Real Questions from Real People

• How much does a locksmith cost? Depends what you need. We give upfront prices with no surprises.
• How to get a broken key out of a lock? Don't yank it! We have tools to remove it cleanly without wrecking the lock.
• Can you open a locked door without damage? 99% of the time - yes. That's kind of our thing.
• Can you rekey locks instead of replacing? Absolutely. It's cheaper and works just as well in many cases.

Let's Talk Locks, Keys & Common Sense

We get asked this stuff a lot, so here's a mini crash course:

• Types of locks: Deadbolts, smart locks, keypad locks, padlocks, and garage locks.
• Types of keys: Regular house keys, high-security keys, car remotes, key fobs, and even weird shaped ones.
• Keyless is great - but make sure your battery doesn't die. We can always help if it does.
• Garage door installation cost varies - but if it connects to locks or keypads, we can usually help or recommend a pro who can.

Don't Google "how to pick a doorknob lock" - that never ends well. Just call us instead. It's faster and doesn't involve coat hangers.
