What we handle

Home lockouts: Regain access to your house quickly, using non-destructive methods whenever possible to protect the door and frame.
Lock rekeying: Change which key operates your locks, ideal after moving in, losing a key, or ending a tenant arrangement.
Deadbolt installation: Upgrade to a Grade 1 or Grade 2 deadbolt for stronger resistance against forced entry.
Smart lock installation and setup: We install keypad, fingerprint, and app-connected locks and walk you through pairing and user codes.
Broken key extraction: Remove snapped key fragments from the cylinder and cut a replacement on the spot.
Door hardware repair: Tighten, adjust, or replace loose knobs, handles, and strike plates that have worn over time.

When to call a locksmith instead of DIY

Forcing a door yourself risks bending the door frame, breaking the bolt, or damaging the weatherstripping, all of which cost more to fix than a service call. Rekeying also requires the right pin kit for your specific brand and can void a lock warranty if done incorrectly. A professional visit lets you know the actual condition of your hardware and whether a repair or a full replacement makes more sense financially.

Pricing factors

Costs vary by the type of lock, the number of cylinders being rekeyed, and whether any hardware replacement is needed. We quote you the full price before touching anything, so there are no surprises when the job is done.

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to rekey a house after moving in? +

Most homes take 30 to 60 minutes depending on the number of locks. We rekey all locks to a single new key so you only need one.

Can you install a smart lock on any door? +

Most standard door preps accept a smart lock deadbolt. We check your door prep before installation and let you know if any adjustment is needed.

What if my key broke off inside the lock? +

We extract the broken key fragment without damaging the lock in most cases, then cut you a new key on the spot if the lock is still functional.
