Re-registerMul-T-Lock in Vancouver, explained plainly.
What being an authorized dealer means
Mul-T-Lock keyways are patented, so a hardware counter cannot legally cut a copy. Only an authorized dealer can, and only against the key card issued when the system was set up. We are that dealer, and your registry is kept here, not at a distributor in another province.
That is the real product. The mechanics are excellent, but what you are buying is the ability to say, on any day, how many keys to your door exist and who signed for each.
Interactive+ explained
Each pin is a pin inside a pin, so a pick has to set both layers at once, and a sidebar has to line up at the same time. Hardened inserts stop the usual drill attack.
It suits multi-unit buildings, clinics, offices, server rooms and any building where an insurer or auditor asks who holds a key.
MT5 and MT5+ explained
MT5 is the newer platform, and the one we usually specify for a new system. It keeps the pin inside a pin, adds a different sidebar and puts a moving element in the key itself.
The difference that matters to an owner is how long it lasts. The MT5 patent runs further into the future, so your key control does too. Both platforms take full master keying, and MT5 can be added to an Interactive+ building door by door.
Restricted key copies: what to bring and what it costs
Bring the key card and one existing key. A property manager can send written authorization naming the person collecting instead.
Copies are $30-$80, cut to registered code, usually the same day on a stocked profile. Rekeying a cylinder to a new combination is $60-$120 per cylinder. Plain house keys are a different job: see key cutting.
If you lose the key card
Tell us straight away. We reissue only after checking ownership against the original install record, and that is slower than cutting a key on purpose: the card is what controls your copies.
Where Mul-T-Lock fits on the door
A cylinder is half a door. In a soft jamb with a short-screwed strike it buys key control and little else, so we reinforce the strike and frame on the same visit: see high-security locks.
Where the door itself is the weak point, a multi-point steel door with a Mul-T-Lock cylinder is the full answer: see Superlock doors.

Questions, answered.
Still unsure? Call 604-734-7233. A real person picks up.
How does Interactive+ compare with MT5?
Both are top-tier restricted platforms. MT5 adds a third locking element in the key and runs on a newer patent, so for a new system we usually specify MT5.
Can I get a Mul-T-Lock key copied in Vancouver?
Yes, at our shop, with the key card and a key or written authorization from the registered holder. Copies are $30-$80.
What if the dealer who set up my system has closed?
Bring the cylinders’ details and proof of ownership. In most cases we can re-register the system with us.
Can Mul-T-Lock be added to my existing master key system?
Yes. It can be added door by door, at the doors that need it most, rather than converting the whole building.
Will a Mul-T-Lock cylinder fit my existing lock?
Often, yes. Rim, mortise and euro versions cover most lock bodies. We check before quoting.
