What started as door repair work has grown into lockouts, rekeys, lock installation, automotive locksmith service, security upgrades, and residential, commercial, and industrial hardware work.
Our technicians are licensed and insured. We explain the job, give honest pricing, and confirm the cost before dispatch whenever we can.

REAL CUSTOMERS, REAL REVIEWS
What people are saying
68+ reviews on Google — here are a few.
“I recently experienced a break-in at my home, which left my sliding back door in the living room severely damaged and stuck open for 48 hours over a long weekend. As you can imagine, this incident left me feeling extremely vulnerable and anxious. Enter Alex, the representative from Can Lock — from the moment he arrived, Alex exuded professionalism and courtesy. I was worried I would need to replace the entire custom oversized sliding door, but Alex provided repair options that restored the door to full functionality without a costly replacement. He also addressed the warped screen door and followed up to make sure I was completely satisfied. I highly recommend their services to the broader Ottawa community.”
“We have a larger sliding glass door that needed roller repair. Alex was quick to respond, as well as communicated extremely well. The price for the scope of work was well worth it. I would not hesitate to recommend Alex and Can-lock again.”
“Extremely professional, showed up very quickly and got me back into my house within minutes. Definately the right company to call if you get stuck and need a locksmith.”
“Alex from Can-lock was courteous and professional. He communicated every step of the way and showed when he said he would. He was quick to get the work done but was thorough and offered multiple options for our front door lock. While a bit pricey, the work was exceptional, so you do get what you pay for.”
“Excellent service repairing my sliding patio door. Alex was fast, efficient and knowledgeable. I couldn’t have asked for a better service technician.”
“Great service! They were super quick to take and return calls, especially for a weekend lock emergency! Highly recommended!”
“Great service. We had an emergency over the long weekend, called many companies with no luck, Alex arrived within an hour and opened our door.”
“I was locked out of my house tonight and I had dinner in the oven. I called Alex — he was doing his own shopping in Kanata and stopped to drive out and let me in. The kindest man ever.”
“I locked myself out in the middle of the night, and they were there within 20 minutes. Incredibly professional and seamless — they made a terrible situation feel easy.”
“We purchased a home with a patio door that had not been maintained — it was dragging on the track instead of rolling. Can-Lock repaired it and it now slides open with ease, good as new.”
“Alex did a great job changing all the locks on our new house. He was able to fit us in quickly and worked within our budget. Great work, highly recommend.”
“My key broke in the lock and I was locked outside late on Good Friday. Alex showed up ready to help — fast, efficient, and very friendly.”
“After locking myself out of my backyard shed, Google directed me to Can-Lock. Alex arrived on time and solved the problem efficiently and reasonably. Definitely 5 stars.”
“Excellent service, fast response and great communication. Alex came to the rescue on a Saturday, quickly fixing the issue. Highly recommend their services!”
“Highly recommend! Alex responded immediately and was very professional and courteous. Great customer service.”
