Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a locksmith cost?

Typical house lockouts range $75–$150. After-hours, complex locks, or long travel may increase the price. Always ask for a quote before dispatch.

How fast can a locksmith arrive?

Average ETA is 20–40 minutes in metro areas depending on traffic and time of day.

Is it better to rekey or replace locks?

Rekeying is cheaper and keeps existing hardware; replace when hardware is worn, damaged, or when upgrading to smart/high-security locks.

Can a locksmith make a car key without the original?

Yes. With the VIN and proof of ownership, many auto locksmiths can cut and program a replacement key or fob.

Do locksmiths install smart locks?

Yes. Many provide smart lock installs, setup, and training for mobile apps and codes.

Do I need ID for lockout service?

Yes. Technicians typically verify photo ID and proof of occupancy/ownership before unlocking.

Does AAA or insurance cover locksmith services?

AAA often covers car lockouts depending on your plan. Some homeowner or renter policies reimburse certain locksmith expenses.

Will unlocking my door damage the lock?

Professionals use non-destructive methods whenever possible. Drilling is a last resort for high‑security or failed hardware.

What payment methods are accepted?

Most providers accept major cards and cash. Ask about fees or surcharges before service.

Are rates higher after hours?

Emergency/night/weekend services often include a surcharge. Request a final quote including any after‑hours fees.
