The ten

  • Lockout openings for homes, cars and businesses, usually without damage.
  • Rekeying, so old keys stop working without new hardware.
  • Lock changes when a lock is worn or too weak.
  • New lock installation, including doors with no lock fitted yet.
  • Deadbolt upgrades for front, back and basement doors.
  • Master key systems for landlords and offices.
  • High-security cylinders with restricted keys.
  • Keypad and smart lock installation.
  • Car keys, fobs and transponder programming.
  • Safe opening and safe lock work.

Which ones you will need first

New homeowners usually need rekeying and a deadbolt check. Landlords lean on lock changes between tenants and master keys. Businesses need rekeying after staff turnover and repairs to busy doors. Drivers mostly call for lockouts and replacement keys.

What it costs

Every visit starts with the $29.00 service call fee shown on the price list, plus labour and any parts. The price list gives starting prices for each service; the locksmith confirms the price before starting.

Planning ahead saves money

Combining jobs in one visit means one service call fee. If you are rekeying, ask about the deadbolt on the back door at the same time.
