the details to establish before changing a cylinder or issuing keys.

Call (702) 000-0000All questions
Can I copy a Medeco restricted key at a hardware store?

Not when the key uses a patented restricted keyway. A hardware store or kiosk cannot copy it. Cairn releases new keys only to authorized contacts named on the account, following a signed request.

How are new restricted keys accounted for?

Restricted keys are stamped and logged. For Cairn’s restricted key accounts, keys are released to authorized contacts on a signed request. Records are retained in a locked file.

Can an existing Medeco cylinder be rekeyed?

That depends on the cylinder and the key system. The technician inspects the hardware and checks the account’s key restrictions before recommending work.

What happens if my Medeco lock needs replacement?

We inspect the existing lock and review the needed hardware with the authorized customer. A written price is provided for approval before replacement begins.
