It depends on the service and time of day. For basic services like rekeying or house lockouts, costs typically range between $75-$150. Late-night or emergency calls may have additional charges, especially during weekends or holidays. We always aim to give you a quote upfront so there are no surprises.
Our average response time in Tucker and nearby neighborhoods is 20-30 minutes. It could be faster if one of our techs is already in your area. We always try to keep you updated with a live ETA once the dispatch is confirmed.
Absolutely. Every technician on our team is fully licensed, bonded, and insured for your protection. You're trusting us with your home, car, or business - and we take that seriously.
Yes, we do. Whether you're locked out at 3 AM or dealing with a broken key on a holiday, our emergency locksmith services are available 24/7. We understand that emergencies don't wait for business hours.
First, stay calm. Then call us right away. Don't try to break a window - it usually costs more than a professional unlock. Our technician will arrive quickly and use non-destructive methods to get you back inside.
Yes, we can! If you've lost your only key, our mobile units can create a new one on-site, even for most modern cars. Just make sure you have proper ID and proof of vehicle ownership.
Programming a key fob depends on your vehicle make and model. Most jobs fall between $90 and $250. If you're shopping around, make sure you're comparing services that include both cutting and programming.
Yes, we handle key fobs and smart keys for push-start cars as well. We keep up with the latest technology, so even if your dealership says "dealer only", give us a call - we might save you a tow and a headache.
Yes, we can rekey or replace all your home's locks in one visit. Many of our customers choose to do this after moving into a new home or after a roommate change. We can also upgrade your locks to high-security options if needed.
Rekeying keeps the same hardware but changes the internal pins so old keys no longer work. Replacing involves new hardware and is usually chosen when locks are damaged or outdated. We'll help you decide what's best for your situation.
Absolutely. We install all major brands of smart locks and can walk you through how to use the app, set up codes, or sync it with your home automation system.
Yes, we do. From commercial rekeying and access control systems to panic bars and door closers, we help keep your business secure without disrupting your operations.
Of course. If you're locked out of your office or retail space, we'll arrive quickly and get the door open without damage. Business lockouts are more common than people think - and we're ready to help anytime.
We work with offices, retail stores, warehouses, clinics, churches, and even schools. If it has a door or lock, we can secure it.
We don't recommend it. YouTube makes it look easy, but one slip can damage the lock or door frame, leading to higher repair costs. Save yourself the trouble and let a pro handle it.
For many homeowners, yes. Keypad locks are convenient, eliminate the need for spare keys, and let you assign temporary codes to guests or service providers. It's a great upgrade for rental properties too.
